Sterling RX sports car.
Power-to-weight ratio is the true measure of actual performance of any sports car. Large V8s need heavier transaxles, larger cooling systems and oversized braking systems. This extra weight and higher center of gravity causes numerous handling obstacles you can never overcome. Modern high tech V6, 4 cylinder, and boxer engines available today can put out 300HP to 700HP at the wheels with torque ratings over 400. The Sterling RX naturally out performs with its great combination of weight to power ratio when using the Subaru 2.5 EJ25 boxer engine. The low center of gravity and its light weight (chassis system) make acceleration and cornering exhilarating. Track car and street car become one. The Sterling RX with its redefined body and new performance chassis is the perfect match of style and performance. 

Our (Chassis systems) are developed by computer aided design. We test and develop numerous design options and configurations before any tubing is cut. All of our chassis and part assemblies are made in complex fixtures to assure quality. This is how we are able to develop unlimited chassis variations based on an original tested concept.

( NEW parts, no need for a donor car )

The new Sterling RX still has the classic shape but with modern style and engineering. Thick composite body with a double wall structure built into the body during molding.  Carbon fiber reenforced at stress points.  Some areas are 3/8" think at bolt points.  The new targa top has a removable hard top. There are now 25 new customizable features to make your Sterling super car your own.
