This unique Italdesign concept from the late 80's
has recently become available for sale for the hefty sum of € 999,880
(US$ 1,055,323). The ad was posted on Mobile, revealing that after all this time,
the concept has clocked just 7,000 km and that it was first
registered in July of 1992, four years after it was built.
The listing also mentions that the Aztec is packing
250 PS, although other sources indicate that its Audi-sourced 2.2-liter
five-cylinder unit produced 200 PS. Other features include its four-wheel drive
system being derived from the Lancia Delta Integrale and a 5-speed manual
gearbox.
In terms of performance, the Aztec had a top speed
of 247 km/h, reaching the first 100 km/h in 7.7 seconds. Inside,
you'll find a navigation system, JVC Hi-Fi system, electrically-adjustable side
mirrors, leather steering wheel, AEG headphones for the driver & passenger
and 4-point belts.
Designed by Giugiaro, the Aztec was unique in the
way it was configured, with the driver and passenger separated and forced to
communicate electronically via those previously-mentioned headphones.
