Default T.50 PtS available?

Canepa won't take my call today, I'm trying to order a GMA T.50 and want to know if I can get it painted Papaya Orange?
Does anyone know if the PtS window is open?

PS the new gold standard supercar and basically a Mclaren F1.2

I believe the PTS window is open now (according to my good friend "LH" who is a multiple time F1 world champion)

however the air vents are back ordered so you will not be able to match those in papaya orange right now.

Sorry, to keep things exclusive, Murray is only offering one example of each of a select few PTS colors, and I already nabbed Papaya Orange. As of today, Purple Nurple is still available, though.

anyone that can get ownership on a T.50 and doesn't do it, well, future regrets, pain and suffering, but all self inflicted.

The no-brainer all-in hypercar, with a name tag to match.

This may be a dumb question, but what about aftermarket support and service?

A serious question in a less-than-serious thread - was it maybe this project @CAlexio searched investors for, a while back?

Honestly I'm not that sure about the price tag at GBP2.4mm base. This thing is priced for maximum economics to the manufacturer.

It'll no doubt be technically brilliant and probably a great drive. But the looks are uninspiring at best and a tarted-up Lotus Evora at worst.

Net-net my mental RPM is probably too low to comprehend the proposition here, I'm a neutral with a negative bias given what the equiv. of $3mm can buy in the market the next 1-2 years.

Canepa in CA is the only place that’s announced so far for service.

The headlights are a let down, for sure. Looked at in the light of a F1 redux it's spot-on with Murray having access technology that's 30 years on. Did you hear the bit about the wheels are aluminum and not magnesium nor carbon.
As for the value prop., it's 1/10 the cost of an F1, made by the same guy. Which begs the question why wasn't this done with Mclaren?
Also why only 100 copies, back of the envelope math says 500 over 5 years would be doable. Boy I hope we see some of these actually being driven.

Yes Canepa, that's it. Free first oil change I believe.

The front-end is disappointing.
