Sebring International is a British sports car manufacturer, based in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire. They produce a range of open-top sports cars.

Range

The firm produces a range of sports cars: the SX, TMX, MXR, ZX and Exalt. They use fibreglass or metal bodywork, the style of which is reminiscent of the classic Austin-Healey 3000 sports cars produced between 1959 and 1967.

The name derives from the Sebring International Raceway in the USA, at which Austin-Healey cars were very successful.

A range of engine options is available, including 5.7L Chevrolet V8, 3.5 - 4.6L Rover V8, and various Ford and Nissan powerplants. Automatic transmission or 5-speed manual gearbox can be specified (except on the ZX, which is manual-only). Hardtops are available on some models

Cars are sold either in kitcar form or fully built.

Although road-legal, the ZX variant was intended for trackdays and sprints, being powered by a range of V8 engines delivering up to 500 bhp.
