\n

Miami\u2019s not really known for its subtlety, so how exactly does one make a small, supernaturally brilliant British sportscar laser-honed on lightness and agility stand out in a sea of glitzy trillion-dollar supercars and road-going tanks?<\/p>\n

A funky paintjob and a race weekend reveal, naturally. Welcome, friends, to Caterham\u2019s Big American Holiday: the Miami Special Edition. It will come as no great surprise that this is a special edition Caterham<\/a> that will be fully unveiled in Miami, at this weekend\u2019s Formula One race.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

It\u2019s decked out in special \u2018Aqua\u2019 paint (baby blue) with Miami-esque decals in white and pink flashed across the side, along with a little decal of the Miami GP circuit that finishes off the rear.<\/p>\n

It will come as no great surprise that inside the diminutive Caterham sits embroidered Miami script on the headrests, and specially engraved plaques on the dash and in the engine bay.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Speaking of which, it\u2019s a US-spec Seven R underneath, which summons the might of a 2.0-litre Ford Duratec four-pot for 210bhp, 375bhp-per-tonne, a 0-60mph time of 3.8s and a top speed \u2013 where permitted \u2013 of 136mph. Just remember to pack your slimline shoes.<\/p>\n

Why Miami, and why now? It\u2019s part of Caterham\u2019s mission to increase its US customer base, so where better than a packed Grand Prix race, It\u2019s also why 10 of the 12 Miami Special Editions are being made available exclusively to the carmaker\u2019s US dealer network.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
