Starlight Garage presents the one-of-a-kind and a sports car made in Greece!
Tested by Tommi Makinen!

Idea presented by my Greek friend, CostasDrifter

Greek car brands rarely pass by. The range of supercars is certainly scarce, and I think it will remain so since Greece is not represented in the global supermarket for sports cars.
These Korres Project 4 will be in fact the only one copy which will appear on the asphalt.

For that matter architect/inventor Dimitri Korres can therefore change very little on the low level of Greek sports cars. That there is only one copy is in the offing is regrettable, because let this sports car now just have a grueling naturally aspirated 7.0 -liter eight-cylinder seven-liter V8 engine straight out of the old Corvette Z06 under the hood.

The sports car sprint with just about 510 hp in 3.8 seconds to 100 km/h. His top speed will be around 295 km/h, determined not wrong . With its total weight of 1,600 kilogram, 3920 mm length, 1960 mm wide and 1250 mm high, it is not particular a light car.

The fear that you crack your bumper when climbing a speed bump you can refer to the afterlife, because the ground clearance can increase 400 mm (adaptive suspension) with just one push of a button. Yes, the car has adjustable and adaptive suspension inspired by that of the Citroen 2CV.

The car can also be raised and fitted with different tires (two extra ones on the rear hatch, just in case) and then be driven on Baja-style courses at fairly high speed. It even has all-wheel drive and can rock-crawl quite successfully. With 400 mm of ground clearance the might be very high on its legs to stand.

The design itself is actually good, giving the Project 4 a strong aggressive stance, anyway this unique Greek car will certainly put Greece on the sports car map.


UPDATE:
  • You can choose RWD or 4WD locked to 33%-67% by a button in cockpit.
  • The height of the car is adjustable from 5cm to 50cm from the ground.
  • The joint of suspension of each edge is surprisingly large as a wheel can be raised up to 95cm from the ground with the other three to have contact with the road.

If it has Tommi Makinen's approval, then how can I not vote this... Car-like thing with weird suspension? Seriously tho, the fast sandrail potential is strong in this one.
 
Interesting. Can't argue with a Corvette engine. But you say it's not light at 1600 pounds. Don't you mean kilograms?
 

Since you are a Greek, do you maybe know something more about this project.
Specifications an perhaps when it goes in production? Anything I could use as a update.
Many thanks for your reply.
:cheers:
