Interesting wheels, definetly not stars or star-shaped.

Also, it looks like the 612 bodywork is sitting over the real stuff - suggesting the car is a lot smaller. Look at all of the wierd gaps, etc.

The front looks much shorter than a 612 and the rear has to be much shorter than the faux body panels as well given where the wheels are.

I love it when you talk dirty!

 

They look like the old challenge rims.

 

this new yellow mule has old speedlines on it. the red mule has star shaped wheels that are taped up so you can't see the the two spokes that create each arm of the star. there are referneces and pictures earlier in the thread that show this detail. the new back photos posted earlier are the most interesting. it looks like the car will have some type of buttress design (ie-superamerica or 246/308/328/348/355).

 

Looks like the car will be a lot smaller than that mule. Thank God it will not be bulky

 

I saw that in person at the factory last month when I was in Italy. Sounded fantastic! The tour guide just looked at us and said "Don't ask" As we were leaving it was lapping around Fiorano.

 

I don't think these have been posted yet:

I wonder where they got that it will carry "Testarossa" on it from.

Isn't that the GG50?

--Dan

 

Yes this is it. This ugly piece of junk is the Giugiaro GG50 concept. A unique 612 coach made to promote the Bridges in magazines end TV ads, that's all. Nothing to do with a future 4-seater.
Looks like a kitcar with pimp-lowrider-bud'drunks wheels.

if only i could reach through and rip off those fake body panels

 

Nice!! A 6-sp manual even.

 

Hmm, it's going to be tall.

Gone are the days of the waist high 308s...

 

i see that it has a manettino also...things keep getting more and more interesting!!

 

Absolutely hideous. (imo)

 

Mine too.

 

The interior is not finished. Made with 612 parts. Big red button, central console (with those ugly 612 controls).

/..."Gone are the days of the waist high 308s..."
Unfortunately, indeed.

The 612 is nicknamed the "dead whale".

 

Remind me, when is it set to debut? We must be getting close as the auto show season will be starting soon.
