Abarth 2000 Sport (SE010) is a rear-engined racing car built by Italian car maker Abarth, which won its class at the 1000 km of Monza in 1971 and finished 11th overall.[4] It was homologated for FIA Group 4 on 1 April 1969 with homologation number 252,[2] and participated in a number of car races from 1969 to 1973.[5] At least 50 cars were constructed, including the Sport SE mid-engine variant (SE014/019).[6][7][8]

2000 Pininfarina Scorpione

The Abarth 2000 Pininfarina Scorpione is a rear-engined prototype sports car, designed by Italian design company Pininfarina, and developed and built by Abarth, in 1969.[9][10] One prototype vehicle was built, and was displayed at the Brussels Motor Show in 1969.[11][12][13]

In the 1975 stop motion-animated film The Pinchcliffe Grand Prix, the racing car of Heinrich von Schnellfahrer is based on the Abarth 2000, upgraded with amongst others a larger rear wing and engine.[14]
