I agree that the Japanese have little automotive heritage, but the Europeans have MORE than the Americans. Remember the original Mustang in 1964 was marketed as having "European flair."

 

Anyone here know how to pronounce "Giugiarro"?

 

My best description would be ji-jar-o. I think I heard him say it in an interview a while back.

 

 

A friend of my gave me this brochure of the "Mustang by Giugiaro" he found at the car show in Amsterdam (RAI).

Thanks for the brochure post, It finally explained why I thought I was seeing two calipers on the rear wheels.

 

 

geebus that thing is ugly

 

I LOVE the projector beams...they are coolio.

 

I was at the Goodwood Festival of Speed so it was great to finally see this car in the metal. I have to say it looks sooooooooooooo much better in person. It was parked up next to a GT500 and it made that car seem a little dull!

If one aspect makes it onto the next generation Mustang, I hope it's those Coke bottle hips......they're gorgeous.

 

Looks to narrow.................it seems to lose that muscle car look on the track to me!! My $0.02

 

 

THAT
BACK
IS
JUST
PLAIN
UGLY

 

That is one huge piece of glass on that thing. Could you imagine if you cracked it and had to get it replaced. Ouch!!!!

"Hi insurance, yeah, my windshield-roof-rearwindow glass needs to be replaced on my Guigario Mustang... What do you mean you won't cover the $2000 replacement cost!"

 

 

I did a photoshop of the original Guigaro Concept awhile back to make it a bit more aggressive...more American Muscle Car than pure Euro-Car (which I think is basically very cool, by the way). Note clipped "eye-brows" on headlights, Cobra R hood and larger grill opening. Wonder what you thought?

 

Some more hips...

 

I agree.

The front end looks more like a Camero than a Stang.

And if I wanted Euro lines, I'd buy a Euro (or a Japanese copy of a Euro).

 

Dude - you got that photoshop down! Saw some of your other mods. Good work!

 

Thanks. Hey, maybe Ford will build something like it. We'll see. Wouldn't mind seeing some variation on the Shelby GT500 front-end for the masses either.
