Kimera EVO37 Review // Something Special
Vložit
- čas přidán 8. 06. 2024
- The 2024 Kimera EVO37 (€680,000 EUR starting, $726,998 USD converted, $974,250 CAD converted) is a restomod based on the legendary rally icon, the Lancia 037. Built by Kimera Automobili in Italy, every Kimera EVO37 is custom designed for their owners. It is constructed from an original donor car from ages past, but brought into the new era with modern tech and engineering. A unique turbocharged AND supercharged four cylinder engine sits just behind the driver, creating over 500 horsepower through a manual transmission. It also has double-wishbone suspension on all four corners and an absolutely striking road presence.
In other words, the Kimera EVO37 looks to blend the raw driving experience of ages past with just enough comforts and engineering from the modern world. But does it live up to the task? Thomas and James are excited to find out! We hope you enjoy the episode! Subscribe!

#Restomod #Lancia #Rally - Auta a dopravní prostředky
One of the few crazy expensive cars that you can't really even argue the price of. There's just so much that goes into each car!
When it comes to this kind of machine, it's not even worth discussing the price. Limited units, probably all sold out and it's not exactly a mainstream consumer vehicle
100%
Very valid point!
I'd love to make a counter point but you are all super correct!!!
Was thinking in my head "there are far more worse ways to spend a million dollars, this would be worth every cent".
The 037 was famous for not just winning Group B with the Lancia Team, but it was also the first and last RWD drive car to beat an AWD car in rally as well, since Lancia was up against Audi and the Quatro.
And there were quite the shenanigans to pull that off, these things will never happen ever again 😂😂😂
@@JohnWikuah yes... the infamous salt road pitstop
Lancia didn’t bother to race the snow races where they were at a disadvantage
@@JohnWikui remember alot that this Rally Kimura 037 bears the exact same like Lancia Rosso 037 on GT2 PROJECT A SPEC MOD.
@@nikhilgulati3897yes. Lancia never surrender.
It's rare for me to say "wow" when I see a new car for the first time. This is one of those cars. Easily one of the most striking, beautiful cars I've seen.
The literal original car exists.
This is such a poser thing to say its crazy.
You're right. It's ugly then. Better?@@samueljones3668
Ehm, it's not new
@@samueljones3668 cut the guy some slack he probably only knows about his daily truck/suv and the names of supercars
@@samueljones3668 Tf do you mean by that? Liking a restomod is being a poser I guess? You all are so weird. Just let people enjoy the stuff they like. You are probably one of those old a$$holes who loves to gatekeep old stuff.
The Lancia 037 has one of the MOST BEAUTIFUL automobile silhouette. Period.
This is what all modern sports car designers should strive towards. Absolutely beautiful.
Is this a contemporary car? If yes, its producer has courage to make it.
A bit like Hyundai with their N Vision 74
Are you watching BMW?
No... it looks so old. All manufacturers should be like Hyundai and make their cars futuristic, or the heavenly Corvette C8 Z06
Modern designers cant make cars that look like this anymore because of safety laws. Simple as that. Even these cars have a donor chassis w the original vin
The Restomod/special-project episodes are always spectacular! Do the Lotus-Radford Type 62-2 next!
Watching this right after Doug's Singer video and I am absolutely floored by the level of automotive excellence that is possible, when big name brands are giving way to soulless gimmicks and this level of precision and raw emotion is available, it's dumbfounding.
Oh god yes, that car is fucking phenomenal.
@@Wrathlon since James is obsessed with the Ford GT it would be sick to do a track battle
Thanks, I didn't know about this car and wow, that looks stunning too. Do the modern retro designs look extra sexy because we are from a different era? The Hyundai N Vision 74 made me similarly happy to look at a car. I miss those shapes :(
@@sabertooth_flJames always obsessed with track day battles bro.
You guys are doing such a great job. The editing, the script, the shots and music... you guys are basically the modern day top gear and I really hope you guys keep growing and become a Canadian success story
This youtube channel HAS to be seen on a 80” 4KTV home theater system. Your dream team of a production team is extremely technically adept. The camera work is just phenomenal. The SOUND capture of your sound guy is an absolute PROFESSIONAL. How is this small team pumping out INSANE quality content like this?! My ears, eyes, and brain are all fully ENTERTAINED!
FRIGGIN BRAVO. What a masterpiece of a video!!!!!!
You guys did this utterly piece of art and prestige machinery of a car absolute justice! THANK YOU TH Team for sharing this car to us; and doing it in such a beautiful way!
