thanks for the lock Carnut.

to my eyes it looked Fiat Coupe-ish, so I followed that thread, not sure that I've found it though.  Is it an early 90's (1990/1) Fiat Coupe prototype by Pininfarina?  I've read that they were going to design the production model, but in the end only designed it's interior.  The final design being led by Chris Bangle at Fiat

It is a proposal for the Fiat Coupé, yes, but whether it's by Pininfarina or not I don't know; I thought it was by Chris Bangle although must admit it looks far more like other contemporary Pininfarina designs than other Bangle efforts.

I'll give you your point and move this one tomorrow, but in the meantime if anyone can come up with proof that it is PF's effort to do the exterior as well as the interior then they can earn a point for that too!
