Though I don't know it for sure I suppose the first car is called "Lockwood Special 2 seater".


Paul Jaray

That is where I took that pic from, but I've never heard of a Lockwood car!

Allemano

Does that mean you have a different name?

Paul Jaray

As I wrote I have no-name about these.
I found the 1st on the cover of that book and the second in the pictures of an event that took place in the north of Italy...
I suspect you are right about the 1st.

That registration number is now on a Lotus!
Opinionated but sometimes wrong

Paul Jaray

So the1st is a Lockwood...what about the 2nd?

guido66

The 2nd looks like a Lotus Elise, modified to look like an Enzo

Paul Jaray

I suspect it's just a mock-up, but don't know much more...

Paul Jaray

The unmodified pic shows just a word: "Extrema".


Allemano

I think there are still some letters hidden...

Paul Jaray

I took this pic from the net, it was an event in Italy...but I just cut the lower part of the pic...

Allemano

Is there even more toilet-paper? ;D

Here's a detailed description of number2:
Supercar dal design sportivo Extrema, della factory Extrema Car propone una carrozzeria in fibra di carbonio e titanio, che garantisce un rapporto ottimale peso/potenza per prestazioni da brivido. Il mix dei due materiali ha permesso di ottenere una monoscocca con un peso di soli 80 kg. Lunga 407 cm, larga 187 cm, con un'altezza di 112 cm, Extrema propone interni essenziali e confortevoli allo stesso tempo, con sedili avvolgenti in carbonio. La propulsione è affidata a due motori di derivazione motociclistica di cc. 1300 l'uno in grado di erogare oltre 450 CV di potenza totale a 12.000 giri/min. Il cambio è sequenziale a 6 velocità, comandato elettronicamente da due paddle sul volante.

Le sospensioni sono a gas con comando di tipo pushrod parallele tra di loro e sono regolabili a seconda del tipo di guida, mentre i freni vengono morsi da pinze a quattro pompanti della Brembo. Le prestazioni dichiarate indicano una velocità massima di oltre 300 km/h per uno scatto da 0 a 100 km/h in soli 3,5 secondi. Il fondo dell'auto è carenato e comprende componenti di aerodinamica studiati per garantire un effetto suolo a velocità elevate. L'auto completa mantiene un peso complessivo di circa 800 kg.
La vettura sarà commercializzata a partire dal 2010 al prezzo di € 70.000,00.

From the official site:
 
"EXTREMA
This italian supercar is a frist progect for extrema car company.
The first model car in italian with a 2 engine rear monted,the first with a monocoque carbon fiber and titanium.
Making this unique model,not a replacement for another and an addictionto the exterema car company.
A product of the time-honourded relationship whith an italian designer,which penned the exterior,this model heralds a new era for the italian exotic car.with its own in-house design centre headed by MIRKO SOLDAN.While the centre is still under costruction,from the very near future it will play an increasingly decisive role in the development of the formal language that sets extrema apart from all others."this is a small creative centre which is destined to grow"notes MIRKO "it is a crucial tool for the our future".And while it may be a tool for the future,it has alredy made its mark on the extrema.
It all began in early 2007,as this was a new car,we focused on identifyng the right dimension and interior spece,working straight from the start with full scale models based on the packaging specification given by designers.Then in 2008 we turned our attention to the style.That same year we signed of some of the volumes,such as the doors sistem,but the rest of the car was still evolving to some degree.
In 2008 we were still working on the details in order to achieve the effect we were looking for.the result is a car with a side view defined by a long swooping bonnet contrasted by a short tail volume,with an aftward-shifted cabin in a harmony of concave and convex forms,with the surfaces of the flank coming together in the tail to form a compct
The firm want to enter into the market of english cars with an italian production
The market is for two seater sports cars,witha back engine.
Cars are built with a tubular chassis and these cars have a body by fiberglass.
Builder firms use this method to assure a relation weight/power very higt,so they can have elevated performance.
We have produced a super sport car with the use of progressed technologies and with the job of specialized engineers,this super car will become a new leader for the italian and word market in this category.
The firm market is for commaisseurs that cam judge all qualities of this.
The client can personalized his car.
We have planned the monocoque with another material,the titanium.
Another builder,near modena famous in the word use this material.
With the combination of these materials (titanium and carbon fiber)we have got a comlplete monocoque of only 80kg.
For our aim,with a structural text software we have head a resistance to torsion of 23000/nm.
We can see that our result are elevated if we compare our staticsto other statics of other builder firms.
These statics are very important and they are the starting point that we have used to develop the car.
The car will satisfy everybody also exating clients infact the car has an italian style and at finally it has an exellent technology"