I can't wait for our group invitation to come round to your place so we can all watch it on the big telly! Get the snacks in!
I got a 75" making my way up to an 80 by next year lol
Only 80’’? Rookie numbers
@@laughlan lmao…. i know sorry :’(
Henry Catchpole reviewed this for Hagerty and he seemed as thoroughly impressed as you two. While I'll never pay this much money for a car, I can appreciate the basics+ approach that they took.
The fact that is a improved Group-B for streets it just say all, because just like Singer is perfection for any petrolicious owner should ever need..
@@poplaurentiu4148 got to see one of these and multiple singers in real life, one has to admit that singer has a league of its own when it comes to fit and finish and overall quality. although one should consider that kimera is a very young company, so their quality will probably improve with time.
@@poplaurentiu4148well sadly is.
Nice catch guys as this truly is something very special! Keep it up!
Same reason we all are. This thing is special.
@@sheiladavis2304really is special.
Everyone always comments on the production value, on EVERY video, but this... is beyond cinematic. So gorgeous. Much love to the whole team.
I love that companies reach out to them and have them review these cars. Throttle House is an amazing channel. They deserve it.
This video is a car enthusiast's dream come true-unmatched production value, in-depth knowledge, and a car that's practically a work of art. You guys have set a new standard for automotive content! 🌟
The car is absolutely unmatched.
First of all, amazing quality content as always gentlemen! You guys are my go to when it comes to car content. And secondly, my god is this thing beautiful! In the words of Jeremy Clarkson: "I have a soft spot for all Lancias, but in this (O47) its not soft". One cannot fathom how amazing this car is. The price though...
😂 I see what you did there
Well said
Steering "... that would make a GT3RS blush." 😳 That line got my attention! Hot damn!
This might be my most favorite car ever.
The lines on that car are absolutely stunning. What a machine. Lucky customer.
What an absolutely beautiful car! Loved it in both colors too and I don’t care for green. You guys are definitely blessed with the machines you have driven and I must say you and your team absolutely deserve it.
you still haven't seen the 037 with Martini livery, you can't stop drooling
The Green with yellow headlights make it look like a monster
This color of green looks great on almost any car
@@emanueljjit is also in GT2 PROJECT A SPEC MOD. It has 367bhp.
Lawd have mercy I’m boutta BUST!!
i have busted 🤝
yall really just added yet another letter to lgbtq+ 💀
I have been following these coach builders for a ping time and I'm so glad to see you guys do content on this car. It's truly incredible. And you guys put it together so well I couldn't be happier. Thank you. Sincerely
I was fortunate enough to see one of these in person at Pebble Beach, they look even better in the metal. For me, this is one of those poster cars that go onto my list of things to buy if I win the lottery. Great review!
Last April I saw 1 of the 37 Kimeras Evo37 that there are, and it was the only one that exists in Spain, and I have to say that it is beautiful in person and sounds really spectacular, like a racing car.
The definition of a true drivers car.
Man, the filmography on this has just about reached top gear levels, and I'm not saying that lightly. You guys are, truly, the best youtube car channel. I can tell because I watch almost all of them, or at least the ones above 150000 subscribers. It's not even close, there is nothing that comes near your presentation, humor, knowledge, filmography, production value, likeability,... Nothing. Even channels with 5 times the subscribers do not produce the quality you guys produce. You really need your own TV show, though that could also ruin the format because you would have to answer to a media company. Please keep going, I'll keep watching your episodes religiously. Sidenote, for those that don't yet know: there's also an "extra throttle house" channel. Go subscribe, it's worth it
I'm new to these guys and I immediately felt the same. I got Top Gear vibes right away
Agreed 💯
better than top gear
@@asifnoaman8978 Better than the new top gear, without a single doubt, by a huge margin. Better than the Jeremy, Richard and James top gear....those are mighty, mighty big shoes to fill. I'll go so far as to say that in some ways they are better, but better in general is a comparison I'm going to leave on the table
what are the motoring channels with over 13Mill subs?
I saw a review of the EV037 buy the manufacturer a while ago, I believe it was, and I was blown away. It's awesome that you boys got the opportunity to share it with us. I love that car!
I've been recently obsessed with this car, got SO excited to see this video pop up
Why am I awake at 6am for a Throttle House video 😂😂
right?
Brother. Me too
5am for me lol
Y'all should be awake for a job or school...bums 😂
@@jaysrandomnesschannel bro I’m omw to work listening to it. Shut your mouth m8😭
🏁🏁Great production value as usual on a very unusual car …Love you guys keep it coming 😎🤙🏾
This level of feel-good and enthusiastic emotions will never be achieved by any EV...ever
Never!
