Bucci Special '13

​

The Bucci Special, which made its debut at the 2013 Buenos Aires Auto Show, is the dream of the late Argentinian Formula One driver Clemar Bucci. Bucci is a racer in the golden era of Juan Manuel Fangio, Argentina’s legendary F1 racer that used to be behind the wheel of a Ferrari. He started to work on the car in 2011 but passed away before it was completed.

It's Clemar Bucci's nephew, namely Paul Bucci who took the initiative to continue the project until it actually happened. The design is quite futuristic with the concept of a very low windshield. The performance is otherworldly, those massive side vents feed a 7.3-liter V12 built by Mercedes-Benz’s AMG performance division. It’s the same engine used in the Pagani Zonda, and Pagani is rumored to have supplied the Bucci’s transmission as well.

...Weird looking, but unsurprisingly, it's rather remarkable too.

I'd love to see South American countries (other than Brazil) getting more representation in GT and this would be a welcome addition. 👍

It got an AMG 7.3! What else would you want?

It's strangeness is really appealing 👍

I love the watch style dash dials.
