Bertone

Designed back in 1967 for the London Motor Show, the Bertone Pirana (also known as the Jaguar Pirana) was gorgeous 2+2 coupe that started out as a Jaguar E-Type. The car was designed to show that Bertone could match the offerings of Lamborghini, Aston Martin, Ferrari and Maserati.

Revealed at the 1969 Turin Motor Show, Bertone showed off this wild ride which looks a bit like what might have happened if Speed Racer’s Mach 5 mated with a powerboat. The car was designed by Marcello Gandini, and was powered by mid- mounted 1.1L Fiat 128 engine and matching 4-speed gearbox.

Designed by Bertone’s Marcello Gandini, the Lamborghini Marzal offered a dramatic and futuristic look, with gull-wing doors, and its naturally-illuminated cabin. Its chassis started out as a Lamborghini Miura, but with an extended wheelbase so it could seat four.

Of all of the Alfa Romeos ever made, I have to say I think the original GTV was the best looking. It might not have had the performance chops of Alfa’s best cars, but it sure was pretty.

One of the sexiest cars ever made is the Lamborghini Miura. The world’s first look at the exotic pictured here came at the 1971 Geneva Motor Show, and now Lamborghini PoloStorico has restored the very car that was on display at that show.
