Exclusive First Look - Marsien by Marc Philipp Gemballa

what's up guys so we don't always have any new cars here at curated as you guys know we specialize in vintage supercars but today we want to give you an up close and personal look of something very very special oh [Music] [Applause] ah [Music] so i am standing with a very very i mean you can't like i can't even contain my emotions because i believe this is probably one of the best new cars to come out to date as you guys know i'm not like the biggest new car guy everything here is vintage but this holds a piece of my heart because we are huge huge fans of uva gambala who for years had worked with numerous tuners not only his own company uh but amg and and all roof and all these different tuners and he had designed some of the most incredible cars of our time as you guys know we currently have a a car originally built by him an sec that's currently being finished at rentec and we also have one of the avalanche cars uh that he built in period and i absolutely love these cars and this car in many ways is an ode to uh mark philip gambala's father um mark phillip gambala the son of ufe gambala designed this car basically put has put this car together this project it's called martian uh project sandbox and he's done such a great job and the cool part about this car that i really sort of see as uh honoring his father and his father's legacy is one the color so pearl white um a lot of the period 80s and 90s cars that were produced by his father were in pearl white so again so cool um and it's got a roof engine uh so roof power plant uh basically upgrades from roof on the porsche 992 turbo s so again same thing uh as the original avalanche cars uh that had basically the roof btr engine um our actually our car actually has a roof btr engine which is pretty cool and basically the overall car was inspired by and we've talked about this before the porsche 959 rally to car cars which were incredibly successful out of the box and this car just does everything so well um it's something if you think about it it looks insane uh it's very iconic of iconic porsche styling design of the 959 yet it does everything right i mean you could go off-road i mean he's mark has released some incredible videos driving on the sand driving in the desert and the details of this car are so damn cool the carbon work and and you can actually see the weave through the paint all the carbon work on the entire car the lines are almost just perfect i mean the way they're cut into the body and they come around here and the fit and finish and imagine this is actually the prototype um so this is not the final uh production version i believe uh he will be producing 40 examples i think all 40 are sold out this car is here in miami uh obviously because we're friends i consider i've known mark for a few years now but also one of our clients i believe has purchased one or put a deposit on one and if you just look at the fit and finish and the way he's done everything the logo the design the colors it is just so damn cool from the wheels uh the logo on the wheels the brakes i really have to say um i'm so proud of him to see a young guy that's put this project together worked with incredible designers other engineers and then you come to the front and it's just has so much presence it's so wide you have this intake that comes down here everything's functional and that's the cool part so suspension is kw suspension obviously a leader um in those parts and and even the the wishbones are different they're actually designed by the same group that did all the 918 911 rsr so a lot of really great people have put this project together and if you look historically at great cars and great car makers such as lamborghini bugatti they have always done a great job of putting great designers engineers uh and manufacturers together to create a final product and i think that's what mark has done perfectly here the carbon fiber work on the front is awesome um you know in all of the little details on this car i could definitely see myself driving this as a daily um i think this is exotic it's it's exciting it has so much presence but it feels very practical at the same time in the sense that you know you don't have to worry because it's too low or anything like that because the car does raise and it can go off-road if we had any uh flash floods here in miami i think you'd be be okay with this um but essentially it's a little bit out of my price range for a daily driver as you guys know i currently daily a clk 55 um that i probably have about 17 000 into now so this is 480 000 euros uh as the base price on top of the donor car uh so figure a donor car could be what i don't know 160 to 200 000 so a little bit out of my price range but definitely definitely so cool um i would love to have this and i'm not a new car guy this is something that i really really need to save up for save my pennies i unfortunately would probably have to buy one pre-owned um because i believe they're all sold out but congratulations to mark it's an honor to give you guys an up-close tour i think we're one of the first youtube channels to do this so it's an honor to have it here in miami an honor to give you guys a tour stay tuned for more vintage supercar content thank you guys again don't forget to subscribe and like and love love this car [Music]
