Remember me?

this is the 2000 Lada (VAZ) Roadster by Sbarro.

Iīve filed another official pic of the Lada Peter Rodster (sic!) that seems to have been the basis for this Sbarro project:

When did this get moved to the Experts section? I never realised it was there, I've known this car for years. But can I ask where you have found information indicating that this is a Sbarro project? It is not mentioned on his website, and I've never heard anything about other involvement than Lada itself before.

Thatīs why I thought it is a Sbarro design:

Also, from AutoSoviet.com:

Above, we can see an interesting prototype presented at the Moscow Show 2000 (and also the Geneve Show): the  Lada "Roadster", designed with the help of the famous Swiss designer Franco Sbarro, and equipped with a 2000 16V engine, 150 cv. It has an electric roof similar to the Mercedes SLK or Peugeot 206 CC. The design, although shaped and square, is pleasant.
