  • The Super Rare Sports Car From 90s Almost Nobody Knows!
    The Venturi 260 APC, a rare French sports car that dared to challenge the automotive giants of the early 1990s. In this video, we delve into the history, design, and performance of this hidden gem from Venturi Automobiles.
    Founded in 1984 by two ambitious French engineers, Venturi set out to create high-performance cars that could compete with the likes of Porsche and Ferrari. Their journey began with the Venturi Coupé in 1986, but it was the 260 APC in 1990 that truly put them on the map.
    We'll explore the 260 APC's sleek aerodynamic design, featuring a low, wide stance and carefully crafted body elements that not only looked stunning but also enhanced performance. Learn about the innovative additions like the deeper front spoiler and distinctive rear wing that improved stability and handling at high speeds.
    Under the hood, the 260 APC packed a punch with its turbocharged 2.8-liter V6 engine. We'll break down the impressive specs: 260 horsepower, 0-60 mph in just 5.2 seconds, and maximum torque available from a mere 1,750 rpm. Discover how this powerplant, combined with a rear-wheel-drive layout and finely tuned suspension, created a car that was both exhilarating on the track and comfortable for daily driving.
    Step inside the 260 APC as we examine its driver-focused interior, balancing luxury and sportiness with customizable trim options. We'll discuss how Venturi's attention to detail and willingness to personalize each car added to its appeal among enthusiasts.
    Despite its impressive capabilities, the Venturi 260 APC faced an uphill battle in the competitive sports car market. We'll look at the challenges Venturi encountered, including financial struggles and fierce competition from established brands.
    With only 188 units produced between 1989 and 1996, the 260 APC remains a rare and coveted piece of automotive history. Join us as we celebrate this underdog of the sports car world and the passionate individuals behind its creation. Whether you're a car enthusiast or simply appreciate tales of ambitious underdogs, this video offers a captivating look at a unique chapter in automotive history.

      The V6 installed in the venturi models, (200, 210, 260, 300 BHP) had absolutely nothing to do with the original engine, the French PRV, which had also equipped the De Lorean, in a much less powerful version of only 135 BHP. Everything, or almost, had been modified, or changed by the Venturi factory. Pistons, camshaft, connecting rods, new injection system, etc... So much so that Venturi had it homologated as their own engine. Much more powerful versions of 500 or 600 BHP had even been developed for the racing Venturi's, during the 24 hours of Le Mans, for example.
      Venturi factory total production during 14 years, 1986/2000, was a little bit less than 700 cars, in the historical factory located near the city of Nantes, on the French Atlantic coast. In 2000, the brand was purchased by the Monegasque billionaire Pastor, and transferred in Monaco, southern France. Today, the company still exists but produce only electric cars, mainly for records.

    For a few years I owned the only green one in the UK so if you google 'Venturi 300 Atlantique' and its comes up with a green one RHD and reg number R3PPB - then thats the one - its been sold a few times since - last time was up for £48K. I had a switch fitted under the dash to turn the fans on when it overheated - which it did after three minutes in traffic - the pop up headlights had a neat trick - if you flashed someone one would pop up - then the other would pop up then one would go down and the other would stay up - I worked out that I did more miles towing it back to Osellii in Whitney on a trailer than I did driving it and it was always a 'body off' affair with an invoice to reflect that. However on the extraordinarily rare occasion it worked it was sublime, one of the best handling cars I have ever had, which includes some exotica including a Dino and a Lotus Elise and a TVR Cerbera - fond memories but no thanks - not again - in fact not ever !!

    YES! The Venturi prototype appeared in the cover of Motor Trend back in the mid eighties, and I've been hooked on it ever since. It used components for bigger brands to increase reliability: Renault engine and brightwork, Mercedes-Benz single arm windshield wiper, Citroēn power mirrors, etc. And the cabin was much more comfortable than most other exotic cars.

It was designed as a V8 but the 1970's energy crisis caused the three companies involved to build a V6 instead. It was a very reliable engine, but it never made that much power; I think the DeLorean PRV was 2.8 liters and only produced 130 hp. To put that in perspective, these days a 2.0T four cylinder can produce close to 300 hp with 200,000 mile longevity....

      The V6 installed in the venturi models, (200, 210, 260, 300 BHP) had absolutely nothing to do with the original engine, the French PRV, which had also equipped the De Lorean, in a much less powerful version of only 135 BHP. Everything, or almost, had been modified, or changed by the Venturi factory. Pistons, camshaft, connecting rods, new injection system, etc... So much so that Venturi had it homologated as their own engine. Much more powerful versions of 500 or 600 BHP had even been developed for the racing Venturi's, during the 24 hours of Le Mans, for example.

      The V6 installed in the venturi models, (200, 210, 260, 300 BHP) had absolutely nothing to do with the original engine, the French PRV, which had also equipped the De Lorean, in a much less powerful version of only 135 BHP. Everything, or almost, had been modified, or changed by the Venturi factory. Pistons, camshaft, connecting rods, new injection system, etc... So much so that Venturi had it homologated as their own engine. Much more powerful versions of 500 or 600 BHP had even been developed for the racing Venturi's, during the 24 hours of Le Mans, for example.

      I thought they looked like E21 rear lights, just they slipped down to a lower location. I think the front bumper copied the Mitsubishi Starion.

    Script sounds like it was written by an AI or someone trying to hit a minimum word count. No offense. Cool car though.

    They used a V6 when trying to compete with vehicles equipped with V8s and V12s? Did they not care about the competition?

      260 hp is not bad out of a 2.8 liter engine. V6 is also much lighter than V8 or V12.

      Try to inform you a little bit better. The V6 installed in the venturi models, (200, 210, 260, 300 BHP) had absolutely nothing to do with the original engine, the French PRV, which had also equipped the De Lorean, in a much less powerful version of only 135 BHP. Everything, or almost, had been modified, or changed by the Venturi factory. Pistons, camshaft, connecting rods, new injection system, etc... So much so that Venturi had it homologated as their own engine. Much more powerful versions of 500 or 600 BHP had even been developed for the racing Venturi's, during the 24 hours of Le Mans, for example.
      Venturi factory total production during 14 years, 1986/2000, was a little bit less than 700 cars, in the historical factory located near the city of Nantes, on the French Atlantic coast. In 2000, the brand was purchased by the Monegasque billionaire Pastor, and transferred in Monaco, southern France. Today, the company still exists but produce only electric cars, mainly for records.

      They’re French, they don’t need to follow others, they set their own standards, and sir, this is what we give you, and you will politely accept. Decent performance from it though.

      Buick Grand National, the GNX and the Nissan G-TR have V6 engines. With a built/ tuned V6 you will run out of traction in that car before you run out of power

      Venturi's were hand made cars with a high luxury manufacturing process. Nothing to see with mass production cars like Toyota.
