LAKEVILLE, Conn. (September 5, 2024) — Sacrilege Motors, a bespoke performance, restoration, and electric-conversion studio, is proud to be invited back to The Bridge to participate in their invitation-only annual exhibition of classic and racing automobiles. Hosted on the beautiful private golf club that sits on the hallowed grounds of the original Bridgehampton Race Circuit, The Bridge has become one of the hottest tickets on the collector and enthusiast car calendar.

After bursting onto the scene in 2023, Sacrilege Motors co-founders Phil Wagenheim and Bobby Singh continue to capture the attention and excitement of enthusiasts and journalists alike. Following last year’s debut of the Blackbird Roadster, they are now introducing the incredible Enigma coupe. Enigma, a widebody, sunroof-delete coupe, is finished in a stunning Arabian Grey. With Enigma, Sacrilege Motors expands their offerings to give buyers a choice between an open-top or closed-roof classic.

Automotive enthusiasts can now create their dream build through the new Sacrilege Motors Virtual Showroom. Created by Brigade, the same team who developed custom online configurators for Singer Vehicles and Bollinger Motors, the Sacrilege Motors Virtual Showroom gives consumers complete control over their bespoke vehicle design. The Virtual Showroom is available at SacrilegeMotors.com.

Sacrilege Motors has reimagined the legendary air-cooled sports car to create an entirely new driving experience. The handling and steering feel are familiar, yet the acceleration and performance elevate the icon to something completely different. A state-of-the-art Fellten drivetrain is wrapped in a completely restored factory steel wide body, either coupe or roadster, and finished in any color desired, topped with six layers of clearcoat and fully wrapped in Xpel paint protection film.

Inside, a bespoke interior is uniquely crafted to each owner’s specific tastes and requirements. The driver is surrounded by the world’s finest Italian hand-stitched leather, while vintage round gauges house essential information to maximize the electric drivetrain’s performance. The interior feels vintage, with discrete modern touches such as a center-mounted MagSafe charger and a high-powered Bluetooth audio system fully integrated.

500 horsepower and 500 newton-meters of torque (with a weight and distribution almost identical to the original ICE-powered vehicle) deliver near supercar performance. This lightweight package was optimized for drivers, with custom-developed three-way adjustable Penske Racing shocks and Brembo six-piston brakes to deliver a nimbleness and driving feel that no other EV can match.

“Our experience last year proved that this is truly one of North America’s great automotive events. The quality of the cars on display and the overall presentation rivals the best events in the country. We’re excited to return to showcase Enigma, our first coupe, to this very discerning audience. As a longtime Porsche® owner, the goal from the start with this project was to preserve the unique experience of a Porsche®. The steering feel, the handling, the braking, even the weight transfer, we set a very high bar for ourselves. Through our countless hours of engineering, and our outstanding partners at Fellten and Penske Racing Shocks, we think we’ve nailed it. With the response we’ve received from around the world, it’s clear we’re resonating with others, too.”

Phil Wagenheim, Sacrilege Motors CEO

“We’re engineering and developing our cars at Lime Rock Park to deliver a true Porsche® driving experience. So, it’s fitting that we’re showing our cars on the hallowed grounds of this storied racing circuit. Bridgehampton was the first track I ever went to—it was a Porsche® event—way back in 1990, and I have very fond memories of the circuit. It was a true driver’s track, and our 500 HP lightweight sports cars would have been a blast to wheel around it. The Sacrilege Motors cars are so dialed in, they would be quicker than some of the purpose-built racing machines that battled it out there back in the day.”
