Spada Codatronca promotional material -- Click above to watch the video after the break
The Spada is coming! The Spada is coming! Along with this promotional video put together to get you ready for it. A combination of The Dark Knight, Speed Racer, and The Car, the Codatronca's still an oddball looker, but with that Z06 running gear underneath it should at least be fun to drive. The vid was directed by a Mr. Kobayashi, which makes us think that Keyser Soze must be doing the driving. Follow the jump to watch the vid.

This car is stealth and impervious to radar! Says me.

it's amazing that they actually pay some people to design cars.

Aw how cute. The Vette dressed up as Batman for Halloween.
Overall I like it. It's good looking in an ugly way. ;)

Is that a speedometer on the tail of the car? Who needs radar!

think of it as a middle finger to whoever is trying to keep up.

thats exactly what I was wondering! My gf pitched a very similar idea years back as a safety measure and I said it would never ever happen, who would want to potentially incriminate themself? It's only in the concept photo and not the latest pics so its probably been dropped since

Yes I know this is either a love it or hate it car....
I love it! Why not? If I had lots of money burning a hole in my pocket and wanted something new/Italian design/american heart/ plain crazy I'd already have one in my underground garage next to my Zonda and Jim's p4/5.
I'd drive daily the Quattroporte upholding a professional mild mannered image, and then cut loose on the weekends with this fire-breathing, sweat inducing, abdominal crunching monster of a car.

As the owner of a Z06 -- it really hurts to see this creation. The front is hard to like but I can let it slide, the rear needs to be set on fire though.
The only redeeming thing is SOME of the interior elements, seats and some paneling. It is hilarious though to see the stock vette deck amidst the whole thing though.
Wtf were they thinking with that little antenna poking offset on the top?

It means "fastback" and if I well remember, it was used by some Alfa Romeo by Zagato bodybuilding in the 60s.

"This is the Codatronca"
the hell is a codatronca?

larry raines 7:33PM (10/21/2009)
it means that it has a chopped off rear
"the TZ used a style called "coda tronca" in Italian, meaning "short tail.", "
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfa_Romeo_Giulia_TZ
American refrence: the Shelby Daytona is also a coda tronca

Now here is a good looking supercar. I was wondering where all the designers went after seeing the awful LFA and 458. An amazing shape that suits the Corvette chassis well
