Autozam AZ-1 as a mini Ferrari F40

Liberty Walk is a Japanese car shop that makes body kits for Ferrari, Lamborghini and GTR. Their latest work is a car created as a combination of Ferrari F40 and mid-engine kei-class sports car Autozam AZ-1.

The AZ-1 was one of the most exciting cars from the Japanese kei class. Even in factory form it looks like a mini supercar, and the gullwing doors add to the sporty look. It is powered by a 657 cc three-cylinder engine with 63 hp (47 kW) mated to a five-speed manual transmission that sends power to the rear wheels.

The tuner changed the front of the AZ-1 with a new grille and hood to resemble the F40. Wings in the corners, an extended splitter, extended fenders connected to massive sills were also added. Dual round headlights are not part of the package.

New door panels with the shape of the NACA opening were installed, creating a look closer to the legendary Ferrari. A new fixed rear wing, diffuser and redesigned bumper with reflectors have been installed, but there are no taillights.

Although Liberty Walk doesn’t mention the exhaust system, the photo shows three centrally placed tailpipes, just like those on the F40.

When it comes to the price, the body kit costs $22,600, and that includes all of the above as well as sports seats. 16″ and 17″ six-spoke wheels wrapped in Toyo tires that cost an additional $14,300.
