    It might not be a Ferrari, but it looks a helluva lot better than anything GM usually makes.

    Hey, remember that time you posted a huge diagram that showed who owned who?


    By following the lines GM actually owns Ferrari. So... This guy is onto something

    Funny this should come up. I was looking through my autoshow pics the other day with my sister, and when a Lambo Superleggera came up she asked if it was a Saturn. her justification was that "I don't know, maybe they have a sporty division". Very sporty indeed.

    @Clockwork: If Saturn had a sporty division with cars that even remotely resembled a Lambo, they might still be in business today.

    Okay, so there might not be much pride in a Saturn badge, but the only people who would give you shit about it, know that it's a Saturn, regardless of the badge. And everyone knows that it's not a Ferrari, whether they know what it is or not.


    If you like the car, but hate the brand image that much, you can rebadge it as a Vauxhall or an Opel.


    Even a non-enthusiast knows that that car isn't a Ferrari. They wouldn't know that it's not an Opel GT or a Vauxhall VX220.


    And a true enthusiast would grant you some leeway for rebadging it into something that it actually is, but isn't.

    @Flathead Smith: You know, the worst part is that I think those things attract deer. The only time I hit a deer, was in my old truck that had a pair of those (my dad gave me the truck when I was in college, and he swore by them, because he never hit a deer in DOWNTOWN BUFFALO. Dumbass).

    Wrong again Jalopnik... this is the Ferrari 230 Sxxy concept unveiled in Maranello at the recent auction.


    Bidding was up to $3MM but the vehicle was retracted as it did not meet the reserve.


    The model is denoted by the dualing prancing horses at the front end... or Dos Caballistastas as they are known in parts of Costa Mesa, CA (Ferrari's home away from home-where the 230 Sxxy was designed).
