The hits from Monterey Car Week keep on coming, with the latest being the Maserati MCXtrema track-only supercar.

Based on the gorgeous MC20, the MCXtrema boasts far more angular styling, an aggressive aerodynamics package, and 730 horsepower from its Nettuno twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6.

Making its debut at The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering, the Maserati racer will be limited to 62 units, and as a track toy, it won’t be street-legal.

But for privateers and collectors, the MCXtrema will be a worthy followup to the MC12 Corsa from the mid-2000s.

There’s also a roof-mounted split air intake that flanks a prominent, illuminated sharkfin, which improves stability and routes air toward the massive rear wing.

In the transition from slinky MC20 supercar to aggressive track rat, the MCX gets sleeker, sharper bodywork, with a longer and lower front end

Inside the MCXtrema, everything extraneous has been removed for weight savings and to help the driver focus on the task at hand.

The steering wheel boasts a 5.0-inch display, buttons and rotary selectors, carbon and aluminum construction, and a squared-off grip design for both aesthetics and ergonomics.
