2006 AC Cobra Weineck 780 cui Limited Edition
Bad Gandersheim, Germany, is the home of Weineck
Engineering, manufacturer of the world’s most powerful, strongest and best
accelerating road – legal car. Highly visible: The gigantic airscoop of the
engine bonnet is really a necessity since it and the engine bonnet cover V8
with a cylinder capacity of 780 cui (or 12.9L).
The first turn of the key activates a gigantic
high-pressure fuel pump. To tromp and release the accelerator pedal means more
than half a litre of finest nutrition (fuel) have arrived inside the ultra
high-performance carburetor system to feed the devil, that is Weineck’s custom
milled V8 engine.
From 0-300 km/h in just 10 seconds! That
is not only possible by using the strongest, naturally aspirated
engine ever built for a road car.
Power is nothing without control! That’s why the
Weineck Cobra 780 cui Limited Edition is being built using a MIG welded, self-supporting
tubular frame with a 4inch diameter to absorb very high torsion forces created
by the engine. Additionally, its body is deep drawn from carbon composite
materials for maximum rigidity.
Single wheel suspension including a continuously
variable coil spring system in conjunction with a specially engineered Brembro
brake system guarantees an individual set-up suiting individual driver’s
preferences resulting in high-precision driving and braking.
The 4-speed extra high-performance gearbox,
driveshafts and rear axle (equipped with a 75% limited slip differential) are
designed for more than 2,000 Nm of torque!

Edition will be designed individually to meet any customer’s wishes. Normally,
finest British leather is being used for the upholstery of he seats. All
colours, pipings and sewings can be individually chosen. The rest of the

classic Smith instruments are being used.
In case of rain, the car is equipped with a soft top
to protect both the driver and the interior. If requested, a fixed hardtop is
