As you settle into MotoGP from Indonesia, F1 (and F2 & F3) from Bahrain and Indycar from Texas, relax with your morning espresso and enjoy Motorsport Prospect’s Last Lap. This week I have everything from 3D printed hypercars, rare Porsches, three opportunities to own Formula 1 history, a Ferrari speedboat, a lap of Sebring and so much more. Now this is the way to start your day!
The Czinger 21C is Insane
The Czinger 21C is a 3-D-printed, 1250 HP hypercar beast with a top speed of 281 MPH. “The 21C may not be a zero-emission hypercar like the Nevera, but Czinger has tried to make it as eco-friendly as possible. The vehicle’s V-8 was specifically designed to run on a number of different fuel types. This includes carbon recycled methanol and e-fuels, which could eventually bring its emissions close to zero and at least much lower than your average gas guzzler.” Only 80 will be manufactured so get your name in there now.
Take a Lap of Sebring
I suspect that you have been watching the “Super Sebring” races over the weekend so you will enjoy this. Go for a lap of Sebring with Brendon Hartley in the No. 8 Toyota GR010 Hybrid.

The Dupont Registry has a list of the rarest limited production cars you can buy today if you are not interested in waiting for the release of that Czinger 21C.
Ride Your Ferrari On The Lake
This 1990 Riva Ferrari 32 is currently for sale. It is a limited edition that was dreamt up by Enzo Ferrari and the chairman of Riva, Gino Gervasoni. Only 40 were ever made, and the brief was simple: From the side strakes to the sound system, turn the Testarossa into a boat. All the other cottagers will be green with envy…
