Only 10 units will be built and they are exclusive for the Japanese market.
This suggestion was made by JogoAsobi the man behind the GT6 Seasonal Event Threads.
England’s standard-bearer for lightweight, frill-free zip has been making a serious push into the Japanese market lately. First, they released the 160R, a three-cylinder Seven with a footprint small enough for it to fit the country’s kei car specification. Now they’re launching a Nihon-only version of their 250R in the form of the Kamui Kobayashi Limited Edition.
Designed with heavy input from the F1 driver whose name it bears, The KKLE features the 250R’s 125-hp Ford 1.6L engine paired with a six-speed manual that routes power to a limited-slip rear end.
With that powertrain, Caterham claims 5.9 seconds to 62 mph and a top speed of 112 mph.
After that, things get racy. The 10 cars to be built are single-seaters equipped with an aluminum tonneau for the passenger side of the cockpit. The finish is gloss black with matte stripes and the wheels are special diamond-cut, black-finished 13-inch models.
It’s like, how much more black could this Seven be? And the answer is . . . well, it, it’s got those snappy green carbon-fiber fenders. So it could be blacker. To go with the personal-hairshirt nature of the car, it’s got a single-sided roll hoop, a carbon-fiber seat with a four-point Takata harness, Kamui-special gauge inlays, and a number 10 plastered on the nose. You know, so you match Kobayashi’s CT05 F1 car.
