2000 Ultima GTR
The GTR is very much a supercar. Small car, massive V8, light weight, insane acceleration. Yep, it is crazy. The chassis can be custom outfitted with any shortblock V8. Some Ultimas have been turned upwards of 1000 bhp! The aerodynamics have been wind tested to 220 MPH. The car can be sold rolling without engine or in parts.
The Ultima GTR is the quickest accelerating and decelerating supercar of all time and multiple world speed record holder.
The exciting Ultima GTR road car is the result of over 25 years of extensive research and development and is a product that takes the Ultima marque to sensational levels of fit, finish and performance. The world renowned GTR really is a supercar in every sense of the word which has officially humbled every last mainstream car on the planet bar none. The GTR has been crowned as the quickest production car in the world, beating the likes of the Bugatti Veyron, Ferrari Enzo and McLaren F1 to a plethora of world speed acceleration and deceleration records.
The Ultima GTR has also been independently timed around the Top Gear test track and was found to be a blistering 6.2 seconds per lap faster than the Ferrari Enzo and 4.0 seconds per lap faster than the Bugatti Veyron SS, staggering the onlookers witnessing the remarkable feat!
The ultra clean look of the GTR and the faultless self-coloured gel coat bodywork has not been achieved through luck, but rather by design. The production car feel of the Ultima is immediately apparent, from the specially moulded headlight housings and covers to the immaculate panel fit and lack of any external body catches. Huge wheels front and back fill the wheel arches declaring it’s performance potential while items such as the purpose-made electric wing mirrors combine to create the complete picture. The sensational appearance of the car has been applauded by designers and connoisseurs alike.
For an Ultima owner, having an involvement in the car’s construction and thus knowledge of every nut, bolt and component on the car makes every journey in the Ultima not merely an experience but an event. The sheer road presence that an Ultima commands has to be seen to be believed.
In short the Ultima is the weapon of choice for the car enthusiast that not only wants to own the quickest car on the planet but also wants to experience the intimate knowledge of the car of his desire.
