The Kode 0 broke cover at last year’s Pebble Beach
Concours d’Elegance, as a retro-inspired supercar with modern underpinnings. Designed by Ken Okuyama, the man
behind some legendary creations such as the Ferrari Enzo, it is based on a
Lamborghini Aventador, to which it adds a custom carbon fiber bodywork.
Said to tip the scales at 1,550 kg, or
25 kg less than the Aventador S, the Kode 0 is powered by the same
naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine as the Italian supercar that churns
out 700 PS and is mated to a single-clutch, seven speed
semi-auto gearbox.
The Kode 0 initially changed hands for a 7-digit
figure, and now it’s being sold again. The ad posted by ClassicCarDriver reveals
that the one-off supercar is still in pristine condition, and has barely been
driven since it was unveiled in mid-2017, with the odometer showing just 2,200
km.
The car dealership hasn’t divulged the asking price
of the Kode 0, but we contacted them and found out that it costs 150 million
yen (US$ 1.34 million / € 1.17 million).
The same seller is also in possession of the Kode
57, a Ferrari 599-based creation, which uses the same 6-liter V12 engine,
massaged by Novitec to deliver 700 PS. It’s the vehicle that
preceded the Kode 0, has 21,700 km on the clock, and its
condition is being described as “new”.
The asking price of the Kode 57 hasn’t been made
public either, but we were informed that it’s listed for 200 million yen (US$ 1.79
million / € 1.57 million).
