Panoz Avezzano

PANOZ Avezzano

One of the last remaining old-school front-engine, rear-wheel-drive sports cars powered by a V8 engine and featuring a manual transmission, the Panoz Avezzano replaced the Esperante nameplate without completely changing the model's original recipe. Panoz is mostly known as an American carmaker that builds road models mostly to fund its racing endeavors, much like Ferrari was in its early days. That said, the Avezzano is in many way the street-legal version of a racing car, with its GT4 version competing in the Pirelli World Challenge championship.
