Maserati MC12 Corsa-a whopping 1 million Euros

Maserati gives Ferrari the blues:

Maserati is building a rival to Ferrari’s extreme FXX track car-and unlike the MC12 racer it’s based on, private buyers will be able to order one.
The only catch is the MC12 Corsa costs a Bugatti Veyron rivalling 1 million euros plus tax, and you will either have to be invited to buy one or convince its maker you are not just after one to turn a quick profit. Maserati expects to produce 12 of the Enzo-based track cars per year. It’s not road legal, and unlike the MC12 GT1 has not been homologated for racing.

Unshackled by any championship rules, it boasts more power, 747bhp, compared with the GT1’s 591bhp. It also has two seats over the race car’s one. These pictures, taken from a leaked brochure, show it looks quite different from the GT1, with new air intakes and aero package, plus front wing indicators.
The GT1’s race box has been replaced by a version of Maserati’s Cambiocorsa box. The standard issue colour is Blue Victory, but buyers can personalise their cars with other paint and adjustable dampers, and have the option of annual technical upgrades from the factory.

For MC12 Corsa owners worried that they won’t get to race them next year, Maserati plans six events across Europe specifically for the car. For 260,000 euros (178k pounds), you get a season’s entry, which includes tyres, fuel, servicing and even “leisure clothing”. Form a queue here…