Wow. Literally every angle you have shown of this car is stunning. The level of attention to detail in every one of those angles is equally stunning. What an amazing machine. 👍🏻😎👍🏻
I actually cant believe you got it. A few years ago this could only be a dream and now its here. Huge congrats on this!
Production levels are off the charts! The video/editing is perfection. The blending of the old footage into your driving footage was brilliant. I really enjoy your videos, as well as watching your subscriptions climb. I got on board when you were at 1.86MIL. It is just growing beyond words
I watch dozens of different channels all the time and yours is soooo refreshingly different!!! Love IT!!! and you!!!
One of my favorite car related videos I have ever seen. The car, the production, that villa. Perfection
My God what a beautiful machine. I'm not often envious of others but the fact you two got to drive this……👌
Take this over any Hypercar any day
This is for someone who has the means and wants pure driving enjoyment, not a status symbol. This is not the kind of car that shows up in rap videos. Fully agree with you that this is what I think I'd want if I had the means to purchase one.
with toyota line 3 with variable vane electric assited turbo and a proper engine auto stop start
This is among the prettiest videos you guys have shot. Major kudos to the camera and editing team.
One of my favorite heroes of all time. Restomods are amazing! Especially when you can have a supercharger and a turbo on the same engine
It's a thing of beauty, top shelf material alongside Singer 911s and the Stratos. I always loved the look of the Beta Montecarlo and the 037 just took that to another level, as well as providing the performance its road going sibling lacked.
Perfect restomods like these are all I will ever want
the script writing, the camera work, the editing and of course the presentation... oh my goodness you Canadians boys make us proud! i believe you have outdone the OG top gear!
Oh my gosh, your guys' production quality just keeps surprising me each video! Great great job Team Throttle House, truly what a beautiful video and what a beautiful car!!! Thanks for sharing ;)
You guys are amazing storytellers and the production quality is uncomparable to the competition
Restomods are really amazing nowadays! They are teaching manufactures what a sports car is all about! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
ive been following them for a bit now so i was suprised when i saw your reel on insta with this car lol, i absolutely love it in the green, its just simply beautiful
Another car that is just the personification of perfection from the visual perspective and the experience I feel while watching your video. I have a 65 inch 4K TV with Bose sound, and your video takes the experience to a whole new level. I think there is a certain level where cars become pure art… Thank you.
the 037, the Stratos, and the Delta. Absolutely magnificent cars.
I remember the preview of this round about a year ago. Still stunning and even more refined. By the by, the 'ram eagle lion' is based on the Chimera mythological creature (now the company name should make more sense if it wasn't as obvious before).
I litteraly Ctrl+f-ed that just to see if someone had the same thought as me lOl
@@TonyStark-vo7uh same! I was yelling at the screen inside my head lol
thought it was a griffin.
@@TonyStark-vo7uh glad I did as well before adding my comment.
Throttle House is outstanding. To me, it stands apart and above other car review sites and publications. Love it!
That’s the first car I’ve ever seen that I didn’t wish something was different. It’s so jaw-droppingly gorgeous
What a gorgeous looking car!
This and the GMA T50 are the only current supercars that have that "I want this" factor for me. I have a Lancia Scorpion, which shares, oh, two panels and some floor with this thing, and even that is a ton of fun.
You guys are Easily one of THE BEST things on CZcams. Always absolutely nail the productions
I’ve been waiting for this video, made my week guys💯
I loved Lancia Beta's and Montacarlo's, such pretty cars. This restomod just does them justice. Lovely
Brilliant work guys. Such a stunning car, presented in a way it deserves.
I was smiling through the entirety of the video, while also having a tear in my eye :)
perfectly done guys
Great work guys! While it still had the TH style the production value was definitely a step up, aka OG Top Gear vibes for sure. This is why you guys truely are the best in the business these days.
You guys really out did yourselves on this production! Amazing car and it gives me the old Scirocco vibes which I like a lot! Love the combo supercharger and turbocharger! This is probably the coolest (not intended because of the A/C)? car you've ever reviewed! I wouldn't opt for the donor badge though. Also, don't know about the door opener. Both colors were awesome!
These guys are on another level man... just incredible editing and cinematography
I love this car so much it looks so menacing and I’ve always loved rally
I always loved the Lancia 037 B and the way it looked and now I'm falling in love all over again.
