Wiesmann Stateside by 2010

Not sure if this has been posted before; just stumbled across it this morning.

I absolutely love this car.

Gorgeous car! I'd take mine in black with black interior and red accents.

 

Great looking cars - saw some at a show in London a while back

I love how they've managed to combine huge wheels with a small car without making it look ricerish.

 

Better looking than pretty much everything else out there right now... Id buy one of those for $120k easy

 

These are very nice cars, I visited the factory about 2 years ago, they were very friendly, it was an unexpected visit but they showed me the complete factory.

Some Wiesmann pics which I took in france:

I drove the car last spring and i can tell you that the car feels and sounds very good.

 

When I was at the factory they told me that 98% of the roadsters was build with the M3 engine, they only produced one car with the 2.8 engine that year. What did you think of the build quality?

yes it was the m3 engine... Hard to say about the quality witch only about 1hour behind the wheel. That only worries i found was that i could hear some windsounds from the windscreen. But the engine and gearbox feels really good. I found it quite dificult to park to. Hard to see exacly where you have the car.

The leatherjob in the car was perfekt...

 

Did you drive the manual version or the version with SMG gearbox?

 

Manual... wasn't time to drive the smg too.

 

great looking car...but reminds me of a morgan aero 8 a little

 

Do you think that if Jaguar had come up with this design instead of Wiesmann that they could have sold any? The grille looks alot like a XK120-140 to me.
