When the first production car was shown in Geneva in 1970, it was almost visually identical to the show car. It had made the journey, through to production, without being watered down by comity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"BodyA\">There had been changes, but for the good. Lurking under the hood with the non-functional NACA duct was now a 2593-cc, 90-degree, dry-sump V8 with SPICA fuel injection. The engine put out close to 200 horsepower and revved to a then unheard of 7000 rpms; it was mated to a ZF 5-speed gearbox and a limited slip differential. This was a special motor, it was based on the unit that powered the Tipo 33 sports prototype racecar and its roadgoing Stradale sister. Suspension was borrowed from the Giulia GTV. Double wishbones with coil springs and dampers handled the work at the front, while a live axle took up the rear.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_654609\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-654609\" style=\"width: 1080px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Montreal494.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-654609 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Montreal494.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1080\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Montreal494.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Montreal494-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Montreal494-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Montreal494-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Montreal494-770x513.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Montreal494-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Montreal494-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Montreal494-293x195.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-654609\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tipo 33 derived 2593-cc, 90-degree, V8 engine.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"BodyA\">All this was wrapped in a body designed by the man credited with other beauties such as the Lamborghini Miura, Countach, Bugatti EB110 and the Alfa 33 Carabo.<\/p>\n<p class=\"BodyA\">You had to write a big check to become the owner of a new Montreal.

The gauges are some of the most unique units you\u2019ll ever lay eyes on. Both the tach and speedometer are nestled in their own hooded circular surrounds that hold all the other necessary information. The steering wheel has that ubiquitous Italian rake, but all you need to do is grab hold at 5 and 7 and it does your bidding perfectly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"BodyA\">Even without being supercharged, the exhaust note reminds you of the bark of the pre-war 8C Grand Prix cars. And it\u2019s not just sound, it\u2019s motion; the motor does just what a V8 is supposed to do\u2014move you along at a proper pace. It swallows up miles on the open road and it does not disappoint when it comes to twisting mountain roads. It is a well-balanced car that entices you back for more, whatever road you put it on.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Montreal456-copy.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-654613 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Montreal456-copy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1080\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Montreal456-copy.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Montreal456-copy-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Montreal456-copy-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Montreal456-copy-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Montreal456-copy-770x513.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Montreal456-copy-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Montreal456-copy-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Montreal456-copy-293x195.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"BodyA\">It\u2019s hard to put a title to what kind of car the Montreal is.
