If you’re looking for a truly
unique-looking car to add to your collection, this BMW M6-based Fisker Latigo
is just for you. The car you see right here is a true unicorn, as, apart from a
prototype, it’s the only one ever built. Penned by Henrik Fisker, the Latigo
was supposed to have a production run of 150 cars, but no other cars were
produced by Fisker Coachbuild after car #001.
Based on the chassis and
mechanical parts of a 2006 BMW E63 M6, the Latigo benefits from the naturally
aspirated V10 engine that’s paired to the seven-speed SMG transmission.
However, the 5.0-liter V10 was rebuilt and tuned by RD Sport in order to
produce a claimed 665 hp.
The unique sports coupe features
hand-built bodywork made out of lightweight aluminum and carbon fiber. A set of
20-inch, 10-spoke Fisker alloys rounds up the revisions on the outside. The
interior is completely re-trimmed with custom leather and an Alcantara
headliner and rear package shelf. Billet aluminum accents have replaced the
factory plastic pieces in various spots. The seller notes that the rear window
and shelf were replaced in 2014. There is also a special badge showing that
this was supposed to be #001 out of 150 Latigos.
The car, which is auctioned by
Bring A Trailer, has covered 23,000 miles in total, with the current owner
responsible for the last 3,700 miles over his six-year ownership. According to
the invoice from the original build, the initial price of the Fisker Latigo was US$ 216,846 but this doesn’t include the cost of the donor car.
