Holiday Weekend Car Porn: A BMW, As Unobtainable As A Penthouse Pet
In case you did not get your tickets to the 2012 Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este, held at the Lake Como in Italy, or if you did not want to trade barbecue for bietole, there is a monster gallery of the Zagato Coupe after the jump.
Zagato is the only automotive body manufacturer still in independent ownership. The car is a one-off, but it is reassuring to know that it is street-legal.
Neither motor nor money were mentioned.
If you want to know more, the press release in all its wordiness can be found here.

It ain't ugly and it ain't pretty, but, it is wrinkled. The Honda Accord of designer sports cars.
Looks pretty good to me, and a lot better than any current or recent vintage BMW. Reminded me of the Shelby Daytona: http://www.sportscardigest.com/wp-content/uploads/1965-shelby-daytona-cobra-coupe-csx2601.jpg
