Aston Martin V12 Zagato

    I don't think the Aston Martin V12 Zagato is fugly, or even ugly.  But it does look a bit chubby for an Aston - less sleek and more bulbous.  I suppose it's kind of attractive the way a plus size model is, when compared to non-plus size models.

    But the most unsettling thing about the design is how similar it looks to a Nissan GTR in the side view.  Sure, the rearmost angle of the side windows goes the opposite direction, but the air intake and blacked out "helmet visor" appearance of the A-pillar bear more than a passing resemblance.

Zagato Autech Stelvio



    Zagato is at it again! Some of you may be wondering what the hell an Autech Stelvio is in the first place. I know I was... Apparently, Autech was a special tuning division of Nissan in the late 80's, and the Stelvio is basically a Leopard coupe rebodied by Zagato. The strangely bulging front fenders house rear view mirrors. But then again I suppose it was the 80's - pretty much everything was weird back then.

Ferrari 330 GTC Zagato


    Apparently it's "Rag on Ferrari Day". I suppose maybe this car was ahead of it's time being that it's from 1967 and it looks like bad kit car for a late 80's Renault Alpine. Still though - wouldn't you rather have an au-natural 330 GTC?
