Lucra
L148
The
boutique car maker out of California is back with another track-ready beauty
for the new year. After debuting their Lucra LC470 last year, the brand we’ve
quickly fallen in love with introduces their new model, the 2015 Lucra LC148.
Just
like their 2013 offering, Lucra opted for a carbon fiber constructed body, and
shoved a powerful V8 engine under the hood. But this isn’t just any standard
V8. This is Chevy’s 4.7 liter LS7 V8, the same one used in the Z06. The setup
creates a monstrous 700 horsepower, and helps the 2-door sprint to 60 miles per
hour from a standstill in just 2.5 seconds. Although their 2013 model started
at US$ 85,000, Lucra is raising the price on the L148, and interested buyers
can expect to spend in the ballpark of US$ 250,000 when the vehicle begins hitting the
scene during the Spring season of 2014.
