GMSV launches two limited-run cars at Monterey

GMSV shows two limited models at Monterey Car Week, led by the S1 LM homage to the F1 LM and a Le Mans GTR.

GMSV unveils five-car homage to F1 LM at Monterey

At Monterey Car Week, Gordon Murray Automotive unveiled the first two models from Gordon Murray Special Vehicles, a division focused on one-off commissions, limited editions and heritage-inspired projects. The S1 LM is a five-unit homage to the F1 LM, designed to emphasize exclusivity, beauty, and driving perfection. It features a 4.3-litre V12 delivering more than 700 hp, a package made possible by removing the rear fan and oil cooling, and lighter internals that let the engine rev to high speeds. The case uses a manual gearbox with an optimized linkage inspired by the T.50 and a bespoke suspension paired with a carbon aero package to deliver a sharp, road-legal driving experience.

The two-model debut signals a strategic push toward high-end, driver-focused engineering rather than broad-volume sales. GMSV leans into the language of rarity, craftsmanship and performance, promising a new chapter for the brand. The emphasis on manual gear shifts, lightweight construction and bespoke chassis work caters to enthusiasts who value tactile feedback over raw numbers.
