More of the Spada Codatronca before Monaco debut

The Spada Codatronca is one of those cars you just have to see from all the angles. Unfortunately, Autoblog doesn't need the kind of tax shelter Monaco provides to its wealthy residents, so we won't be on hand when the production version of the car is unveiled there next month at the Top Marques show, which the angular coachbuilt supercar will be headlining. Its creators – father-son team Ercole and Paolo Spada – have, however, been kind enough to bestow upon us a pair of new high-resolution images, which we've added to the gallery below (and the full press release after the jump) for your viewing pleasure, in the hope that we get another eyeful soon after the car's unveiling.

The sheer outrageousness of the Spada Codatroca's design is rivaled only by the notion that it is actually being built, but in both cases seeing is believing. The wildly shark-styled Vette-based sportscar is scheduled to be officially unveiled in limited-production guise at the upcoming Top Marques show in Monaco (where else?) on April 24.

You may recall that the Codatronca packs a supercharged LS7 V8 into its expressly unique bodywork and promises a sprint to sixty in 3.2 seconds. That's in the base 600-hp TS version, which will be shown in Monte Carlo prior to the more extreme track-oriented 700-hp TSV model said to hit sixty in a scant 2.7. To produce the Codatronca for an assuredly wealthy few customers, SpadaConcept – led by former Zagato designer Ercole Spada and his son Paulo – set up SpadaVettureSport in collaboration with fellow Italian coachbuilder Aznom and a slew of other partners including Pirelli, OZ Racing, Sparco, prototype firm FS Rivoli and racing outfit Italtecnica.
