Zagato not able to make a flat roofed car. They even did those stupid roof humps on the Aston Martin v8 Vantage Zagato

Not an easy design but they have one just like this in the Copenhagen dealer currently.
Looks amazing and so much to look at and that V12 as well.

Jeez, that's ugly. Not that it matters, because I don't have £800K to spend on a car.

A Ferrari FF is a million times better looking than this monstrosity, and the Ferrari FF is not a great looking car.

LHD so unlikely.

Edit: The pink one is now in private ownership in Japan, instagram @kenchan5560 if your eyes can take it.

I'd take a GTC4 Lusso over one of these any day (the newer model to the FF).

I can't afford it, but I'd never buy it even if I could. I'm not a fan of that rear end.

Imagine getting a ding in that rear quarter panel... I bet Eurocar parts don't have a spare pattern part on the shelf.

The most offensive thing for me is the vauge attempt at the bling with the gold trim and wheels. Totally unnecessary and really cheapens the look for me. I actually like the form and shape, but the fussy / blingy details are rather tasteless for me.

Normally, companies develop kits to make lesser cars look like exotics.

But Zagato have achieved the unthinkable - they've turned an exotic car into a Hyundai Veloster

Isn't that what insurance is for? Or, someone with a spare £825k to splash on a car could probably afford a new panel, at a guess, if the situation called for it.

I think it looks OK-ish from the front, bar the round lights at the bottom which I don't think gel with the design, but the rear is shocking and far too fussy in my opinion.

A deeply horrible and lumpen excrescence.
