![]() The MT900S can do 0 to 60 mph (97 km/h) in 3.1 seconds and reach a top speed at around the 200 mph (322 km/h) mark in Xbox 360 titles, which was increased to 211 mph (340 km/h) in Forza Horizon 4. It derives its name from Warren Mosler, Rod Trenne, and its target weight of 900 kilogram (1,984 lbs). It uses a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive layout and a six-speed manual gearbox. The Mosler MT900S is powered by a Chevrolet Corvette Z06-derived 7,011 cc (7 liter) LS7 V8 with a supercharger, increasing power to 600 hp (447 kW) and torque to 515 ft ![]() The MT900S is truly a result of Warren Mosler’s singular vision about how a car should be constructed: differently, but for optimal performance." ![]() This latest MT900S has also benefitted from the numerous lessons learned from its competition-only cousin, the MT900R, class winner at the Daytona 24-hour endurance race. ![]() It was also designed differently, created by Rod Trenne entirely with computer-drafting software using no clay models or concept art to guide the process. Mosler pairs the resulting chassis with a 530 horsepower V8 pulled straight out of the latest Corvette Z06, which is plenty to motivate the bantam-weight MT900S. For example, power steering was deemed too heavy by the design team, so it’s not available. The MT900S isn’t ugly and only has one engine, but what’s different about it is the utilization of a host of high-tech materials optimized for the lightest possible curb weight. They created a Cadillac Eldorado with two engines called the TwinStar, and also constructed the amazing Consulier GTP, which was tremendously ugly but won so often in IMSA Supercar races that it was banned by the series organizers. Coincidence? Mosler Automotive has always done things a little bit differently. " Here are two things you should know about the Mosler MT900S: it looks like a road-going spacecraft, and the first one ever built was snapped up by filmmaker George Lucas. ![]()
