Late last week some drawings made their way onto the interwebz thanks to the Chinese patent office. According to early sources, it was speculated to be a Ferrari F12 GTO. A bit early in the game, they got burned.
In reality it is a one-off being built for an Indian client with particular taste.
From what we can tell, it seems to be a coach-built F12 that has some really interesting modifications to it. Take, for example, the all-new front valence with larger venting and note the all-new hood with channels to send air around the vehicle in a more efficient manner. In addition, it appears that the winglets located behind the rear 3/4 window take inspiration from the 599 XX and the side sills that appear to have a wing-like design may be taking some creative and functional license from the all-new 458 Speciale.
One of the more peculiar additions, at least to me, are the louvers over the back end of the vehicle. If this is based off the F12, it's certainly not a mid-engined vehicle and the top doesn't appear to come off.
So, what the hell's going on there?
What say you, Spies? Are you digging this one-off or would you pass?
