I just learned that a coachbuilder mad e a one-off 599 SA Aperta with a 575 Superamerica style rotating roof.

Very cool. Quite a simple design I think, at least compared to some modern cars like the 911 Targa where the whole back of the car has to move out of the way of the roof. It’s missing the trick electrochromic part the 575 had that would change the opacity of the glass at the flip of a switch.

There’s even !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . This is a cool car. Would love to see a build vid. I wonder where they got the roof panel from, perhaps cutting up some other poor 599?

The Renault Wind does something similar though it has a section that comes up for the roof to flip into.

That’s right! I had read about that once. Of course we don’t get them in Australia.

Very cool design.

Just a Renault Twingo in a coupe form.

They can be had from £1,500 for a 2010 with 80,000 miles up to the latest which is a 2012 with 39,000 miles for £4,999.

You could probably buy all 43 Renault Winds on Autotrader for the price of that Ferrari. Which saying £5,000 for all the Winds some to £ 215,000

I’m not into Ferraris myself but those blue and alloy wheels on the Ferrari look like what you’d expect to see on a bogans 1980s Holden Commodore.

Lol still tan/saddle/beige etc are all bad. Black or a combo of black and some other color especially the exterior beat out all other options for me.

Damn, that is cheap.

Haha I’ve seen some Commodores but I can’t quite picture that one.

Ye’, they started out at just under £13,000 going up to £18,000.

Engines ranged from the 99bhp 1.2 litre turbo up to the 131bhp 1.6 litre.

Cars so niche like the Wind bottom out pr ice wise very quickly.

Some thing like a VK with wheels switched up.

VK :) I saw a nice VL yesterday. It was paler than that blue.

I believe it had plain ol’ wheels. Not the 80s ricer kind
