Fiat 500 with a Ferrari engine;

And yet! The design house Lazzarini presented his new project, which is based on its body Fiat 500, but its power will come from a V8 engine Ferrari.
Lazzarini Design presented its new project named 550 Italia, based on the Fiat platform 500 with too many modifications. Apart from the excessive aero aids and giant spoiler, the most important element that distinguishes the "beast" is the Ferrari V8 engine mounted in the rear. The performance of the 4.5 liter engine touches them 550 horsepower, however, according to the breeding house, reduced power by 20 horsepower (since her motor 458 Italia delivers 570 horsepower) for better traction (!).

For now, the Lazzarini company is looking for investors willing to spend 437.000 euros in order for the specific project to proceed to the production of minimums, of course, "super units".