There are a lot of cars I respect, but this is one of the few I truly desire and would want in my perfect car garage.
Now if only I could afford it...
The more videos I watch from you guys, the envious I am of your job 💪
Hey Guys. I thought I’d let you know I’m currently in Europe and struck up a wagon vs SUV conversation with some Aussies and a few Dutch. It morphed into “those Throttle House guys you have are deadly!”. Global appreciation.. well done! …and thanks for another entertaining video!
*Jaw hit the floor* what a gorgeous machine! It is soooooo freaking cool!! Yes it's a little over the top in styling but it's also about as elegant as an Italian gentleman in a handmade suit. What car has widened wheel arches like that and somehow it looks like they are not added afterwards? The mix of straight and curvy, the stance, the paint vs carbon, the proportions, the detailing in the engine bay, the 3d striped interior padding... it's freaking awesome!!!
This car is just so desirable. The Martini version of is just the best looking car on the market today. What a beauty. Kimera is doing what Lancia lacks: building great cars.
They are build quite close to my home, so something to be proud of.
In the Netherlands?
@@fifthbusiness1678 Italy
Beautiful car! Amazing production quality! You guys are killing it!
THIS is something SPECIAL! Amazing work as always fellas - what a MACHINE!
The main reason why I still have my first car. Nothing beats the raw engagement of an actual drivers car. I was able to enjoy driving her alot more during those early days. Nowadays though, with so much traffic everywhere, it's only taken out on sunny days on a low volume traffic weekend. 🙂
Kudos to Kimera for offering some variety to the landscape. 👍😎
At that price, you'll never see it on any real-world landscape...
@@andoletube Goes without saying.. but for the tiny percentage who can... 😉
I wonder what this would look like with a slightly smaller wheel but thicker tire profile. Regardless, I love seeing these restomod cars with so much thought and detail involved in them.
I have loved this car for a while now and I was so excited to see you review it.
From now on, that car is the reason I will do everything I can to become a millionaire! I’m Italian and I’m old enough to have witnessed the original 037 winning the championship. Still have the chills. Will choose this over the Delta Futurista in a heartbeat ❤❤❤
Great stuff as always ! Discovered this great machine with Mr. Catchpole, glad you could drive it and make this great video for us. Cheers !
That car is one of the most beautiful cars I have ever seen!
Amazing review...need more of these PLEASE!!!!!!
Hats off to the wheel design team! Perfect,, especially in gold bronze with the green paint! (and the perfect wheel/tyre/wheelarch line too)
So so epic! Great video guys as always.
From the intro to the Lady & the Tramp starter, this video is a flawless victory! ...omg i want those wheels!
Good lord this is the most gorgeous restomod I've ever seen
Wow, that was ph*king awesome!! Thomas and James you are two very LUCKY guys to have had a chance to drive/experience that homage to Lancia rally racing!! I know what I'm going to be looking for when I win the lottery, LOL!!
I Had the pleasure to meet Luka at salon prev uk launch of this car a true gentleman and dedicated to perfection of car building hats off to the team that developed and built this car it s amazing and tribute to the italian car industry well done Luka
I remember seeing a Lancia like this on I think the grand tour a while back, loved it ever since. Such a breath taking car
The intro clipping was brilliant as always
Nice review men. Keep up your great work.
Damn they did a fantastic job with this thing! I love the mix of modern wheels and components but still keeps most of the original charm.
Everything about this whole video is just amazing.
Only as far as the intro, I saw this car in a Henry Catchpole video (watching this because I love these guys) and I think I would be staring too because this car is stunning.
My favorite video y’all have done, amazing machine.
The most beautiful car review in my life with the two best guys in the business ❤️
Bro congratulations this looks amazing
Sounds like nothing I've ever heard before, what a work of art 👏👏👏
O MAY GAD! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST LOOKING CAR I HAVE EVER SEEN!! I AM IN LOVE😍
These guys their intros are next level. James really should be a writer. He's got the talent.
my word - that car & color is absolutely gorgeous
Utterly fantastic! Thanks for sharing - this is truly the stuff of dreams.
Thanks for giving me a tent in my trousers with that rear three fourth view of the car with the engine cover off.
It's stunning.
I've never ever wanted a car so much in my life. It is, well, perfect!
Amazing…just the sounds alone are amazing
Loved those opening shots on the cars angles, beautiful.. ❤😊
Yet again you’ve smashed it out of the park chaps. What a car 😎
Your skits are so funny 🤣 Amazing review of an amazing car!
The presentation was so good
