    looks definately lika colani design. hard to find any info about it as all the searches are leading to the famous lotec-colani-ferrari testa d'oro

    i'd say it's dino based, if that helps

    the lenght of the front doesn't mean anything - colani always tends to make the noses so huge

    best proof here



    yea the line of the windows looks like 275 or maybe 365, but i remember there was some connection between dino and colani and that's what it came to my mind

    That is the wierdest looking Viper I have ever seen. Wow. Just wow. Maybe holy crap, but I think wow works better.

    Colani has a quite unconventional approach to aerodynamics - i.e. he actually uses aerodynamic shapes, which tend to end up looking quite outlandish.
    Thanks for all the fish

    I don't find the Viper to be outlandish, it actually ooks quite nice. The Ferrari is, however, one of the most exagerated and strangest looking cars I've ever seen.

    Most likely a Daytona. With the cooling ducts behind the front wheels and the hood scoop better not be just show.

    Can't say it's an improvement on a Daytona, but I don't know this thing's performance potential.

    It's definately a Daytona, one of possibly two, there's reports of a red one as well.

    It could be a friggin' kit-car or a juiced-up FIAT X1/9.
    Somehow, it looks like a hybrid between Dino and Daytona.

    Wait a min...., it could be a FIAT Dino coupe.

    EDIT: Make a image scearch on Fiat Dino, that car is strikingly similar to this one, except it has a front-aero end.

    It's a late 70s aerodynamica styling exercise by Colani (Luigi Colani - "The Proffessor"), based on a Ferrari 365 GTB/4.

    The photo was lifted from the German magazine "DAZ Deutsche Auto Zeitung" in the late 70s to early 80s.
