World Preview of the Maserati MC12 Versione Corse
Making its debut at the Bologna Motor Show is the Maserati MC12 Versione Corse, a car designed to offer a highly select clientele the chance to try their hand at driving one of the most extreme supercars now available on the market.
The MC12 Versione Corse is based on the MC12 GT1 which won the FIA GT1 Manufacturers' Championship in 2005, the Team Championship in 2005 and 2006, the Drivers' Championship in 2006, and two consecutive editions of the Spa 24 Hours, in 2005 and 2006. The main differences between the two vehicles are: the 755 horsepower (MC12 Versione Corse) compared to the 600 horsepower (MC12 GT1), electro-hydraulic Cambiocorsa in the Versione Corse compared to the manual gear change in the GT1, the passenger seat in addition to the driver's seat fitted to the Versione Corse.
The MC12 Versione Corse is available in the official "Blue Victory" color, but it can be customized on request with a number of optionals, including colors and livery, manually adjustable shock absorbers and data acquisition.
The price (identical for all markets) is EUR1,000,000 plus taxes. It is marketed worldwide starting from December 2006.

The Product

- 755 hp vs 600 hp
- Power/ratio (Kg/hp) 1,52 vs 1,83
- Cambiocorsa electro-actuated gear box vs sequential gear box manually operated
- Two seats vs single seat
The MC12 Versione Corse is not homologated for road use or any racing activity.
The specific technical features do not allow the use on public road, as the characteristics of the car don't match the safety and emission rules of normal models.
