Gordon Murray Special Vehicles is a new spin-off of Gordon Murray Automotive, which builds the engaging, V-12-powered, manual-transmission T.50 supercar, and the new division, focused on even more bespoke supercars, unveiled its first two projects at The Quail during 2025 Monterey Car Week.
GMSV's first limited-production supercar is the Le Mans GTR, a tribute to so-called "longtail" endurance racer cars, most specifically the McLaren F1 GTR.
This special supercar shares the 4.0-liter V-12 engine and six-speed manual transmission with GMA's more "mainstream" offerings, but nearly every other piece of the car is new.
The Le Mans GTR looks aerodynamic, with a large front splitter, deep side skirts, and a large rear diffuser. The GTR also eschews the rear-mounted fan of the T.50, instead creating rear downforce via the huge rear wing.
The Le Mans GTR is offered with an SV Design spec that brings stiffer and lighter suspension, a wider track, and sticky Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires.
Only 24 units are being built, with one to represent each hour of the iconic 24 Hours of Le Mans race, with the first customer production cars scheduled to be completed next year.
The GMSV SM L1, meanwhile, is a bespoke model built for a single customer, featuring a design that is fairly faithful to the McLaren F1 GTR, penned by Gordon Murray himself, that won at Le Mans in 1995.
The S1 LM mimics the design of the classic McLaren F1 GTR but with a more modern twist.
Unlike GMSV's other model, the S1 LM uses a unique version of the V-12 engine, bored out to 4.3 liters and producing over 690 horsepower.
The engine is paired with a six-speed manual transmission hooked up to the rear wheels, in classic Gordon Murray fashion.
Five examples of the GMSV S1 LM are being built for the client who commissioned the bespoke model, with deliveries set for 2026.
