    Hi Guys,

    Remember the 599 GTB-based Vandenbrink GTO? Unfortunately that project has silently died some years ago...

    But how about an F12-based "M12 GTO by Michiel van den Brink"?

    Here you go Michiel... it would be interesting to see what the treatment to the F12 tail might look like.

    Thanks!

    For now the tail would look much the same as my original GTO-design.
    I'm redesigning the front end now.

    Is it supposed to look anything like the F12 or just F12 dimensions? That image has no soul IMHO.

    Good to see you back Michiel … and still a big fan of your design. Too bad the 599 based GTO was never built. Would love to see some more pics of the M12 GTO or is it the same as the 599 based GTO but adjusted to the volumes / dimensions of the F12 which is obviously more compact.

    Cheers,

    M

    The design can't be exactly the same, because the original styling model belongs to my former business partner and that design also was not finished. After so many years, and because I'd like to use the F12, the GTO deserves to be redesigned.

    SP America too much.

    You would need to really create something that stands out by itself.

    It depends what you want to achieve. If you are chasing interpretation of modern Ferrari`s go after single outlet.

    Thanks for sharing the progress. So is this getting built by Ferrari commissioned by yourself?

    No, this is designed by me and hopefully built by my team. Ferrari has nothing to do with this.
