Triumph GT6 Mk I

Overview

Produced: 1966-1968, 15818 produced.
Types: Coupe, 2 doors, 2+2 seats

The Triumph GT6 made its debut in 1966 and followed the lines of the 1965 Le Mans Spitfires. Which had featured a fastback style body. The GT6 was intended to offer more performance than the 4 cylinder Spitfire and also more practicality than the open model. The engine was the same six cylinder used in the 2000 saloon and Vitesse models and offered plenty of power.

The GT6 looked very elegant and quickly gained praise for being a "poor mans E-type", even if its hairy handling characteristics were in need of improvement. The GT6 Mk I shared the same full width grille styling with the Spitfire 4 and many trim items were also common.
