1997 Sbarro Be Twin

At the 1997 Geneva Motor Show was a pair of sportscars called the Formula Rhin and Be Twin. They were conceived to teach rich kids how to drive and were fitted with two sets of controls. The 1320 lb (600 kg) Formula Rhin had a ferocious 200 bhp Peugeot 3.0 liter V-six engine behind the seats, while the B Twin, at under 990 lb (450 kg), had a Lotus Élan style backbone chassis, stressed mid-mounted engine (a 140 bhp 1.6 liter unit from the Citroen Saxo Cup racer), self-ventilating disc brakes and double-wishbone front suspension.
