Serenissima Agena
Chassis
The Serenissima Agena one-off by Fantuzzi.
Vehicle Overview
The Serenissima Agena, conceived as a premier Grand Tourer, represented a pioneering leap in automotive design with its avant-garde mid-engined layout. During its era, this configuration was a rarity, with only a handful of manufacturers daring to adopt it. The Lamborghini Miura, unveiled at the 1966 Geneva Motor Show, blazed the trail for mid-engined marvels, setting a new standard for performance and aesthetics. Following closely behind was the De Tomaso Mangusta, albeit with an American engine, lacking the same level of innovation. Crafted around a box structure fortified by tubular front and rear subframes, the Serenissima Agena boasted the formidable Massimino Tipo 358 V engine at its heart. This powerplant, a 3.5-liter twin overhead cam V8 with twin-spark ignition and four Weber DCN14 carburetors, mirrored the potent engine found in the Le Mans spyder, promising exhilarating performance on both road and track. Embodying the epitome of Italian craftsmanship, the Agena donned a sleek two-seater coupé body meticulously fashioned from lightweight aluminum by the skilled artisans at Fantuzzi. Every curve and contour of the Agena’s exterior spoke of elegance and aerodynamic efficiency, culminating in a timeless silhouette that turned heads wherever it roamed. Beyond its striking aesthetics, the Serenissima Agena epitomized the spirit of automotive innovation, pushing the boundaries of performance and engineering excellence. Its fusion of cutting-edge technology and artisanal craftsmanship represented a pinnacle achievement in automotive design, setting a new standard for Grand Tourers of its time. Though its production may have been limited, the legacy of the Serenissima Agena endures as a testament to the ingenuity and passion of its creators. Even today, enthusiasts marvel at its timeless design and formidable performance, cementing its status as an icon in the annals of automotive history.
