The Enzo reimagined.... Jim's Ferrari P 4/5 by Pininfarina

Yea, as I said I could go more in depth and give you a few different ideas thought on about just why Barracca had the horse on the plane. But that one is the one I usualy go by. I know so much usless crap about the Ferrari heritage its wierd, LOL. I just love em' (even the horrid cars(ok most,HEHE))

 

Thanks very much.

I took it one step further with a familiar change to the wheels also. Hopefully Jim doesn't mind these variations on his dream.

That looks really good

 

I saw the wheels like that in C&D, like them much better filled in.

Now add the vent slots back and make the roof red, lets see that, hehe

 

I did it in the name of saving unsprung weight actually.

For the record, I have no problem with the look of the wheels or the looks of the car. The idea for the changes to the roof section only came to me after browsing these shots of 0846.

Hey jim, do you happen to have anymore of the concept drawings from the C&D article? Or ones that didn't make it in C&D? It'd be great to see some!

 

There are more on the Pininfarina web site. Go to Press click on car for presskit and more photo's.

Mr. Glickenhaus/Napolis/jota;

I've been quietly observing this project since early 2006. It seems that the final result has surpassed all of your expectations. I was taken back by your constant rebukes of the numerous 'styling exercises' posted by users, reiterating time after time that they had little visual similarity to the final result. I thought that for sure one of them must have been very close and that your posts were simply diversionary tactics, but to my surprise you were correct: the design is completely fresh yet the inspiration is clear. It is indeed unlike the sketches that have been posted during the preceeding months. Taking it beyond a rebody to completely re-engineering an already superbly engineered car speaks for the trust and commitment between yourself and Pininfarina.

Amazing automobile, beautiful family, successful business.... surely you were a Saint in a past life. May you continue to enjoy all the fruits of your labor in good health.

Please be sure to let it be known when you will be displaying it, especially if in the Tri-State or Delaware Valley areas.

It's a complicated process a one that is some times difficult for some to understand especially as not everyone has seen styling models before and realize that they are simply tools to three dimensionally be able to see what you like and what you don't. The amazing thing to me is how using super computers you can go from a brief: Something that looks like a P4 mated to an Enzo chassis, to a finished car in just over a year and that's with the ability to make many, many changes along the way.

All of us that enjoy our lives are very lucky as the front page of any newspaper reminds us every day.

Best

 

I dont know if this was already posted but here it is anyway

http://www.dpccars.com/car-movies/08...FerrariP45.htm

 

That specific link hasn't, but the video was posted a few days ago. You can also find it at http://www.ferrarip45.com/p45.wmv.

 

There are now 2,930,000 mentions of P 4/5 on the net.

I'm really happy about how the people on this site:

http://realestn i g g a s.com/board/showthread.php?p=7716009&posted=1#post7716009

feel and I'm being totally serious as when the Chairman of The Board of Audi AG and these guys agree it's an interesting thing.

WARNING HIP HOP SITE THAT HOLDS NOTHING BACK

Put letters together and go to link. I'm not trying to override censorship filter here but linking to a Genuine Hip Hop Site that is really called that.

Also be warned that that site is infected with spyware and clean your computer after visiting

 

Haha, I'm sorry, but I did laugh when I saw your user level on the site.

Nice.

 

As you need about a million posts to rise to the next level I'm not sure I'm going to rise above that one.

On a serious note I've sent out all the invitations I have. This party is a bit oversold. Show up early as the Fire Marshall will shut it down at some point.

P 4/5 will also be outside on the Putting Green on Saturday and Sunday.

 

That filmclip was on the French national T.V autosport show sunday morning btw.

 

Did they give my son credit as cinematographer?

 

Sorry jim for the off topic stuff

The pics above are not of Baracca's plane or his squadrons. Those are most deffinetly the WWII Macchi M.C. 202 planes in remeberance to Baracca who died June 1918, here is a pic of him and his bi-plane with the horse design he had below.

If there is a squadron related to him, then that WWII squadron was made in remebrance of him since he was a WWI ACE. I see where it looks like it says "4th Baracca" Or somthing like that, so I am guessing that they were a tributary squadron, pretty cool.

Anymore on this then lets start a seperate Ferrari History thread

So how many of you plan on getting lots of Hi-res pics at Pebbel, I sure whis I could make it there, I trust you will all get some great shots for the community.

 

Bringing this back to topic.

Jim i Downloaded the press pack but did not find the actual pic i was looking for...

More specifically the frontal view of p4/5's sketch? I know for a fact it was in the C&D article. Hopefully you can give this fan a nice little high res pic of it???

 

I will be there, and will definately fill my camera with hi-res pictures, 200ish.
