      I absolutely love that Athon though 🤤, the interior is very reminiscent of the Countach - I'll have to check when the prototype is from.

      I think rather it is an extremely accurate prediction of many of the new electric cars. Stuff a electric motor in and a very few adjustments on lights and interior and it's a 2025 model.

    I bought a concept car book that includes all of these. Seeing them in FMV is a lot more revealing.
    The Athon seems to devote so much of its engine-to-cockpit volume ratio to the former that it should be able to fly...it almost looks like a flattened, convertible van.
    The Pininfarina looks even sexier than the Scorpio, but it seems to have UI challenges, and it seem to demand that its occupants be good friends. The door really needs to be motorised.
    I had wanted a Stratos since I first saw it in orthogonal stills; it seems driver view may be seriously compromised. How wonderful they put a 17" touch display in it; brilliant!
    Love the silver upholstery in the Marzal. ("The future ain't what it used to be.") Even the dash and console are well-considered and artful!
    The Scorpio body is the very appealing...except for the exposed engine. And the cockpit seems almost primitive ("simple" is probably the description they'd use.)
    All things considered, I'd say I fancy the Pininfarina for myself (followed closely by the Stratos) or the Marzal when I need to bring the family, but every one of them has an ICE engine, and - maybe I've been in an EV too long - they all just sound somewhere between hokey and barbaric.
    And a special shout-out to José De Albuquerque Jr. for pointing out the '72 Maserati Boomerang is prominent in its absence. It looks a lot like a Vector, my dream car.

    I remember all of these cars in the early 80s when they first came out. I bought a magazine with all of these cars in it . Remember a Citroen with a sort of pyramid shaped roof and wedge look and a Lancia 4 door with a long sleep body.

    So geil. Das design so zeitlos futuristisch und dazu dieses Blubbern von aufgeladenen V12 Vergaser Motoren aus dem letzten Jahrtausend. Der Hammer.
    futuristic Design and the Sound of old engines, beautiful.

    These cars are pure art: they show mechanical engineering avantgarde and unique stylistic designes. 50 years ago dind't exist computer modelling and sophisticated equipment to model that shapes. Their function was (and is ) pure exhibition and experimentation of designers. Whoever does not understand this and criticizes non-useful solutions has lost from the start

    If I had to pick one, I would choose 1970 Lancia Stratos HF Zero Concept - GR 987 the one with glass wing doors and silver seats !
