    i finally got my car from germany...i'm so excited, i had to tell someone, since my wife has no interest at all..it's a 67, rare ZF 5 speed 350hp...

    i'd never actually seen a grifo in person, until mine arrived, and i have to say, it really blew me away...

    here's some terrible shots...

    Nice! Thoose double rear mounted antennas must been attached on the car in the 80th, on the fashion at that time ;-)

    Nice Phil,

    When mine arrived they had to pull a Ferrari GTO off the transporter to get it out, yes it was a real GTO. At one point the two cars were sitting in the street next to each other and IMO from a pure aesthetics point of view the Grifo was the winner. Not a bad angle on it.

    Congratulations!

    A very beautiful and underrated car.

    So, did you mean you've never seen 'a' Grifo, or 'this' Grifo? If 'a' would you mind sharing as there must be a story here. . .

    And, congratulations!

    is that YOUR car? what a fantastic color! you're not in the NY area are you?

    the story is i'd never seen a grifo in person...just in magazines, web, etc..so when they opened up the container, my head bloody rolled off my body in amazement...

    thank you all for the congrats..!

    Very nice S1, looks good in that color. I just saw a purple one last weekend. I have seen a lot of Isos, including Grifo, Lele, S4, Fidia, Rivolta, Isetta, hmm, any others I'm forgetting?

    I registered on this forum to be allowed to see the pics of your dream car. The Iso Grifo is for me the epitom of the Italian design during its golden period. Sherish it and enjoy it humbly as an Ancient Times' relique.
