Lightbulb ITALDesign

As a designer, I love cars as much for their look as for the grunt. This network is proof that I'm not alone. So I decided to peruse my many car books to check out some of the siblings to the SVX, that ITALDesign and/or Giugiaro worked on. I was impressed with our little Suby's bloodline. Here's a partial list:

- SAAB 9000
- Maserati Ghibli
- Gordon Keeble
- DeLorean DMC-12
- BMW M1
- Alfa Romeo Alfetta
- Lotus Espirit

Some of you might know these already, but I found it interesting. Each of these cars is considered a significant bit in automotive design history. Fo example, the BMW M1 is considered by many to be one of the finest GT cars ever built, giving 30mpg with almost 200mph perfomance...
James Bond drove an Espirit (that turned into a cool submarine) in The Spy Who Loved Me. And we all know DeLorean's claim to fame.
Google the names and check them out. Thats my rant for now, hope you enjoy.
