Man that looks an awful lot like an Alfa Romeo Montreal.
I guess Gandini was really in a phase at that time.

Whoa, I guess you can tell the designer right away--- It looks like the Alfa Montreal and the Triumph Stag had a baby. A big green baby.

My reaction, too. IIRC I think “his clients” were a little peeved that he was “recycling” design elements a bit too freely in this phase. I vaguely recall a piece I read years ago about this dust-up. That Stag-roof looks pretty familiar as well.

Gandini, Giugiaro, all those guys recycled their shit so many times.
