2008 Maserati MC12 Versione Corse review and pictures

Maserati MC12 Versione Corse review:

The MC12 Versione Corse is based on the Maserati MC12 GT1, the legendary race car which won the FIA GT Manufacturers’ Championship in 2005.

Total production of the Maserati MC12 Versione Corse is limited and amounts to only 12 cars worldwide.
Maserati delivers each of these cars without street homologation.

The Maserati MC12 Versione Corse presented here is the first one of the series 12 (serial number #01).
In a second step the appropriate changes were carried out and with a one-off homologation the car
now has a German street homologation.

Truly unique: something money cannot buy. Its appearance: unbelievable. Its performance: unrivalled.
The opportunity to drive it on the street: priceless!
