Italdesign Touareg Concept - 2000

Giugiaro designed concept car based ( loosely )  on Jeep Wrangler with Mitshubishi 3.0 V6 engine... Few years later, VW stole the name... ;)

I saw a report earlier this week that VW may be purchasing a majority shareholder stake in ItalDesign. Maybe more of these gems are on the way!  :P

Sadly Otto you seem to be right, as tomorrow VW is set to announce that it is taking a controlling 90% stake in Ital Design, which is rather tragic news. 

Look what eventually happened to Ghia under Ford's control.  Let's hope the same fate does not await Ital Design!

Compare oranges with apples. Italdesign is a succesful company. Ghia wasn't as Ford took the lead!
