Ferrari 612 GTO: not real, sadly

Best-rider-77 · 08-21-2010, 05:27 AM

Ferrari doesn't make a new GTO very often. About every 21 years, on average.
So with the 599 GTO landing in a giant, drifty plume of tyre smoke just a couple of months back, it's hyper-unlikely that we'll see any other current Ferraris converted to GTO spec in the near future.
Which is why German designer Sasha Selipanov has taken it upon himself to imagine how a 612 Scaglietti GTO might look. An ultra-hardcore version of Ferrari's four-seater grand tourer, you say? The results are spectacular, and more than a little reminiscent of the One-77.
See more pictures of the 612 GTO
Selipanov hasn't given any hint what might be done to the Scag's 5.7-litre V12, or indeed any other mechanical details, so we'll leave that to you to speculate. 600bhp is surely a minimum, though? And just think of all the wild technology Ferrari could test out on a Scaglietti GTO. Let your techimaginations run wild... and roll on 2031.

Don't know if it's a repost, But this is just insane

That car is not very ferrari-ish. I like it, but nowhere near what they would produce.

+1

It is an Aston One-77 with a 458 headlights. The front sort of looks like a tuned 350Z. Looks very good, but not Ferrari like.

don't like the front end. looks like sh1t.

bunnn · 08-21-2010, 11:35 AM

It reminds me of the GTR for some reason

Garduna · 08-21-2010, 07:59 PM

Definately not a ferrari like deisgn but I love the way it looks!!!

NewYearsBoy · 08-21-2010, 08:49 PM

Not very ferrari-ish I agree.. The lights look like it came from a infinite G37... Also I thought the California had a Big Ass dam this car is vida guerra in car form..

There's hardly any bodywork up front; just a huge bug catcher.

don't see the resemblance there, but gtr front end is miles better than this one still.

There is a very real resemblance to the one that got it all started. I think it is a very good design concept
