As reported by GT Spirit, the McQueen' Ferrari originally had a distinctive metallic gold color called 'Nocciola,' but the actor asked for the paint to be changed to 'Chianti Red' while the car with chassis number #10621 would be sent to him. McQueen also replaced the original GTB/4 wheels with Borrani spoke wheels, which were taken from the 275 GTB NART Spider he had previously.

After McQueen, this Ferrari has undergone many ownership changes from a number of well-known Ferrari collectors. The last owner bought the McQueen's Ferrari in 2010, and did a full restoration and returned the car to the original specifications as it first owned by Steve McQueen. In 2013, the Ferrari GTB/4 was exhibited at the Museo Ferrari as part of the history of the Italian automaker associated with Hollywood.
The car with the California's plate number of WCT 710 was then auctioned off by RM Auctions in Monterey in 2014 and reportedly managed to sell for more than US $10 million, however the transaction was not as interesting as the story of the Hollywood legend. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | TRADEUNIQUECARS | TOPGEAR | RMAUCTION ]

Congrats..! The presence of electric-powered vehicles gives its own color to the automotive world. In the UK for example, in the next 2023 it is estimated that there will be a new production of hydrogen-powered hypercars. Due to recently, a British technology start-up named Viritech is presented a hydrogen-powered hypercar is mentioned to be carrying the latest technology.
Here's a hydrogen-powered super car that has a maximum power of 1,000 horsepower named the Viritech Apricale. (Picture from: TopGear)
As reported by Carbuzz, Viritech is preparing a hydrogen-powered super car that has a maximum power of 1,000 horsepower called the Viritech Apricale. According to the automaker, the name originating from the Latin word 'Apricus,' meaning touched by the sun (consisting of hydrogen).
The Viritech Apricale will serve as a show car to demonstrate the performance and superiority of the hydrogen technology developed by Viritech. (Picture from: Viritech)
Although, the Viritech didn't announcing detailed specifications yet, however the company claimed the super hydrogen car will be able to reach speeds of more than 321 kilometers per hour. Furthermore, the company said that the Apricale hypercar will also offer exclusivity to its owner, due to the Viritech will only produce 25 units for the global market. So, it could be said, we would be saw less the Viritech Apricale on the street in the future.
The
Viritech Apricale will carry a hydrogen tank made of the reinforced
graphene material, and become an integral part of the chassis structure. (Picture from: Hotcars)
In making the Apricale super hydrogen car, Viritech is collaborated with Horiba Mira, the center for the development of the automotive industry in the UK. Thanks to this collaboration, Viritech can freely utilize all existing facilities at the Horiba Mira research and production facility, Technology Park Nuneaton, England.
"Collaborating with Horiba Mira is a big step for Viritech. This collaboration has been able to elevate us to a major automotive player in the production facilities perspective. This means we will be able to do anything for the automotive industry," said Timothy Lyons, CEO and Founder of Viritech.
The Viritech Apricale will set to become the world's first hydrogen production hypercar. (Picture from: Motor1)
Besides wanting to prove the superiority of hydrogen technology, Viritech turned out to have a special mission in making the Viritech Apricale. Viritech uses Apricale to prove their ability as the world's leading company in hydrogen engineering and powetrain systems solutions.
The Viritech Apricale will launched in 2022 and built in limited number only 25 units worldwide. (Picture from: Viritech)
They hope that the storage tank and powertrain control unit of the Viritech Apricale able to attract the attention of other industry players who are focused on developing hydrogen technology.

For this reason, the Italian premium car manufacturer took a German famous Formula-1 racer, Michael Schumacher in the development of the mentioned high-performance road car.
Ferrari 550 Barchetta (left) posed along with its successor Ferrari 575M Superamerica (right). (Picture from: SentimentalShop)
To realize the mentioned sports car into reality, then Ferrari submitted the project to Pininfarina, one of the Italian leading coachbuilders. So then in 1996, here was born a sports car named the Ferrari 550 Maranello Grand Tourer with a design that was said to be very thick, inspired by the legendary figure of the Ferrari 275 GTB.

Ferrari 550 Barchetta is made to be the spyder version in the 2000.(Picture from: Wikipedia)
Not only the coupe-style sports cars ever built during 1996 to 2001, it turns out that Pininfarina also made the spyder version in 2000 and called the Ferrari 550 Barchetta. During its production period there're 3,083 units of the Ferrari 550 Maranello had been built and the 550 Barchetta of 448 units. And among the many Ferrari 550 Maranello produced, there are some special units that were once owned by famous people.

