Based on the 308 GT4, one of very few Ferraris designed by Bertone. Originally shown in white but later painted a light blue. Escaped auction when Bertone went bankrupt, is now part of the Bertone Collection of the Automotoclub Storico Italiano. Photorgaphed below at the 2019 Chantilly Arts & Elegance.
Very cool roof design and unique as far as I know. Reminds me of the 575 Superamerica roof, but also very different. Good to see it’s still driving around - even if it never made production, it is very much a real car.

The wheels on the last picture are quite unique :

I remember when that came out. Hated it then and still hate it now. It makes that 408 I posted earlier look good by comparison.
While I do love the 308GTB, I have a soft spot on my heart for the often overlooked and unloved 308GT4, another Ferrari by Bertone. So crisp and sharp.

I had no idea this existed! Another piece of oddball Ferrari history. Those graphics were ahead of their time!

I believe the http://www.formfreu.de/ guy owns one of those, sometimes he posts personal pictures.

The side view in that first photo has Citroen written all over it - lo oks like an SM got funky with a BX. Not too surprising I guess, since the BX is also a Gandini design.
The other views: not so much.

That thing would look 100% better without the roof/b-pillar.

I think that pillar is a compromise since it’s much harder to slide that part in with the roof
