Angry Car Designer dreams up a Ferrari 612 GTO
Just about every time Ferrari comes up with a new variant of one of its supercars – be it the Scuderia, Spider, Challenge, XX or what-have-you – someone takes it upon themselves to imagine what another Prancing Horse from the stable would look like with the same treatment. Some come out looking better than others, but push comes to shove, there is no 458XX, no 599 Challenge and no California Scuderia. Once in a while, though, someone comes up with something truly intriguing.
In this case, that someone is Sasha Selipanov of Berlin, Germany, also known as the Angry Car Designer. Sasha's idea? The Ferrari 612 GTO. Only the thing is, these renderings don't depict what the Scaglietti would look like given the same treatment as the 599 GTO. No, this is something altogether more intriguing. More like a mix between the Aston Martin One-77 and the Ferrari 458 Italia, with a few elements from the original 250 GTO thrown in there for good measure. (Ferrari, Pininfarina? Are you paying attention for the 599's upcoming replacement?)
It's a design study, so there's little more left to discuss other than viewing the renderings for yourself, so check 'em out in the large gallery below. And if you like this, check out the source site, where Sasha's got some other intriguing designs on file. Most of them Ferraris, natch.

I've always thought Lambo and Ferrari were ridiculous for their model pilfering in mid-cycle. The Reventon for example. 1 mill for virtually a Murcielago with extra body panels. Don't see hot anyone could be dumb enough to buy it. Get a Murci and take to a custom shop if you want it to look different than others.
The 599 GTO is sweet...yes it is but throw a nice of wheels and a drop on a regular 599 and you get just about the same effect. You could mod the engine as well and save some coin.
We all know the bottom line. People who shop in the exotic hemisphere could care less about how much it costs. Companies know that and capitalize on it. That's the way it goes.

This rendering does look good though, the more i look at it the more i like it. It's side profile is really nice. maybe a little overdone in some areas, like the hood, maybe a couple too many scoops or vents, but it does look overall really good.
