The Gordon Murray T.33 Spider lets you hear that 11,100-RPM V-12 even better.
You can thank America for the Gordon Murray Automotive T.33 Spider. Unlike the center-steered T.50, GMA decided to fully homologate the T.33 for the U.S. market, at a cost of $35 million and counting."As we promised never to do more than 100 of any model or variant, we would have to make more than one variant to make 33 viable," Murray tells Road & Track,"or charge £5 million a car, which is not viable anyway."So, GMA decided to make three variants of T.
Dynamically, GMA wanted the T.33 Spider to perform as well as the coupe, so the company settled on a car with two removable carbon-fiber roof panels that could be stowed in the front trunk,a Porsche Carrera GT or 918 Spyder. Practicality should be better than those cars, as the T.33 Spider also has two pannier-type lockable luggage compartments on either side of the engine.The chassis of the T.33 coupe and Spider were conceived at the same time so that each would be as strong as the other.
The T.33 Spider also makes the same amount of downforce as the coupe, most of which is generated underneath by diffusers behind each front wheel, and a large, stepped diffuser at the back. A deployable rear spoiler helps balance everything out, and Murray says the aerodynamic performance is basically the same roof on and roof off. The rear roll hoop supplies extra rigidity and, of course, safety. Above it is the RAM-air intake for the 4.
Suspension is by aluminum double-wishbones all around with coil-over passive dampers, and rear suspension attached directly to the transaxle, as in a race car. The T.33 also uses GMA’s novel electro-hydraulic power steering system with an electric pump that provides assistance at low speeds and disengages once moving. This delivers best of both worlds in terms of maneuverability and uncorrupted steering feel.
