2005 Bizzarrini GTS 4.4

Of the most recent plans to resurrect the Bizzarrini name is this one-of displayed at the 2005 Geneva Motor Show. VGM Motors, who have already constructed a Bizzarrini P538 replica, have made this GTS as a modern interpretation of the 5300 GT, which was Bizzarrini’s most prolific model.

Hopefully this GTS marks the return of Bizzarini despite several modest attempts in the eighties and nineties. On a more positive note, the Alpina-Tuned BMW engine, which the car is based upon, has already met emissions standards to be driven in Europe.
