It’s been a few years since Spada released their Codatronca TS,
but the now famous Italian car designer is back with an open top
version of their supercar. The new model is called the Monza and will
be making its grand debut at this year’s Top Marques Monaco.
The Spada Codatronca Monza will more than likely feature the same V8 engine
found in its older brother, the Codatronca TS.
- A TS "Sport Tourism" with 512 HP engine
- A TSV "Fast Sport Tourism" with 513 HP
- A TSS "Sport Super Tourism" with 700 HP
- FAST FACT: TSS "Sport Super Tourism" was even capable of a 211 mph top speed, unfortunately, it never saw the light of production day.
The only variant that successfully stomped across the production
line was the tamer of the three - the TS - which brought in $425,000 per
unit. It is rumored that the Monza version will feature a larger power
output than that of the TS, with a probable 630 hp at 6500 rpm and 492
lbs-ft at 4800 rpm.
UPDATE 07/11/2011: topspeed.com finally unearthed the official engine spec of the Codatronca
Monza, one that features a supercharged 7.0-liter V8 engine with 710
horsepower and 701 lb/ft of torque mated to a six-speed manual
transmission,
- 0-62 mph in 3.0 seconds
- Top speed of 208 mph
After unveiling the Codatronca Monza at the Top
Marques Monaco, Spada has also released a new picture gallery of their
latest 720 HP supercar. Enjoy!
UPDATE 11/14/2011: YouTube member, Marchettino,
was lucky enough to capture the Spada Contronca as it makes it way
around a track. The best part of the video is the soothing engine
sounds and the up close and personal shots of the sports car itself. Enjoy!
