Gordon Murray T.33

Shocked it's not fully sold out.

Makes sense cab gets auto box as they're more for cruising than coupes.

 

Many thanks for the reminder. Must be exciting day

 

Roof panels fits under the front bonnet.

Agree, the T.33 Spider is gorgeous.
The paddle/auto for the T.33 Coupe was canceled, as too few owners picked it. For that reason, I doubt there will be X-Trac paddle shifts available for any of the different T.33 versions.

 

Simply the demand for paddle is not there.

Road going autobox, though the box is already developed for T50S, needs quite tweaking I believe.

I wanted them to make spider paddle only for the sake of differenciation, but we know GM. He doesn’t care.

Now it is the coupe buyers who will bite the bullet for not waiting for spider. Good to have ordered both but it seems quite numbers of coupe will be available once spider is out.

The last varient will make any sense? I don’t know. But without stripping more weight out of coupe, which in itself a very very hard job already at this point, simply making downforce machine with bits of aero will not be accepted well.

Also, paddle has its own merit. Shorter gear ratio always means fun busy drive. I really wish they provide paddle for spider.

Oh thanks Jonathan for the link. I am having trouble connecting at GMA website. Many thanks

 

Its my fav car he makes but still too close for comfort to lotus elise styling. I'm sure in person will be spectacular and quite different but at over 2m dollars I want fotos look extraordinary too.

 

I think once people see these shapes in the flesh much will change.

 

Thanks Jonathan for the extra two YouTube links and the T.33 Spider Specs

 

Good looking car and not full of aero rubbish everywhere

I made an inquiry to purchase the spider about a week ago but never heard back. According to Road and Track only half the cars are spoken for. I called Canepa to see if they knew anything (they were the US sales agent for the T50 and T33 coupe). They thought the car might be allocated via some sort of lottery system. Anybody know anything further?

 

Thanks for sharing

 

Call GMA and ask for Henry Winkworth-Smith.

 

Got ahold of him last night (LA time). Thanks.

 

Nice discussion of T.33 Spider design decisions.

 

post #208 above?

 

Gentlemen- If you have a T33 Coupe or Spider on order, message me and I’ll add you to the private group.

 

nope, my post was from the Harry's Garage Series.

 

I take it back, the whole lot of them hadn't loaded. I'll delete.

 

The spider is a half million dollars more than the coupe - thats crazy
