As a result, the first is a beautiful car called the Panther ProgettoUno whose design is inspired by the De Tomaso Pantera of the 1970s and has been exhibited at the 2019 Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este. Then the second one was born of the Ares Design's Legends Reborn series, ie Wami Lalique Spyder, an elegant classic-style roadster.

The classic-style roadster is the result of a collaboration between Ares Design and Lalique, a French luxury crystal manufacturer and can be seen since 2018. In general, the appearance of this car is inspired by the design of the roadster that was popular in the 1950s, namely the Maserati A6G/2000 Spyder by Frua.

But what can be seen then there are a lot of designs at play here, starting from the long hood that successfully presents the essence of classics, such as the Jaguar E-Type and C1 Corvette. Meanwhile, the wire wheels and fender vents remind us of the Ferrari 250 GT California Spyder.

So far Ares Design has been reluctant to mention what Wami was built based on (if the Panther ProgettoUno was built based of the Lamborghini Huracan), while the body appears to be made of aluminum and carbon fiber, and there is a chromed muffler, bumper and wheels.

For the engine, Ares Design also does not want to reveal the engine used in its roadster. From the circulating images, it will most likely use a manual gearbox and long hood indicating suitable for large-sized engine. 

Then there was some speculation circulating on the internet, starting with the use of the V8 engine which was mentioned as fair enough choice. However, we'll also find it hard to say no to the inline-six high performance or the powerful V12.

Meanwhile for the interior will be decorated with a distinctive two-tone touch with beautiful crystal sprinkles supplied by Lalique, ranging from the center console to the doors. The interior appearence looks more elegant with genuine leather layered, wood accents, and a black and white measuring system complementing the vintage-themed interior. However, Wami still gives off a modern scent with a large touch screen emerging from the dashboard.

"Over time, we started to really appreciate how beautiful and unique the car we co-created with our partner, Lalique," said Dany Bahar, co-founder of Ares Design. "This model is unlike anything we've produced before. The Wami Lalique Spyder would be a pleasure to have." He continued.

Ares Design plans to build only 12 units of Wami Lalique Spyder, but the availability and price are not yet known until today, which obviously won't be cheap. Happy New Year 2021, hopes the prosperity and succses may always upon You next year. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | TOPGEAR ]
