If this ain't a worthy replacement for a coop what is?

@BarmyBob: shall we co-own one if it turns out a bit pricey wink

Hmmm, interesting, I think they've done a better "retro styling" job than the Fenomen version from a few years ago: http://www.italiaspeed.com/2005/motor_show/geneva/preview/holistic/gallery/gallery.html

I nearly bought a replica a few years ago, but got a Fiat Dino 2400 Coupe instead cool

I'm with Skint. Design something new, not something that looks like a Stratos made of wet soap. That's not 'design cues', that's just lazy.

Another in the no camp. Can't help thinking that if it had a jap badge on, there would be a few more saying how ugly it is. It's not hideous, but it's not beautiful.

Very very tasty. One of the best "retro-designs" I've seen..

Not to my taste, too fussy and not as subtle as our toys. I'm surprised at you Alesi, you need to get out [in that plus] more laugh

Paint it white and put some Alitalia stickers on I'd have it laugh

If they are definately making it, it'd be a shame not to take it rallying. Be nice if Fiat/Alfa/Lancia entered WRC, but doubt if it would be competetive without 4wd.

You're absolutely right Edinburgh.
About the need to get more out in the plus.

Spotted this elsewhere and I'm firmly in the yipee camp... also can't help wondering, if this is real and if they make it, surely there'd be a platform under there they could also use for some related cars to market under other group marques?

...can dream anyway

Don't like the headlights. It looks a bit sad. But otherwise... lovely. I hope we'll see it on the road a lot. Which means they'll have to offer a basic entry-level car too.

Apparently it's a one off build by Pininfarina for German Michael Stoschek.
Based on a shortened Ferrari 430 Scuderia-Chassis weighing 1240 kg, powered by a Ferrari-V8.
