Only five Tatra MTX V8s were ever built:
black: Czech museum
red: Czech collector
white: Germany
4: USA
5: Italy (with extended wheelbase and Porsche engine)
But where is the cooling radiators? The secret is simple - the radiators is not exist! Yes, yes, the engine is air-cooled!>>>excellent aerodynamics.

I used Google to find out additional info on this car, and found another... - Tatra Grafit 1983 Concept
Even more unbelievable! Looks like a Countach! It is claimed that its V8 produced 400 PS and was capable to reach 200 mph!! And that's made by communists! Ahh, shame, in communist world this project would never have a future...
