Callaway C12s were built to a high standard, not a cost. They were optimized for the regulations at Le Mans. Today, they are still fast, beautiful and now, collectible. C12 are extremely rare as only 20 street cars were ever built. Owners have included Dale Earnhardt Jr., Otis Chandler, Andrew McKelvey, Ely Callaway, Rick Hendrick and Tommy Mottola.
Callaway C12 was a totally hand built car from the ground up. Built by IVM in Germany, the body was carbon fiber and much lighter, wider and lower than a factory C5 Corvette and the suspension was replaced with Callaway suspension arms and double coilover springs.
This car, was 1 of only 2 Spiders and owned by Otis Chandler, late publisher of the LA Times. There were 20 cars total. 100% German Leather and Lamborghini paint
1999 cost = $250K. GT2 Pole 2001 LeMans beating Ferrari & Porsche.
Only when you are rich and have nothing better to do with your money would be the only reason I could think of that you would spend your money on that.
@jamesjdm stfu u pussy ass queer theyy do that and have made that as their own car O& jdm is gay as hell u can get the smae hp out of your cars normal motor by buying a better air filter and tuning the engine without anything else so y waste 5000-10000 on a jdm piece of shit
very ugly but at the same time it should be very fast (see the aerodinamic) and powerful... if alzo it looks like a tuned car. I ddn't know this model before, but it looks rare. 4/5
oh thanks for the info. Hey i heard american cars are all about flash, and not particularly low-maintenance and durable. is this true? generally speaking of course.
that car looks so badass, almost like something out of gta hahah. i hope it has the performance to back up the looks, although somehow I doubt it... i'd be surprised to hear if all of that aero is functional. also, convertables never handle the same as coupes.
How do you find Lamborghini, Ferraris, Audi on the road, but I know most of your videos are in automobile shows but how do you find those cars in just 1 second ( I know it's not just one second lol) but do you have some kind of "supercar tracker" or something?
Only 19 C12s were made, and 2 race cars
