Quote:
The MTX Tatra V8 was a super-sports car made by MTX in cooperation with Tatra in 1991. It was designed by Czech automobile designer Václav Král and was the fastest Czech car in that time. It has a Tatra 3.9 litre V8 with a rated power of 225 kW (306 PS; 302 hp) at 6500/min, it has scissor doors opening vertically and pop-up headlamps. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h is given as 5.6 seconds and the maximum speed is 265 km/h (165mph).[1]

After it passed driving tests at the Tatra polygon races at Kopřivnice, at the airport in Mošnov and at the autodrom in Most, it was finally introduced to the public in October 1991 at the auto show in Prague. After that, the MTX had almost 200 orders for this car, so the company started production of a limited series of 100 pieces. When the project was sold to a new owner during the early stages of production, the factory suffered a fire that forever terminated volume manufacturing of this car.[2]
