Pininfarina Ethos?

1992 Styling concept, no?

@re · « **Reply #2 on:** October 07, 2008, 07:50:18 AM »

Not Pininfarina, and not 1992.

Made in 1990 - 2000 ?

Was it made by famous design studio or by Italian manufacturer?

@re · « **Reply #10 on:** October 07, 2008, 04:32:49 PM »

That is a question that I'm not sure that I can answer, but if I had to choose between one of those two options, I would lean towards the second alternative.

Don't have my books at hand, so I'm just guessing:

Fioravanti or Coggiola?

Second guess would be I.DE.A or even more oscure?

@re · « **Reply #12 on:** October 07, 2008, 07:47:08 PM »

Not Fioravanti, not Coggiola, and not I.DE.A.

It's not really obscure at all, the problem is that it's only half-official...

Ive got pictures of this at home. Will have to go lookup what its called.
Ive definitely seen it before.

Correct! This one lasted quite a bit longer than I expected it to.

I know, I really like the green design better.

Agree! Plus, it evolved into this, the Ferrari F90 special built by Pininfarina for a certain Sultan of Brunei:

Thank you for the extra info. I kept seeing Ferrari in the headlights of the green Pininfarina design, but could not put my finger on why.

Your extra info put it together for me.
