2010 Morgan Aero 8 SuperSport

Highlights:

• Rare Targa-top variant of the sleek Morgan Aero 8; one of very few in the United States
• Presented in exceptional condition and driven only 4,500 miles
• Hand-crafted in England, with dramatic styling blending past and present
• 362 hp, 361 lb-ft 4.8-liter BMW V-8 engine; six-speed automatic transmission
• Striking colors; Eiger Sport Grey over a two-tone gray leather interior with factory gloss black wheels
• Weighs just 2,524 lbs thanks to its hand-made aluminum skin and chassis

Yet even the Aero SuperSports' 1930s-style skin is anything but traditional. Crafted in aluminum, using a cutting-edge "Superform" process, the body incorporates twin removable roof panels that can be stowed in the boot. Beneath is a bonded and riveted aluminum chassis which is both light and stiff, to the benefit of both ride and handling. All told, the Morgan weighs just 2,524 pounds!

This 2010 Morgan Aero SuperSports, regally and uniquely finished in Eiger Sport Gray, features a beautifully appointed interior trimmed in two-tone gray leather and complemented by brushed carbon-looking panels. Factory gloss black wheels add the finishing touch to the car's distinctive exterior appearance. Sparingly driven and, according to the consignor, always carefully garage-kept, this spectacular Morgan presents in virtually as-new condition both inside and out.

Step in and twist the key, and you will be left with no doubt about the car's potential: The 4.8-liter V-8 burbles menacingly through the side-exit exhaust pipes that end just a few inches behind your ears. Mildly modified by Morgan and here mated to a six-speed automatic transmission, this BMW-sourced engine delivers 362 brake horsepower and 361 pound-feet of torque, providing the SuperSport with near-supercar standards of performance. It can accelerate from zero to 60 mph in just 4.5 seconds and tops out at 170 mph.

And it does so in unrivaled style. After a 2011 test, Car amp; Driver compared the SuperSports to the boattailed Morgan AeroMax, noting that "the SuperSports is a pure eye magnet. You could park it next to anything this side of a gold-plated Veyron and be confident it would win the majority of attention."

Showing just under 4,550 actual miles at the time of listing, this Aero SuperSports offers ample justification for that claim. With a stated production run of only 200, very few of these hand-crafted cars have been registered in the United Statesmaking this exclusive sports car exceedingly uncommon on these shores. This example presents a rare opportunity to acquire one of these very special cars in excellent, scarcely used condition.
