    Am I right in the assumption that this 'car' is nothing else but a mediocre rendering from someone who thought it would be cool to mate a Fiat 500 with a Ferrari engine, with no connection to reality at all? But hey, it says "official" in the headline...:)

    Interesting concept but for a $550,000 price tag I'd rather buy a real 458 and have some cash to spare.

    There doesn't appear to be any separation of the engine from the driving compartment so basically you're going to be sat in the engine bay! :eek:

    I can't see that being very comfortable for any length of time!

    If you hit a solid wall,
    you would be very intimate
    with the engine, for sure

    I had some friends in the late 1960's
    (Yeah, I know....don't go there)
    whose day job was retrofitting
    and re-military-activating P51
    fighters for an (unnamed)
    caribean country for the
    US defense biz.

    In their spare time, they took
    my then-defunct BMW 300
    (Iseta) and installer a
    Merlin V-12 engine......

    HIGH power to weight ratio.....
