PGO Speedster II

I'm sure that this was covered once upon a time, but I've never seen it before or heard anybody mention it. Is anybody familiar with PGO? Not my style, but still pretty cool.

A few more pics

PGO is a hand built car company in France that was in major hot water with Porsche and we thought a few years back that this was a sign of things to come over on this side of the water. They have taken the classic look of the 356 and modernized it. The car is not fibreglass but some kind of polymer. The company regularly shows at the Paris auto show. The company is publicly traded and makes one of the most beautiful cars out there.

The car runs on a Peugeot 2L engine with 138HP and can go to 180HP.

If you go to Monaco you could rent one at , http://www.roadsterz.com/pgogalerie.htm

Cost 38.000

Cool pics Brian!

That PGO has a classic foundation with subtle yet noticeable mutations and yet strangely appealing, kinda like me!

Peace - Out!

I like it!!!! Wonder what the specs are and if it compatible with our frames?

PGO has great eye apeal ...other than the odd shape of the black pictured top.

"TE ya listing?" The norm tends to get boring ...This is a great canvas for your recent purchase I would think way out of the box and go for one like this.

Here are a few more pictures of the PGO assembly plant. I think they are asking over 60K for a car......Michael

Post all you have they are great!

Thanks Justin.

The PGO has had my attention for some time now, other than the dash, I think this car would be a much desired replica here.

PGO seems to have done a good job. Unlike a precise replica, this car would seem to be in the same group with cars such as the retro Thunderbird or perhaps the 2005 retro Mustang that Ford produced. It takes the 356-theme and carries it forward with modern mechanicals and sculptured body design. I think this is important part of the automotive industry

I've thought about doing a CMC body to the PGO styling but it becomes too labor intensive. If they were to be available here and in a kit form I would be first on line.
