Ferrari 575GTZ (Zagato)

In 2006 Ferrari commissioned Italian styling firm Zagato to produce a dramatically re-styled one-off model of their flagship at the time, the V12 575M Maranello, for an esteemed customer in Japan.

The body was completely redesigned to evoke the 250GTZ, a handful of Ferrari 250s modified by Zagato in the 1950s, pictured bottom. It also seemed to set Ferrari's new design principle for their following GT cars, the 599 and smaller 612 Scaglietti.




Ferrari 250GT Zagato on which the 575GTZ's design is based:
