  1. According to reliable sources, Alexandre, both the Sciadipersia and the Disco Volante have sold over a million units, and each one is unique.
    I'm crazy about these 2 models (as are the 8C and the Granturismo).
    This isn't the first time a car brand has called on a major coachbuilder to create their models. It happens all the time, and even for models

  2. The bodywork of these models is entirely handcrafted by highly-skilled boilermakers, and of course the interior is also made by expert hands using noble materials. The price is not surprising, given the low production run and the hours of work required... Touring has a long and prestigious history of production for Italian manufacturers, but also for others such as Aston Martin, for whom Touring designed and built the famous DB5...

  3. The flying disco was not a success with its bowl-like design, and I'm not even talking about the monstrosity based on the magnificent Granturismo.
