Default Simpson Design Italia 2
I have to say I am really liking Simpsons new design. Hot stuff though not suitable for purists. Too bad it's for NB's only.

The bodywork pales in comparison to that hardtop. That is an incredible hardtop. Love love love it.

The new Italia is pretty good though. The front and rear overhangs seem shorter than the NA version.

There is something that bugs me about it. and I think it starts with the presence of flares on the fenders. the bodywork should be smooth and wider than the wheels.

I like the front and side of the car but I am really not liking the rear for some reason.

Needs better wheels, something that complements the design.

what a beautiful looking car...




And $10,000???

You could do a V8 swap with that...



That Ferrari is pure sex though...

I think some of the angles are too sharp for the overall body shape
