Two years after the hugely successful sold-out 2021 event, Giltrap Group has confirmed this year's Starship Supercar Show will be held across two days (16-17 September) to allow even more people to experience New Zealand's most impressive gathering of high-performance and luxury machinery, with 100% of ticket sales revenue going to the Starship Foundation.
The show will mark the NZ debut of the Aston Martin Valkyrie, and celebrate the milestone anniversaries for Aston Martin (110), Porsche (75), Lotus (75), Lamborghini (60) and McLaren (60).
This year the event will host the official New Zealand debut of the 1140bhp Aston Martin Valkyrie, designed in partnership with Red Bull Racing. The Valkyrie comes as close as possible to being a Formula One car without being restricted to the track; the perfect way to pay tribute to Aston Martin's 110 years.
Another star attraction for 2023 is the all-new Lamborghini Countach, one of only 112 built. Launched 50 years after the original Countach stunned the Geneva Motor Show, the new LPI-800-4 is an equally stunning car to see in the flesh. This hybrid powered Countach will be part of a celebration of Lamborghini's 60 years as a supercar builder.
This year also marks 60 years of McLaren, and the show will feature some of their finest and rarest Supercars, including the super-rare 403km/h Speedtail and the Elva, which pays tribute to Bruce McLarens all-conquering Can Am race cars. Porsche will mark 75 years at the show.
Porsche with an eight-car display, including the new 911 Dakar, a 21st-century re-boot of the legendary Dakar Rally-winning 911 from 1984.
Rounding out the anniversaries, Lotus celebrates 75 years and will debut the all-new Eletre Hyper-SUV alongside the Emira.
More cars will be announced in the lead-up to the show!
