    No. That's not a Ferrari concept but an individual designer named Arturo Alonso who did this. His idea would be to base this on a Ferrari 456 GT. So if you have a 456 GT and a lot of spare cash, you can have it made :). Post pictures when it's done, i love it.

    that also doesn't resemble the 456 in the slightest..looks more like a more classic ferrari like the 330GTO

    It looks like a modern take on a 340 Mexico. I think it looks wild and is an interesting take on a retro-styled vehicle.

    The front looks too much like an Avanti with a big Studabaker grill in the middle of it. I'm not a fan of the inboard headlights, they would look much better if they could move them out more. I'm also not a big fan of the fastback design but that's just me.

    I like the overall concept and basic shape, it's just the things I mentioned make it look a bit odd to me.

    Very nice car, but if he changed the headlights into a 250 GTO or 246 Dino style headlights it would've looked much better. Those 4 bulbs/light looks like they're machine guns or something haha

    Mercifully. And that's being overly gracious.

    The only Ferrari I see there is the grill itself, the rest looks like a mish-mash. One would hope the factory would take measures to avoid such excrescences from ever even wearing a cavallino. There's no hit and miss.....it's a complete, utter, and heinously so.....a miss. Attaching even the sequence letter/numbers that resemble Ferrari is disgusting and presumptuous.

    i see many amazing possibilities within the concept.
    this is not one of those clever ideas.

    This is better....even being German. Bond drove one of these in one the Brosnon movies.

    Couldn't help but notice the similarity.
