Looks like some sort of Ferrari 250 Testarossa replica.

Yeah, very TRish, but they only had one air intake on the hood, and one roll “hoop”.

Yeah, it’s not 100% accurate but it has definitely been inspired by the 250.

Gotta be a replica just based on the seats. Side vent is reminiscent of an old maserati. Kind of a combination of some Maserati birdcage concepts and some other 60’s era maseratis. Definitely plays of the Testarossa as well. But the seats really give it away as a more modern car. Those were not around in the early sixties...And I doubt someone would take a million dollar car and change the seats...

Looks like a Maserati 300S, but it’s off in many details such as the headlamps, hood domes, grille (obviously, no trident), double headrests, and the shape of the vent in the fenders is wrong, among other proportional problems. The wheels also look like modern Borrani copies. There are some replicas out there, maybe this is one.

I’ve been searching around for replica shots, but can’t find one like this. Probably on a Beetle chassis!
