Designer Envisions a Ferrari 458 Italia Replacement with New FT12 Concept


Automotive designers, be that professional or amateur, tend to be a restless breed of people, always thinking of the next project. It comes with the territory, of course.

After sharing his vision for a next generation Ferrari Spider model with a concept featuring a two-seat layout and a mid-mounted engine, Aldo Schurmann returns this year with a fresh design study for a Ferrari 458 replacement that he has named the F12T.

Ferrari Getto Design Study is Part Hypercar, Part Racing Simulator


We all think we could be car designers and do a much better job than the actual people who do it for a living, and while there may be some good ideas scattered here and there, not all ideas are great.

This imaginary Ferrari concept for 2025 is one of the better ideas, as it intends to incorporate elements of racing simulators into the construction of its frame and cockpit.

Called the Getto (it's Italian for "jet", we're told), it is the result of many late nights spent by designer Christophe Jourd'hui getting the design and functionality of the car just right and keeping things feasible and realistic, even with the technology we have in 2013.

Ferrari Tensostruttura is a LaFerrari Development Prototype From Two Years go


If you think the LaFerrari looks good in its production form, wait 'till you see what they were doing two years ago. The Tensostruttura concept is one of only two 1:1 scale models, built to explore the design of the then-future LaFerrari. This is merely a rolling concept, and one out of nine possible design directions for the car. Read more »

Pininfarina Honors Late Company Boss with Ferrari 458 Spider-Based Sergio Barchetta


Famous Italian design house Pininfarina is paying tribute to its former chairman, Sergio Pininfarina, who passed away last July, with a new concept car that bears his name and which it says, "renews the spirit and values" obtained under his leadership "projecting them into the future".

The Pinifarina Sergio is a barchetta-style concept study built on top of the Ferrari 458 Spider underpinnings, with both the wheelbase and the tracks remaining intact.

Ferrari Xezri Design Concept Sports Up and Wears its Competizione Costume


The Ferrari F40 had one, as did James Glickenhaus's P4/5 coach built special, so why shouldn't Samir Sadikhov's award winning Xezri supercar design concept gain a Competizione Edition as well?

Along with the Cadillac C-Ville study that we showed you earlier this week, Sadikhov emailed us his vision of the Xezri Competizione Edition, which is the track-only racing version of his conceptual mid-engined supercar that finished in second place at the 2011 Ferrari World Design Contest.

Take a Look at this Ferrari Quattroporte Design Concept


Automotive designer Alex Imnadze, whose name might not ring a bell right away, but you may remember him from one of his concepts for a Lamborghini supercar that we showed you earlier this month, sent us his latest project for a Ferrari super saloon.

Unlike the Lamborghini coupe study, Imnadze's new Ferrari concept has a name; it's called the Quattroporte, though, as you can imagine, this wouldn't sit well with the Fiat Group's other supercar-maker, Maserati

Designer Thinks Out of the Box with Ferrari Elevated Grand Tourer Study


Most of you will probably agree that, if there is one category of vehicles a supercar maker of the likes of Ferrari ought to stay away from, it is the SUV / crossover segment.

Designers, of course, are free to imagine anything without the usual constraints that come with production models. Enter the world of Li Cheng Hsu, an aspiring student at the Art Center College of Design in California.

Ferrari Collector Convinces Maranello to Build Him a One-of-a-Kind 599 GTO Coupe


As far as hobbies go, collecting V12-engined Ferraris certainly beats golf or fly-fishing – provided, of course, that you have the means. Cheerag Arya, or CA as he prefers to be called, is one of the lucky few.

CA, who was born in India, has spent much of his time in the US and for the last six years live in Dubai where he has established a new manufacturing plant at Ras al Khaimah, one of the seven states that constitute the United Arab Emirates.

A Video Walkaround of James Glickenhaus' One-Off P4/5 Competizione


The racing version of Jim Glickenhaus' one-off, Ferrari-powered and Pininfarina-designed, P4/5 Competizione is an amazing car for more reasons than one.

However, the fact that it recently set a world record for any Ferrari-powered sports car on the Nürburgring Nordschleife at 6 minutes and 51 seconds beating the 700-horsepower Ferrari 599XX's 2010 lap time of 6:58 should be considered its greatest accomplishment.

U Spot: Notice Anything Different About this Ferrari…GT Aperta?


Carscoop reader Jonathan Y. emailed us these pictures of a Ferrari SA Aperta with a few styling twists that he snapped in Switzerland.

Jonathan tells us that the Italian roadster looked original but featured some differences over the regular model including a 'GT Aperta' logo finished in black at the rear end of the car.

Revealed at the 2010 Paris Motor Show, the standard SA Aperta is a roadster version of the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano equipped with the 599 GTO coupe's more potent 6.0-liter V12 producing an output of 661hp (670PS) and a peak torque of 620Nm (457 lb-ft).

Ferrari 365 Turin Design Study


In the realm of digital renderings, a concept model doesn't necessarily have to replace an existing or even an older model from an automaker's lineup.

The 365 Turin is a design study for a new Ferrari supercar created by independent designer David Williams from Sydney, Australia.

Designer Envisions the Upcoming Ferrari F70 Supercar


You have probably seen our most recent scoop pictures of the prototypes of Ferrari's Enzo replacement undergoing tests in Europe, but what could the actual production version look like when the new model, reportedly named the F70, hits showrooms in late 2013?

For now, this is a question that will likely remain mercifully answered, but we have an interesting design study for the Ferrari F70 that was penned by industrial designer and current employee of Pininfarina's German subsidiary in Rüsselsheim, Constantin-Gabriel Radu.

The concept borrows elements from both the Ferrari 458 Italia as well as the previous Enzo, combining curves with hard creases and a teardrop glasshouse. If this design were to be produced, we would imagine that the car would obtain more air vents both on the sides and more importantly, on the rear end.
