4 Amazing Fastback Cars That Got Lost in Time!

4 Amazing Fastback Cars That Got Lost in Time! Let's take a closer look at four forgotten fastback coupes that were once meant to stand out, but for one reason or another, disappeared into history. Each of these cars had something special—whether it was design, engineering, or the story behind it—but they just could not survive in the long run. Now, they are rare and mostly unknown outside of car enthusiast circles. We start with the Volkswagen SP2, a Brazilian-built sports car that looked like it came from Europe but was designed and made entirely in Brazil during the 1970s. It was born during a time when Brazil banned most imported cars, forcing car companies to get creative. With its sleek body, pop-up headlights, and rear engine, the SP2 had the looks—but not the power. Its nickname "Sem Potência" meant “without power,” and sadly, that joke stuck. But today, it stands as a strange and beautiful example of what happens when a company steps outside its comfort zone. Next is the Škoda 110 R, a car from Czechoslovakia that looked like a miniature European sports car but came from behind the Iron Curtain. Built during the Cold War, it had rear-wheel drive, frameless doors, and a fastback body. It was not very quick, but it became the foundation for some of Škoda’s most successful racing cars, like the 130 RS that earned the nickname “Porsche of the East.” It showed that even in a restricted and controlled economy, carmakers could still dream a little. Then there’s the Manic GT, one of the few Canadian sports cars ever made. It came from Québec, built by a man who just wanted to make something fun and lightweight for local drivers. It used parts from Renault, had a fiberglass body, and offered up to 105 horsepower. It was fast, light, and looked like a mix between a European coupe and a homemade project. Sadly, it only lasted a couple of years due to financial problems and lack of parts. Lastly, we look at the Matra Murena from France, a wedge-shaped, rust-proof sports car with three seats in the front. Yes, three seats across! It used a mid-engine layout and came with options up to 142 horsepower. Though it had a short production run, it was full of clever design choices—like its fiberglass panels and unique seating. It was not just a car—it was an experiment on wheels. ____ We do not own the footages/images compiled in this video. It belongs to individual creators or organizations that deserve respect.
