Panoz…who’s that? Panoz is a Georgia-based automotive outfit that makes small-volume sports cars. Founded by Dan Panoz in 1989, the company is still around! One of their more popular offerings is the Esperante, which was made across two generations. The first ran between 2000 and 2007, with a second being offered between 2014 and 2015. As you’d expect, these are low-volume cars and you don’t see many of them around. Today, we have a first-generation 2002 Panoz Esperante for sale from Matthews, North Carolina. It’s got 23,000 miles, a 4.6-liter Ford Cobra V8 and a 5-speed manual gearbox. Plus, this rear-wheel drive machine is reportedly on sale by the original owner, and includes all original documents and brochures. It’s undergone a complete inspection at the Panoz factory in November 2025 too.
This 2002 Panoz Esperante features a Sapphire Blue paint job which is reportedly protected by a recent ceramic coating. The car’s styling is certainly interesting and distinctive, and you can definitely see inspiration from many large automakers, such as BMW and Ferrari in the design language. The bodywork is underpinned by an aluminum chassis and the whole thing rides on a set of shiny silver alloy wheels. Yes, this is certainly a head-turner because of its rarity, and people will be scratching their heads to identify it. Helpfully, Panoz has placed badging and script on the rear of the car, along with the twin tailpipes that lets the Cobra V8 do its barking. A car cover is also included in the sale of this machine. The interior of this 2002 Panoz Esperante comes in tan and can accommodate two adults. It’s well-equipped, with air conditioning and an aftermarket sound system. You can also see some BMW Z8 design inspiration here, particularly with the centrally-mounted gauge pod. There’s also some wood trim, chrome-plated door handles and power windows. Plus, there’s a black convertible top that can be lowered for open-air drives when desired.
This 2002 Panoz Esperante uses a 4.6-liter Ford Cobra V8. It’s reportedly rated at 305hp and 320lb-ft as per official literature. The engine drives the rear axle through a 5-speed manual transmission. Thanks to its light weight, 0-60 can be done in around 5 seconds.

Today’s 2014 Porsche 911 Turbo S from Utah is a fine example of one of the most definitive sports cars of all time. With its twin-turbocharged, rear-mounted flat six, this black beauty is a real wolf in sheep’s clothing. That’s because it has a reported whopping 552hp and 516lb-ft of torque being thrust to all four wheels, resulting in a zero to sixty time of less than three seconds if the conditions are right. All that could be yours today, with this reportedly 13,000-mile car, and it comes with all service records included, too. Just contact us and let’s seal the deal.
The Porsche 911 is one of the most desirable cars with petrolheads. It’s forged a reputation of being a fine driver’s car, but one that cannot be easily hustled. No, to get the best out of a Porsche 911, you’ve got to respect it, learn to work with it rather than boss it around, and most importantly, recognize when it’s giving everything that it’s got. If that sounds like your sort of game, this 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet is available in Berkeley, California. Coming from the 991 era of 2011 to 2019, this is a first phase car with a punchy 3.8-liter flat six, a lovely blue coat of paint, a well-equipped beige interior, and all-wheel drive, signified by the 4 in the car’s name. Having traveled just over 71,000 miles, it’s ready for a new owner. Two keys are included with the sale of this vehicle.
This 2024 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible 3LT is not your average eighth-generation or C8 Corvette. No, beneath its Riptide Blue Metallic body, its 6.2-liter V8 has been fitted with aftermarket twin turbochargers, enabling it to make massive power. With its Vossen HF-3 wheels, aftermarket body kit, and host of features, this is a C8 that really redefines what a Corvette can be. It’s a fearsome car for those who want a driving machine that will not only thrill them but also challenge them to up their game. And it could be yours, available in Cypress, Texas, with under 10,000 miles on the clock.
