    Attached below is the 1970 cadillac NART designed by none other than Luigi Chinetti Jr and produced by Zagato.
    I have heard many people say that it is horribly ugly. Personally, I love the look of this car. The lines are stange but I think it somehow works and I would be happy to have it in my garage. Chinetti knew what he was doing with Ferrari and this cadillac could have been a hit if it had been a different era in automobile production. Call me crazy.

    It reminds me of a Lamborghini Jalpa.

    Looks like a Maserati Bora. Reminds me of what a real artist Pininfarina is!

    The wheels are painfully bad, but the car itself is OK.

    Is it just that particular photo, or are those windows huge? Pretty cool looking.

    Last month, at the Ferrari Fall Getaway in Greenville, SC, I had the rare chance to sit down
    with Luigi Chinetti, Jr. and talk with him about racing past and present and auto design. It
    was funny, we were arriving back at the hotel from dinner and he asked me what Ferrari
    that was parked in front of the hotel. It was a black F430 spyder. He didn't care for the
    design that much. I asked him what design he liked of the modern cars and his answer was
    the new Nissan/Infiniti coupe! Not the answer that most would expect from such a person.

    It was a great thrill to be able to spend some time with one of the Ferrari legends. Great
    guy Luigi, I just can't handle as much wine as him.

    You need to go look at a Bora again.

    It looks like a lot of cars that never made it to market but it does remind me somewhat of a Toronado.
    Perhaps a TorinoToronado?????
