SC 40 One Off Based on 296 GTB

So cool

 

Wow...just Wow.

 

I really like it, for the most part

 

If I wanted something that looks kinda like an F40 and had a V6, there's plenty of Fiero options . . .

 

I really like the back half and the wing (I still dream about drilling a functioning wing into the open gap on the Speciale). Not sure about the new retro-futurism look to the side intake, but it's better than the 849.

@jm2 does this remind you of Syd Mead style?

 

Now that you mention it………

 

If only production cars could look like their design sketches.

Given the privilege of a one-off, is it more likely Ferrari designated the 296 GTB as the available platform—rather than the client opting against the more track-focused 296 Speciale?

 

From my discussion with an SP owner, Ferrari offers the SP allocation to the customer but tells the customer which model will be the base.

 

That's weird. I mean, that's Bertone level weird.

 

I seem to recall watching a YouTube clip and it was about John Collins SP3JC and insisted on it being based on the TDF while they initially told him it was an F12 base

 

I like it.

Wouldn’t have chosen white though

 

I don't like it, doesn't resemble an F40 in any way, luckily there is only 1.

 

The OWNER seems to like it ... that's what counts.

 

Looks like a raccoon to me
