Anteros American Sports Cars Images




California based company n2a Motors announced today that it is now taking orders for its latest model, the Anteros.

Anteros Coupe & Roadster are both built on the 2009 Corvette platform and feature a unique ligtweight carbon composite body in Italian design, hand-stitched leather interior, three-piece aluminum wheels and a custom cat back exhaust.

Anteros Roadster is built on the stock 2009 Corvette C6, featuring the 430 hp/424 lb.-ft. torque LS3 V8 engine. Anteros Coupe is based on a 2009 Corvette Z06 and is modified with Lingenfelter’s 630 hp performance package.

Both the Coupe and Roadster take approximately 12 weeks to build from the time of order. Basically n2a craftsmen remove the Corvette’s bod panels and install the new carbon-composite Anteros body.

The interior is entirely new with re-contoured leather seats, leather dash, Italian carpeting, and leather-wrapped interior panels, while the wheels and exhaust are removed and replaced with n2a’s custom-made components.
In 2003, John & Joann Rothman desired a car that didn't exist in the marketplace. They wanted a sports car of uncompromising beauty, power and elegance. One that drew inspiration from the classic 60's era of sports cars, but would stand alone today as a modern design. Under the direction of Chief Designer: Roger Hector, a team of talented sculptors and fabricators, including award winning graphic artist: Frank Burris, brought the Anteros to life.

Anteros uses the base engineering of the C6 platform as a foundation to create this 550 horsepower rolling sculpture in carbon fiber and luxury leather.
