Page 1 of 1 Star of the 2002 Essen Motorshow, was Wiesmann's fixed-head concept. For the first time in the small German manufacturer's history, they presented a coupe bodied car. Like their roadsters the 'GT' relies heavily on BMW mechanicals. But unlike their roadsters it is powered by a V8 engine instead of the 'sixes' used in the open-top Wiesmanns. The complete chassis is constructed from aluminium, resulting a very low curb weight for a car its size.
The GT shown on the Essen stand was a prototype of a production car to be developed throughout 2003. Production should start in the fourth quarter of 2003. The elegant lines of the prototype will only be changed in details for the production car's body. Page 1 of 1
