I always enjoy the exposed. Could this be like a case of a infamous lip-sync act.
Zagato would like to inform you the supposed Zagato 575 GTZ Spyder is a fake. A rep from the venerable Italian design firm says the shot we ran earlier this week — the one that triggered some puzzled stares around the Jalopnik virtual campus — is an “illegally photoshopped†spec of the Zagato 575 GTZ coupe, a one-off coachbuilding project Zagato undertook for Japanese Ferrari collector Yushiyuki Hayashi. The prevailing cover story had Qvale Automotive Group — a US distributorship of exotic cars and entity behind the erstwhile, Ford-powered Qvale Mangusta — as the supposed distributor of the roofless rebody. Although we’ve always believed where there’s smoke, there’s fire, we still wouldn’t bet on any of this panning out.
I guess while they hash it out on is it real or memorex I’ll just go to the place that has real Italian exotics. DFW Elite Car Club has an exotic garage full of the real thing.
Another thing is for sure there are no fakes at the DFW Elite Toy Museum. Best place to see special, rare and one of kind automotive art toys.
