    Yeah needs parking sensors!

    Although at 350 km/h maybe they didn't make parking a priority :p

    Good day All,

    Just adding the pics... Did anyone notice the cars in the background... a PInin and possibly a 275 GTS ...

    Cheers,

    Sam

    It reached 350 yet the speedometer goes to 500. That's true optimism!

    I think its pretty darn cool, the price is a stretch. I LOOOVE the Pinin, they are only asking $795k for it. Seems like a bargain in today's market. Maybe Jim G. can buy the Pinin and keep it with the Dino Comp and the Modulo! That would be awesome.

    Would have been very dangerous to drive even at the Salt Flats. I have seen a few land speed record cars with windshields as oblique as that and they are impossible to see through. I saw one a few years ago run and it left the course because he couldn't see. Tore off across open country and when he figured it out and stopped the safety people told him to load it back on the truck.

    Colani certainly thought "outside the box". Never heard of it before. If it really had run and gone 350 I would have expected it to be well known.

    Looks like an image of Gabe Kaplan on the steering wheel. Maybe John Travolta will buy it?

    Back in the day, this unusual car was a popular subject around here. It has been a while, though, so interesting to see it's enjoying a resurgence.

    2010: No category for custom Ferraris but maybe this would be in crappy replicas

    2008: Another Colani 'Ferrari', the Testarossa based "Testa d'Oro"

    2007: FREAKY FERRARIS

    2006: Colani Ferrari Prototype

    2005: Colani Ferrari Lotec Testa d'Oro

    2004: FERRARI testarossa.....never seen.

    2003: Colani Testa d'Oro
