2010 Devon GTX



After speculation, spy shots and renderings, the 2010 Devon GTX finally made it's debut on the 18th hole of Pebble Beach, with the hope of ushering in a new era of American supercar dominance.

The California-based design studio and upstart automaker created the GTX as an American answer to the ultra-exclusive sports cars hailing from Europe. Housed within the steel structure and carbon fiber body lies an 8.4-liter V10 putting 650 hp (at 6,100 rpm) to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual gearbox.

When the GTX goes on sale early next year, the coupe will be available in two flavors – a standard version and a more track-focused variant – each equipped with a fully independent suspension (a real-time damping and ride-height adjustment system will be available in late 2010), obscured by 18x10-inch (front) and 19x13-inch (rear) wheels (19s and 20s are an available upgrade), wrapped in Z-rated Michelin Pilot Sport 2 rubber. Six piston brakes clamp onto 380mm discs in front, while four piston calipers grapple with 355mm rotors in the rear.

Devon plans to produce 36 cars each year, carrying a price tag of $500,000, with a racing package commanding another $25,000. Get all the details in the press release below the fold, and check out both galleries of the GTX below.

That might've been too many pics for this car. Not pretty, but I'd drive the shit out of it.
