Leonardo Fioravanti is a genius.

Great thread, thanks Leon.

Brilliant Leon, Thank you so much, i was hoping to see a C2, i allways liked it better than the M12.

I like the C2 too, the M12 was a little of a disappointment, and the golden windows prevented me from seeing the interior too (which actually seemed like those from a standard BMW of those years, nothing special)

Leonardo Fioravanti is a genius.

Great thread, thanks Leon.

1992 Italdesign Machimoto

The courage to astound.
It seems a game, a sign of the will to live. Seven seat leisure vehicle on chassis designed by Italdesign, and fiberglass bodywork.

Engine and mechanics: VW Golf GTi

One-off model

Although marginal in market terms, the theme of the spider is recurrent in car design and has inspired fascinating creative contributions. Of course, an open-top sports car is only half a car, but its pure nature is the closest to a dream. The tradition was strong in the 1950s, grew in the 1960s and 1970s, to then fade until the 1990s. The ideas from Turin have focused for a century not only on form but brought out the all-round quality of an unrivalled experience: driving in the open air.

Michelotti's haute couture completes the work.
