This year's Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este starts next weekend, and since BMW is the main sponsor of this fantastic event, it's no wonder they came up with their own star again. This time, with the help of Pininfarina. Meet the V12-powered BMW Gran Lusso Coupé.

Four years after Bertone showed the world what they can do with an Autobianchi A112 and a bit of sheet metal, competing coachbuilder Pininfarina came up with this: the 1973 A112 Giovani. That means youth in English.

A few days ago we asked you about the details of the new LaFerrari. Now, it's time to take another look at its predecessor. Some say the words "beautiful" and "Enzo" should not be in the same sentence. I believe it only takes time to see the genius in Pininfarina's design.

Forget the LaFerrari – the Pininfarina Sergio is be the best Ferrari you'll see today.

This week at the Geneva Motor Show, famed Italian design house Pininfarina will debut a one-off concept car that should look very striking in person. They're calling it the Sergio.

Last week, the automotive world lost one of its best and brightest minds as Sergio Pininfarina died in Turin, Italy at the age of 85.

Legendary automaker De Tomaso, which was recently for sale after a resurrection effort went totally awry, has now fallen into even more trouble.

It's been a busy year for passing automotive legends. Not long after the passing of Ferdinand Alexander Porsche and Carroll Shelby, Sergio Pininfarina, a man known for brilliant coach design over the past five decades, died in Torino at the age of 85 on Tuesday.

When we heard the latest offering from beloved-but-never-great Italian automaker was relaunching with a crossover we said they'd be "better off dead." Looks like we got our wish. The automaker is in the process of liquidation and looking for partners.
