Touring Superleggeraa, the same company that made the Alfa 8C-based Disco Volante, has just targeted the mighty Ferrari F12 Berlinetta. The result is a stunning V12 supercar with classical looks and a paintjob that seems to evoque the Lake Como landscape.
The project bears the name "Berlinetta Lusso" and is being presented this week at the Geneva Motor Show, the perfect venue for it, if you ask us. With simplified lines and less radical design, the F12 closely resembles the 612 Scaglietti that came before it while still packing the latest tech.
Around the back, the Lusso has a completely new design that does away with the diffuser and the lip spoiler for the trunk. The taillights are still based on the older ones, but the graphics have been changed and their placement is lower.
The interior has remained largely the same, though the combination of dark blue and cream white makes us think of a maritime theme. All the Ferrari badges have also been removed.
An official video released by Touring Superleggera a few days ago suggests the Lusso has a deeper connection with the Ferrari brand, going all the way back to Carlo Anderloni-penned Ferrari 166 MM Touring.
There's no work on any power increases, but we've seen the F12 outsprint supercar royalty with its 740 horsepower 6.3-liter V12 engine. So 0 to 60 mph in 3 seconds may just prove to be enough for this Geneva-bound design masterpiece.
UPDATE: we're bringing you live photos from the floor of the Geneva Motor Show 2015 of this beautiful car in the metal, for the first time. Enjoy!
Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
