The supercar Leblanc Caroline GTR is a real racing car, which can also be driven on public roads.
The Leblanc Caroline GTR is built with the newest technology and materials to a very light and powerful car. The layout of the carbonfiber monocoque is made to insure high rigidity and security. Carbonfiber is also used to make the bodywork. Other parts of the chassis are made with titanium or magnesium. With the 2 litre turbo race engine with 512 bhp and a weight of only 1731 lbs, the car accelerates with slicks under 3 seconds to a speed of 62 mph and needs a little bit more than 7 seconds to a speed of 125 mph (with street tires a couple of seconds longer).
With this kind of potential, the Leblanc Caroline GTR really belongs on the racing track. That it is street legal, is almost sensational.
The car can also be ordered with a supercharged V8 engine with 540 bhp and a torque of 517 lb-ft at 3400 rpm. Almost each customer demand can be fulfilled, even the installation of a modern Formula One engine is possible.
The design of the car follows the function of speed and the driver can't forget, that the car could come directly from the race track, even if you are cruising at the coast, on the highway or you enjoy the car in the curves of a mountain street.
