Celebrating the 100th anniversary of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, and the AC Cobra’s class win in 1963, as an official partner of Le Mans Classic 2023 AC Cars gave the sensational new AC Cobra GT Roadster its first public appearance.
With original Cobras competing for honours on the track over the weekend, AC Cars wowed the crowd in the Le Mans Classic Village with a pole-position display of the cutting-edge new sports car running day and night.
To mark the occasion AC Cars displayed Edition 63, an exclusive model available only to the first clients ordering a GT Roadster.
Limited to just 63 examples, which are now allocated, Edition 63 retains a unique bodywork and trim configuration along with an exhaustive specification to mark the AC Cobra’s class win at The 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1963.
With the AC Cars stand also featuring a pristine example of one of the company’s previous cars, the display of the AC Cobra GT Roadster Edition 63 allowed the manufacturer team to discuss the new car with customers and fans alike, and allow buyers the chance to experience the unique design and construction first-hand.
Speaking at the Le Mans Classic 2023, David Conza, Chief Executive Officer of AC Cars, said: “To be here with our new model, and share in the celebrations at the Le Mans Classic has been amazing. The original AC Cobra is a car of legend, and it has been a delight to show its rightful heir to such amazing reception. Once again, the feedback from everyone seeing the car has been overwhelmingly positive and, with the first run of cars now allocated, we will be moving forward with our expansion throughout 2023 as we gear up for the first deliveries next year.”
