Red 4.2 GT with Black roof

[BennyD]

IMO, paint lines that cross a panel (not on a swage line) is just wrong. Perhaps he/she realised that red/red was too much and wanted a contrast to break it up a bit and came up with a way to ruin the car which, I have to say, worked really well.

I reckon they were trying to recreate something like this...

That colour scheme works really well on an Alfa SZ as it's angular. Similarly, I did something along those lines with my Stratos replica. On the flowing lines of the GT, there's the problem of where literally, to draw the line? It just doesn't work on the Maserati, IMO.

Oh, and Benny, my paint scheme crosses panel lines and works really well.

Agree...looks right on that style/model...and of its time

Agreed, but yours isn't trying to blend swage lines, panel edges and panel gaps like they are on the GT. Also, what works on a Rally car doesn't always work well on a £100k Gt car!

Always liked the Alfa. For years there was a red one parked just off Park Lane. Always worth a drive by.

For me it looks like a cheep rip ofF of the 599 GTO

It might have been done as a promotions car I have seem cars like this before....on stands at motor shows etc.

Who were they trying to promote it to? Stevie Wonder??

 

[conaero]

Ha ha, you know what they are like at these Max Power events. Do we know if its a wrap or actually painted that way.

My guess it was black with red leather and then the red has been applied to the exterior aftermarket....then again, it would make sense to do it the other way round, just can see anyone ordering red with red, Stevie Wonder exempt of course.

 

[MAF260]

There was a member on MF who had a red/red GT - SleeperSy? Actually looked OK in the pics.

[dem maser]

I dont like it, i like the white and the black but not together......

 

[dem maser]

I would bet that it was black then got the white wrap for the csr but leaving the roof.....
Its the interior that gives it away, would you but white with light interior?? Most wouldnt......
