One-Of-A-Kind Ferrari Casually Parked In Swiss Garage

Geneva Motor Show: One-Of-A-Kind Ferrari Casually Parked In Swiss Garage

This is something you’ll see only in Geneva, or perhaps Italy (where the car is registered): the one-of-a-kind Ferrari GG50, a special design that Giorgetto Giugiaro gave to himself on the company’s 50th anniversary in 2005. It’s based on the Ferrari 612 Scaglietti (although slightly shorter) and retains the same mechanical bits and pieces.

To find this car sitting in a parking lot is a little like finding Heidi Klum sitting in the waiting room at your dentist’s office. Sure, it could happen, but it’s near impossible that the stars would align (or that we would actually remember to schedule our six-month checkup, but that’s a different story). We saw the car after sitting in our idling Saab 9-5, waiting to exit the Geneva Motor Show last night. We loved how used it looked–replete with splattered road mud. Notice how the well-over-a-million-dollar Ferrari wasn’t even double parked.

We never got a peek at the driver, but was it Giugiaro himself?
