The original of this car is lost.  For one point, name the original year, make, model, and coachbuilder of the car.

Does the grill look familiar?

This looks like the 1948 Ferrari 166MM Zagato "Panoramica" - Ferrari's first coupe.
I would also guess the 1947 Maserati A6 1500 Pininfarina/Zagato, but I don't see the characteristic Maserati central grille bar.

It is in fact, the Ferrari.  Point for you.

It seems Zagato is recreating various "lost" cars that they consider significant.

Thank you for your complete reply.  I wasn't aware that this was Ferrari's first coupe.

Because it is not... the first Ferrari coupé is 166S #003S by Allemano...

These recreation cars by Zagato are called "Sanction II"

Maybe the real solution of this puzzle should be "2013 Ferrari 166 MM Zagato Sanction II"...  ;)
