At Monterey Car Week in California, Eccentrica, the San Marino-based restomod specialist, will reveal three new vehicles, with the highlight being the V12 Pacchetto Titano. This limited-edition restomod is a track-focused reinterpretation of the classic Lamborghini Diablo, boasting extensive modern enhancements aimed at heightened performance and driver engagement[1][2][4].
Key Features and Specifications
- Engine and Drivetrain:
- The V12 Pacchetto Titano is powered by a tuned version of Lamborghini's 5.7-litre V12 engine, expected to generate around 550 hp and 443 b ft of torque[3].
- The engine is paired with Eccentrica's own six-speed manual gearbox, designed to preserve the analogue driving experience[1][3].
- Chassis and Suspension:
- The Pacchetto Titano features track-inspired upgrades, including stiffer springs, recalibrated adaptive dampers, and suspension modifications that enhance dynamic performance without compromising road comfort[1][3][4].
- Braking and Wheels:
- The car is equipped with upgraded Brembo braking system with new cooling ducts for improved efficiency and strong braking on track[1][3][4].
- Forged carbon-aluminum alloy wheels, sized 19 inches front and 20 inches rear, reduce unsprung mass for better handling[2][4].
- Aerodynamics and Bodywork:
- The Pacchetto Titano boasts a new fixed carbon fiber rear wing that increases downforce for improved grip on the track[1][2][3][4].
- The bodywork is made of exposed carbon fiber, with aero tweaks enhancing performance and visual impact[1][2][3].
- Interior and Design:
- The interior features a blend of modern and retro elements, with Alcantara trim for the seats, carbon fibre detailing, billet aluminum accents, and retro-inspired digital gauges[1][2].
- A racing-style three-spoke steering wheel, wrapped in grippy fabric, has a light blue marker indicating the 12 o'clock position[2].
- Safety enhancements include an integrated fire suppression system for track safety[2].
- Production and Exclusivity:
- Only 19 cars will ever be produced, each requiring an original Diablo as a donor vehicle, emphasizing rarity and bespoke craftsmanship[1][2][4].
- Special editions like the Rose Phoenix and Green Dragon offer further customization options within the Pacchetto Titano package[2][4].
At the event, Eccentrica will demonstrate the potential for customization with two other cars on display: one in a bespoke triple-layer Rose Gold livery, and the other with a Verde Chartreuse pastel exterior. Customers will be able to tailor their V12 Pacchetto Titano to their exact specification.
Eccentrica's objective for the V12 Pacchetto Titano was to create a package that amplifies the driving experience without overshadowing the core essence of the car[1]. The V12 Pacchetto Titano's interior design maintains the spirit of the original while sharpening its purpose and performance[5]. The Pacchetto Titano is a lighter, more hardcore version of Eccentrica's V12-engined Diablo restomod, offering an intense driving experience that is both modern and nostalgic.
