This is the second concept in a row that uses stock O.Z. wheels. The Giugiaro Mustang used the O.Z. Palladio, and this one uses the O.Z. Botticelli.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sean Flanagan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 22nd 2008 12:10PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/22/geneva-08-preview-giugiaro-teases-with-new-concept-car/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/22/geneva-08-preview-giugiaro-teases-with-new-concept-car/</guid><description><![CDATA[It bothers me even more when someone designs a new car and puts ridiculously ugly "modern" wheels on when something tried and true would be much more fitting.  Don't get me wrong, wheel design can be improved upon, but it's not often that it actually is.<br><br>P.S.  I really dig the wheel choice on the new concept.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Andrew]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 22nd 2008 12:19PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/22/geneva-08-preview-giugiaro-teases-with-new-concept-car/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/22/geneva-08-preview-giugiaro-teases-with-new-concept-car/</guid><description><![CDATA[I can think of a lot better looking stuff Giugiaro has done besides that Mustang. Original Lotus Esprit anyone?<br><br>The new concept looks interesting. Seems like they could do something a bit better with the wheels, but I prefer them over the usually ugly "futuristic" 22-inch wheels that every designer seems to make a prerequisite on their designs these days.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mblommel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 22nd 2008 1:03PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/22/geneva-08-preview-giugiaro-teases-with-new-concept-car/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/22/geneva-08-preview-giugiaro-teases-with-new-concept-car/</guid><description><![CDATA["..anta". Given that this concept was done to commemorate Ital Design's 40th Anniversary, this new concept is probably an homage to one of Guigiaro's first; the Bizzarini Manta. The front and rear tease shots seem very evocative of that car.<br><br>Here's a pic for reference: <a href="http://www.lotusespritturbo.com/Bizzarrini_Manta_Thum.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://www.lotusespritturbo.com/Bizzarrini_Manta_Thum.jpg</a>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[charmingDeviant]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 22nd 2008 1:04PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/22/geneva-08-preview-giugiaro-teases-with-new-concept-car/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/22/geneva-08-preview-giugiaro-teases-with-new-concept-car/</guid><description><![CDATA[The Bizzarrini Manta was THE first-ever Ital Design car. Up until then, Giorgetto Giugiaro had worked for Bertone and Ghia. At one of 1968's major European auto shows (Either Turin or Frankfurt, I'm not sure), it marked the debut of the Ital Design company.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jruhi4]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 22nd 2008 1:38PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/22/geneva-08-preview-giugiaro-teases-with-new-concept-car/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/22/geneva-08-preview-giugiaro-teases-with-new-concept-car/</guid><description><![CDATA[As much as I would love the Manta reference, the spacing just doesn't seem right, as the name would only take the right part of the bumper.
