2001 Sbarro Seb-Millennium Coupe
The Seb Millenium coupé, exhibited on the Sbarro stand at the 2001 Geneva Motor Show, is a classically styled sports car by comparison with some of Sbarro’s past creations. It has an air of Jaguar, yet its origins are American. Yet its underside hides a Ford powertrain derived from a Mustang SVT Cobra. The 4 valves per cylinder V8 engine develops 400 horsepower. The tires are no slouch: 18″ at the front and 285/35 in 22″ at the rear. Such a diameter in 2001 was exceptional. The bodywork is made of polyester, as usual at Sbarro. The front end, with its oval grille, is reminiscent of a Jaguar. The lenticular headlamps are topped by a body-colored longitudinal bar. The mirrors seem to originate from the hood boss. There is a single windshield wiper. The roof is fixed, but looks like a hard top. The rear pillars are pierced by four large holes. The rear end is massive, with four round lights and two large tailpipes.
