Welcome to Miami: Caterham arrives at new Florida dealership

American fans of the famous Caterham Seven have a new outlet to purchase one. Walt Grace Vintage, located in Miami, Florida, has been chosen as the latest official dealership for the British sports car marque.

Fittingly, Walt Grace Vintage is the seventh Stateside outlet for the Caterham Seven, as the brand continues its expansion into North America.

Enthusiasts will be able to configure a new Caterham Seven, place an order, and take delivery of their lightweight roadster through the new Miami dealership.

Welcome to Miami

Opened in 2015, Walt Grace Vintage offers a unique gallery-style showroom, focused on a combination of ‘investment-grade automobiles, watches and guitars’.

Bill Goldstein, founder of Walt Grace Vintage, commented: “We are thrilled to bring Caterham to Miami. With the Seven being such an iconic car, coupled with an incredible driving experience and competitive motorsport offering, we are honoured to become part of the Caterham story in the USA.”

The Caterham Seven 420R seen here is the first car for sale in Miami. It uses a 210 horsepower four-cylinder Ford Duratec engine and a Mazda-sourced manual transmission.

With a 0-60 mph time of 3.8 seconds, test drives in the Seven 420R will certainly be exhilarating.

A global expansion for Caterham

Caterham’s existing US dealer network includes outlets in California, Colorado, New York and Washington state, along with Daytona Beach, Florida.

Trevor Steel, CFO at Caterham Cars, added: “Walt Grace Vintage is the perfect cultural fit for us, and we welcome them to the Caterham family. Miami has a renowned and eclectic automotive scene, and this partnership will give more USA-based enthusiasts the chance to experience the unique thrill of driving a Seven from the racetrack to Ocean Drive.

“Bill and his team at Walt Grace Vintage are driven by the same principles we have at Caterham. To be in one of the most vibrant art and cultural hubs in Florida brings an exciting new chapter for us in North America.”

Caterham continues to manufacture its vehicles exclusively in England, and now supplies 15 different markets around the world. 

Along with opening a larger factory last year, the company is developing its first fully electric sports car, which will be on show at CES in Las Vegas next month.
