World Premiere: Ferrari GG50
Italdesign unveiled Tuesday its tribute to Giorgetto Giugiaro's 50
years in automotive design, the Ferrari GG50. Based on the Ferrari 612 Scaglietti, the 2+2 GG50 features shorter front
and rear overhangs, a photochromic roof, folding rear seats, and a true hatchback rear lid.
The car was unveiled at Bridgestone's Headquarters in Tokyo. The GG50 will be the centerpiece of Bridgestone's display
area at the Tokyo Motor Show.

From the side it looks like a Pontiac and a Corvette had a bastard child.

Ferrari's got some lovely automobiles, but this ain't one of them. The side view looks awful Corvette-y. The headlights...yeah. Not so much.

does anyone else think the headlights resemble the headlights from that concept Nissan Skyline a few years back?

For a Ferrari....this is bad! It looks like a fish from a PIXAR film. Ferrari go back to your ROOTS. RGP

Ugh, it's like a Corvette, a Gallardo, an RX-8 and a maserati coupe all had an orgy, and their offspring inbred for about 50 years. What an abomination.

I guess Ferrari's really sticking the Scaglietti look, which I don't really have too many issues with... but the sides are just un-Ferrari, and that's just taking away too much.

It looks like a Ferrari, Corvette, and all the current generation TVR's got into a car wreck...

A very "Giugiaro-ish" design. Look for the C-pillar to show up on a Hyundai/Kia/Lexus in 3 or 4 years.

I agree. The headlights appear to be taken from some Cadillac or bad GM product of some sort. Otherwise a very nice looking shape

Curious that Giugiaro would do a Ferrari when Pinifarina has been the Prancing Horse's design studio almost exclusively as long as Ferrari has been around.
It's not pretty, but it's also a lot better-looking than the 612 Scaglietti.
