12: Panoz Avezzano

This one came close to looking all Lucra—rear and everything—but the keen gearhead’s eye will twitch at the sight of this supercar-ish thing. They call it the “Avezzano,” named after an Italian city, in line with Panoz car naming tradition, but if they had asked for suggestions from the public, something like “Panoz Abruzzi II” or “Panoz L148” would’ve done because it looks like they stuck the nose of a Panoz Abruzzi to the tailgate of a Lucra L148, then came up with a name to “convince” people it’s the closest thing to owning the Panoz Abruzzi—eiowl! Now you see why this car is yet another very good example of what a sports car shouldn’t have when it comes to the design. Strangely, the Italian sports car is still being produced today.

Noo, why did Panoz LLC cripple the Lucra L148!?

[TurboOnz12]

no this actually looks cool

[MegaMack02]

Cringy ripoff cars, all designed by this one guy, Dan Panoz. Founded Panoz LLC…
Which cripples cars.

Look at what he did to a 1967 Ford Mustang when collaborating with Equus Automotive founder Bassam Abdallah:

It looked like this before:

TMC Costin “Panoz Roadster”:

It looked like this before:

Lucra LC470 “Panoz Esperante” made by the same guy:

If anything appears ugly at first glance, but actually is somewhat ugly, mostly cool, I’d say these are. However, I really despise DC Design’s cars, especially since its founder and president got arrested for scamming, defrauding customers, and ripping off cars.

[TurboOnz12]

you dissing panoz or what?

[MegaMack02]

@TurboOnz12 all these cars look somewhat crippled imo, but it’s infamy doesn’t even match the high infamy of DC Design. I’m just glad Panoz isn’t as horrible as DC Design.

[TurboOnz12]

there’s a reason why they look bad to you

cause they valued function over form

[MegaMack02]

@TurboOnz12 No I did not say they look entirely bad. They do look cool.

[TurboOnz12]

@MegaMack02

all these cars look somewhat crippled imo

[StanceWorks]

For the last time you should probably start using your own opinion instead

Read your title

[Alanzcool]

[MegaMack02]

Bro I thought Lucra L148 was a 2014 American supercar made by California-based automaker Lucra Cars

[bruh_man]

@STREnergy GTPlanet is not a reliable source. That is just as dumb as someone who follows a Satellite into a river. A more reliable source is at https://newatlas.com/americas-next-great-supercar/29921/
