Some of you may recall Jim Glikenhaus posted here about a year+ ago introducing his new Mark 'SCG" ( Scuderia Cameron Glikenhaus ) and car 003S.. (Haven't been able to locate the old post. ) I got to see it first hand on Sunday. It is a spectacular wicked machine !! . The car starts at $1.5 million.. There was a nice show with some unique cars.. He also had his Enzo based modern version of the Ferrari 4/5 . That car is still spectacular after all these years.

I had the pleasure of running into Tim Cantwell, Kim and Garrett who happened to be in S. FL for the boat show,, I had a nice lunch with them !! Two treats in one day !! :biggrin

Looking at that cabin, Im thinking NVH wasn't high on the list of priorities (humor intended). Bet its fun to drive!

I see they also use the Porsche idea, different colored lug nuts for CW vs CCW threads.

Glickenhous - $1.5M, 750 HP/2900#. No racing pedigree, mediocre uninspired design. How much more for optional paint? Interior?? LOL

Ford GT looks a compelling value proposition by comparison - by the way, it won it's class at LeMans.

Looks like a serious track performer. Is it a running a BMW engine?

Cool, but frankly I'd rather see more pictures of JG's GT40 Mk IV.

Wasn't a V6 originally planned for that car?

It does have racing pedigree. That very car at the show raced in the 24 Hour Nurburgring twice, as a street legal race car.

Just a perspective.

Pedigree to me, is a bit more than 'I competed in a race'. I believe pedigree is more about the ability to dominatie in a highly contested, OE environment/class. FGT also ran a full series in IMSA and WEC in 2016, narrowly missing a manufacturer championship in year 1 (B of P considered). And I guess the fact that I could conceivably own 3 FGT's for one of the SCG cars for the same investment. Exclusive yes, compelling story/value and car; for me, no.

Just my perspective.

I believe it was originally going to have a V6 and V12 that were interchangeable.

That was the original concept when he posted here awhile ago..

I know the effort & cost of those two Glikenhaus projects were huge but I don't like the looks of either one.

PS That was cool to have a Cantwell Family & Stormcat lunch!
