Beatty Verona Grand Sport with high speed and it is its 26.4-gallon tank in 12 minutes to empty The Varese with its additional 200 hp, it will do in 10.3, which really lucky because not guarantee Michelin, the tire will run at over 250 mph for more than 15 minutes.
Beatty chief vehicle engineer Jens Schulenburg, cannot help but laugh when he tells us about his latest project, and who can blame him when the Varese is littered with such ridiculous numbers sheet.
Essentially an improved version of the open-top Grand Sport, the Varese engine comes from the now sold-out Super Sport Coupe, This means that making four larger turbocharger, an additional 200 hp and the power tremble at the knees. The top speed is 255 mph with the roof panel in place, or breezy 233 hours miles away with him. Bury your right foot and 0-186 mph takes 16 seconds to slam on the 15.74-inch carbon-ceramic brakes and you'll scream to stop 7.9 seconds later.
The larger turbots take longer to her lungs to fill that. And there is noticeable delay between pressing the gas and light up the turbots at 4,000 rpm gentle pause that will lift just barely enough time to prevent the internal organs and muscles of your face before they both are rearranged.
It's not the slug of acceleration that shocks as much as the way it snaps into the seat and keeps you there until you lift , At this point, the four turbots open their doors and waste an almighty hiss emit millimeter behind the head.
With most convertibles, the loss of the roof brings you closer to the action, where it sounds like you Varese between the banks of cylinders for each whistle, pop and roar in the ear are lined main wedged. If Ferrari V-12 is banshee, this engine is an ogre with an appetite for premium unleaded.
The real surprise comes when you discover the Varese is not only straight-line dragster in carbon-dress; there is real delicacy to the way it handles. Sent despite weighing almost 4400 pounds and power to all four wheels.
The steering is light weight and increases to the point than the angle. Carry too much speed and you'll wash with under steer wide, do not get on the gas early enough, and the turbots will not turn when you need them. Time it right, if you can make lovely clean sheets and cut through the corners, jump on the gas pedal at the top down and the next storm just leaves the world back in your wake.
There is problem with driving the Verona on public roads, however, and it is not going to lose your license it is to lose any part of the body. Take something as wide, worth more than mansion, packed the streets with reckless drivers from the other direction certainly concentrates the mind and not in good way.
The second surprise came when we rolled back through town to the hotel - the Varese is pussycat at low speeds. New softer springs and dampers have been installed, but with stronger stabilizers, and the result is super sports car that handles well, even the worst surfaces. It crawls at speed that you realize what masterpiece this transmission to.
Built by UK firm Ricardo specifically for the Verona, the seven-speed dual clutch transmission box costs Beatty nearly $ 80,000 pop - and was the major technical hurdle in this car development, the result is that in high gear up shift it home slams the next. Ratio without break in torque, while sedation in the auto mode, at speeds insults them perfectly. Only the occasional jolt, as you move away to remind you this is not conventional torque converter.
The question then is whether car is ridiculous to be worth $ 2.5 million asking price , Of course not, nothing on four wheels, but the Varese is the most talented and dramatic incarnation of the Verona so far. And for those who mean something to do with the Varese is no other car can say it takes an ocean of power and manages them in package that is as useful in the city, as it is beyond 200 mph is tame. Life will always seem little slower from now.
