Anteros

Official Return for the Golden Age of Coachbuilding

Anteros is a limited production 2-seat convertible sports car featuring 400 to 600 horsepower, a carbon XTM fiber composite body with a fine leather & wood interior, and state-of-the-art technology throughout.
Anteros takes its name from the ancient god of Passion. It is a passionate expression of Automotive Fine Art. Anteros Founders, John Rothman, and son, David Rothman, commissioned a team of talented designers and fabricators to create an elegant car that seamlessly blends both contemporary and classic sports car DNA into a stunning artistic sculptural statement. Anteros uses the base engineering of the C6 platform as a foundation to create this 550 horsepower super car.

With pricing between $125,000 and $135,000, the Anteros XTM will be manufactured on a semi-custom build-to-order basis.

History

In 2002, John & Joann Rothman, along with their son, David Rothman, wanted to create a sports car of pure beauty, power, and elegance. They began implementing their idea of automotive beauty drawing inspiration and style from the classic 60’s era with the intent of incorporating the technology of today.
Under the direction of Award Winning graphic design artist, Franklin Burris, conceptual design artist, Don Johnson, and sculptor, John Allen, the basic shapes of the Anteros were hand carved and developed. The product of over 5000 hours of sculpting was a stunningly elegant Supercar that utilizes the highly acclaimed C-6 platform and now stands alone as a superlative example of automotive vision and creativity.
Anteros was debuted with wild and enthusiastic acclaim at SEMA in 2005. Further market recognition was received at Barrett Jackson in early 2006 and then the Monterey Car Classic Show resulted in a waiting list of dealers and individual customers. Each hand signed and numbered Anteros takes approximately 850 hours to build using the latest technology and highest standard of materials and quality control.
