Bizzarrini 5300 GT Corsa Revival Completes Milestone 24th Model in Exclusive VBV Green
Within a mere 24 months since the prototype of the Bizzarrini 5300 GT Corsa Revival was unveiled, a significant milestone has been achieved: the creation of the 24th and final car, a truly unique masterpiece, specified in the exclusive Bizzarrini Verde Bosco Ventiquattro (VBV) colour. This hue, a tribute to the brand's rich heritage, is a nod to the original Le Mans-winning car of 1965, a symbol of automotive excellence.
The colour choice, deeply rooted in Bizzarrini's history, is not a mere whim but a result of a painstaking process. It draws inspiration from a Concours-winning original owned by an American collector. Granting access to the car, he allowed the bespoke team to gather samples, resulting in a modern-day match, just like with the limited Bizzarrini Rosso Corsa editions. The team even tracked down an original panel preserved in darkness, perfectly replicating Bizzarrini Rosso Corsa 222 for the Revival Edition, a testament to our commitment to authenticity and heritage.
Crafted with a lightweight single-piece composite body over a steel frame, each Revival car meets FIA Appendix K regulations with a six-point roll cage and safety fuel cell. Featuring a front-mid engine layout, independent rear suspension, and all-round disc brakes, powered by a period-specific 5,300 cc V8 producing over 400 horsepower, the Bizzarrini 5300 GT Corsa Revival boasts a power-to-weight ratio comparable to modern supercars.
Building one bespoke 5300 GT Corsa Revival monthly at their UK facility signals the maturity of the business as they prepare to launch the all-new Giotto hypercar. Designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro and Fabrizio at GFG Style, it revives a 60-year-old brand partnership. Focused on driving engagement, the Giotto will feature a bespoke Cosworth-designed V12.
Simon Busby, Bizzarrini CMO, stated, "The 5300 GT Corsa Revival reintroduced the Bizzarrini brand to the elite automotive world. As this chapter concludes and they gear up for the next, their focus shifts to delivering a worthy successor: the Giotto."
