A unique N2A Anteros, blending C6 Corvette mechanicals with retro Italian styling, sold at auction. Featuring a carbon fiber body, LS2 V8, and manual transmission, the car's unusual design and Corvette underpinnings make it a distinctive vehicle.
One-off N2A Anteros blends C6 Corvette performance with retro Italian-inspired styling. LS2 V8 , manual gearbox, and carbon-fiber bodywork make it equal parts kit car and supercar. Odometer rollback note and Corvette VIN add intrigue to this no-reserve auction.
Some cars are rare because they’re expensive. Others are rare because nobody asked for them in the first place. And then there’s the N2A Anteros. It's a machine that looks every bit like a forgotten Italian exotic, yet underneath sits a C6 Corvette dressed up in an unusually elaborate disguise. This reportedly one-off targa coupe just changed hands for $66,500, right in the ballpark of a brand-new C8 Stingray that starts from $70,000, and it may be one of the more unusual ways to experience LS2 V8 performance wrapped in carbon fiber.

Underneath, it’s still very much a C6, but the exterior has been completely reworked with custom carbon-fiber body panels finished in Dark Ming Blue Metallic. The styling is very clearly influenced by European design. It features single round taillights, a long clamshell hood, a wire mesh grille, and sculpted fenders. N2A named the car after Anteros, the Greek god associated with requited love, which feels appropriate for something built purely out of passion rather than logic. Maybe one of the most innovative pieces of the design is something N2A left alone: the targa top. It's still removable so the next owner will get to enjoy topless driving whenever they so choose. Mechanically, the car sticks close to its Corvette roots. Power comes from the 6.0-liter LS2 V8 rated at 400 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque, paired with a six-speed manual and a limited-slip differential driving the rear wheels. The build also includes Wilwood brakes with slotted and drilled rotors, staggered billet wheels, and Kumho performance tires. The N2A Anteros isn't without its potential pitfalls, though. The Carfax still identifies the car as a 2005 Corvette, and the report notes a potential odometer rollback years ago. The digital odometer shows about 15,000 miles, but the true total is unknown. It’s not perfect, it’s not factory-correct, and it definitely isn’t subtle. That said, for $66,500, its new owner has a very unique toy with a fairly reliable powertrain to go with it. Photos BaT
