Talos Vehicles, a British engineering firm that specializes in low-volume performance cars, has unveiled a new sports car after a lengthy two years of development. On the surface, it looks like a modified version of the Ferrari 599 GTB (because it is), but the so-called XXT is closer to a 599XX race car for the road. And yes, it is completely street legal.

Each car comes with a modified 6.0-liter V-12 engine that produces 674 horsepower, 54 more than the original, and 460 pound-feet of torque. It has an F1 Superfast six-speed paddle-shift transmission with an optional manual gearbox. Talos claims the XXT can hit 62 miles per hour in 3.5 seconds and reach a top speed of 205 mph.

The XXT comes with a custom carbon-fiber body that mimics the styling of the 599XX. It also has 20-inch forged wheels, with Talos offering optional single-nut hubs. The car is also available in left- and right-hand configurations.

Talos will limit production to just five cars, and buyers will be able to select bespoke options, including paint, interior trim, and matte- or gloss-finished trim. Talos will also offer engine, drivetrain, and exhaust modifications, as well as an optional roll cage and in-car entertainment choices.

Ferrari produced the 599 GTB Fiorano for five model years, with production ending in 2012. The model saw several variants over its lifespan, including a 599 GTO. The automaker replaced it with the F12berlinetta, with the 12Cilindri serving as the brand’s modern front, V-12-engine model.

The Talos XXT starts at £950,000, or $1.24 million at today’s exchange rate, and it requires a 599 GTB donor car. Talos builds its cars at its Yorkshire, England, facility. The company has built modified versions of the Porsche 911, Fiat 500, Ford S2000, and Land Rover Ranger Rovers and Defenders.
