Spada Codatronca Monza One-Off Unveiled [w/ video]

Source: Spada | Published: Fri Jul 15, 2011

Spada Codatronca Monza one-off sports car has been unveiled in Italy. The car has been designed by Paolo, Ercole Spada and Domiziano Boschi of Spadaconcept and built by Spadavetturesport. This special vehicle has been ordered by a company called Aznom, which apparently deals with "the world of luxury" and is a corporate partner of Spadavetturesport. Aznom wanted a special, Moza-dedicated car for their corporate events and to "strengthen the connection between the world of car design and luxury".

The one-off Spada Codatronca Monza is based on the 2008 Codatronca coupe but has more extreme characteristics: its design and racing interior bring back memory of the 1960s spyders.

Aznom chose Monza because of its strong attachment with the city that houses its historic venue and the famous track Autodromo Nazionale Monza.

Codatronca Monza will only be a one-off vehicle, but Spadaconcept will produce a spyder (barchetta) version of the Codatronca on demand.

Codatronca Monza has a tubular chassis made of aluminum that has been coated with a carbon-fiber and composite body. The engine is a 7-liter V8 and has been developed by Italtecnica. Two rotrex centrifugal superchargers help deliver an incredible 720 hp and over 700 lb-ft (950 Nm) of torque.

The car is able to reach 60 mph from standing start in only 2.9 seconds (in first gear). Top speed is 208 mph (335 km/h).

The weight of the car is only 2600 lbs (1,180 kg). In part, the low weight is due to the lightweight racing interior with Sabelt seats and the Aim steering wheel that integrates the instrumentations with data acquisition (can, GPS). The on-board camera Aim Smartycam records HD videos with the overlay of the telemetry and data captured by the steering wheel.

The technical package is completed with the performance Pirelli PZero Corsa tires mounted on lightweight OZ Ultra-leggera wheels. The brakes and fully adjustable suspension system had been derived from the systems used in the FIA GT3 race cars.
