Eastern Bloc Supercar. Tatra MTX V8
Was on Jalopnik earlier and discover there is a Czech supercar from the early 90's being used in a new rap video.
Tatra MTX V8
(In the early 1990s Czech famous designer Vaclav Kral started work on a sportscar, the MTX (Metalex) Supersport V8 equipped with an air-cooled mid-mounted V8-engine from the Tatra T613. He chose this engine to pay tribute to the great Tatra tradition and show that the Czech people can still design and build incredible pieces of engineering. The 4000 cc 327 HP engine is of the type T624 used in the Tatra T624 fast ambulance of the NAREX racing team. The Tatra-engine, mounted on top of the rear axle, gives the MTX Supersport V8 a top speed of 270 km/h, acceleration 0-100 km/h in 5,8s.). MTX produced only 6 pieces (1 in USA, 2 BRD, 3 CZ) and the price was cca 100.000,- EUR.
