timdjohn Posted December 21, 2007 Report Posted December 21, 2007 I ran across these pics. Do they look remotely familiar to you? This is a 1986 Ferrari 412. Sure the GP is more rounded and refined, but look at that front end, and the side profile. even the rims though typical Ferrari for the 80's but our cross laces are similar to the BMW's at least of the time. Anyhow it would not surprise me at all that one of the designers for Pontiac did not take some inspiration from the Ferrari 412. Quote
AWeb80 Posted December 21, 2007 Report Posted December 21, 2007 Good Eye. The Gp's Designers Did Better Than Ferarri did. Quote
Q-Ball Posted December 22, 2007 Report Posted December 22, 2007 Could clone the 88-90's to a ferarri! But quite similar. Neat find! Quote
jeremy Posted December 23, 2007 Report Posted December 23, 2007 I actually think that Ferrari could be pretty sweet with the right set of wheels.... Quote

timdjohn Posted December 23, 2007 Author Report Posted December 23, 2007 I actually think that Ferrari could be pretty sweet with the right set of wheels.... OMG! is just so strange to me to hear someone say that. In the 80's the Ferrari rims were the ones everyone imitated. Them and Porsche rims. Quote

Addicted To Boost Posted December 23, 2007 Report Posted December 23, 2007 I remember watching Barrett-Jackson on Speed last winter and seeing some 1986 Ferrari on it that looked pretty similar to a 89-93 GP with the B4U bodywork on it.. made me do a double-take! Looked pretty cool. That first pic looks like a base model 88-89 GP- it even has the same looking wheels as the base model! Quote