Although the Ferrari 550 Maranello has successfully entered the production line of the prancing horse logoed car manufacturer, there are a number of Ferrari's inner circles who still feel that the car's design has not met expectations and needs a refreshment. So in 2002, Pininfarina revised the design to its performance, and the Ferrari 575M Maranello was born, in which the 575 model number refers to total engine displacement in centiliters, whilst the 'M' is an abbreviation of modificata ("modified").
Indeed the car was an all-around improved car version (modificata in Ferrari parlance), rather than an all-new construction and powered by a larger 5.75-litre version of the F133 engine. Aside from the redesigned interior, using a larger and more powerful engine, it turns out that updates from the 550 that were later installed on the 575M included substantial mechanical improvements, such larger brake discs, improved weight distribution, refined aerodynamics and fluid-dynamics along with an adaptive suspension set-up (the four independent suspensions are also controlled by the gearbox, to minimize pitch throughout the 200-milliseconds shift time).
For 2005, the company released a GTC handling package and a Superamerica
version (the coupé variants with a retractable hardtop), along with
raising the power from 508 hp to 533 hp. The Ferrari 575M Maranello was produced in between 2002 to 2006 with a total of 2,056 units, including 246 units with manual transmission. Meanwhile, the Superamerica model was produced by Ferrari as many as 559 units.
Who was the lucky famous rich person ever had the Ferrari 575M Maranello? Eminem, the world famous rapper is listed as one of the lucky persons who owns the Ferrari 575M Maranello to become one of the exotic car collections in his manor. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | FERRARI | WIKIPEDIA | FORZA-MAG | SENTIMENTALSHOP ]

Uniquely, shortly thereafter, in early 2021, a former Porsche designer named Walter De Silva also revealed a concept car that was built by the German manufacturer in 2008 called the Porsche 550ne "Little Bastard". The concept car has similar styles and looks with the next concept called Porsche 551 'Little Rebel' which born in the 2019 and also inspired by the 550 Spyder.

The one-off concept car is said to be inspired by the original design of the Porsche 550 Spyder which was once ridden by James Dean, a 1950s Hollywood's legendary actor. As we all know that the actor who has a hobby of car racing then passed away at the age of 24 in a tragic accident in 1955 while driving a Porsche 550 Spyder. And 'Little Bastard' is his nickname which is then written on the back of his Porsche 550 Spyder.
The man whose full name is James Byron Dean is an American actor who was born in Marion, Indiana on February 8, 1931. He is very famous in the 1950s thanks to his acting both on the screen, the Broadway theater stage, and on the big screen. Although his life journey was very short, he managed to become a legend to this day.

Although there is no official statement about the technical specifications. However, at first glance, it can be ascertained that this roofless concept car carries a typical Porsche's mid mounted boxer engine tending to the rear and has a rear wheel drive such as the inspiration source car, the 550 Spyder. This can be seen from the air inlet grille on the rear hood and on the side behind the door.
The roofless sports concept car with a single exhaust hole is also equipped with a manual transmission as seen from the look of the shift stick and three pedals at the foot of the driver's compartment. The concept car also has a simple cabin design, but still looks really cool with a pair of bucket-styled seats that are deliberately colored in the same way as James Dean's Porsche 550 Spyder. There's a little difference, ie the 550ne concept featured with modern touch, although it does not leave a typical classic lines of the original Porsche 550 Spyder.
It is not known for what purpose this car was made. The public only thought that the concept car would be a monument to commemorate to the legendary actor James Dean. Unfortunately, the existence of this concept car is unknown, whether it still in the Porsche plant or not? No one knows.😔 *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | CARZINE.GR ]
Unique ONES Shortly after the end of World War II, the automotive world was slowly getting back on its feet in which marked by many racing events flourished which were enthusiastically welcomed and attended by participants from both the automotive industry circles and privateers. At that time, the Grand Prix racing event was also rolling again and attracted the Alfa Romeo, one of the oldest Italian manufacturers to take part in it once again by bringing a new line of cars which then succeeded in the market and became a key player in the great post-war economic miracle in Italy.

For the Alfa Romeo, the early 1950s belonged to the Giulietta which was the first large car line models to be fully built by the company during the period from 1954 to 1965. Then there were several units of which were specially modified by the third parties, and it started by Bertone, the famous Italian coachbuilder is succeeded in building the Sprint 2 + 2 coupe and then shown it for the first time at the Turin Auto Show 1954. One year later the Berlina sedan and the Spider roadster are modified by another Italian coachbuilder, Pininfarina and joined with the Sprint to complete the Guilietta car line up that were visually appealing and fun to drive.

Almost in the same time, the sports car racing was booming once again in Europe and the US, and the 1,500cc modification became the most popular and hotly contested racing class (of which the Porsche 550 Spyder eventually dominate back then). The Italian manufacturer also made the Alfa Romeo racing cars based on the Giulietta that would be run in the competition.

At the end of 1955, Alfa Romeo motor sports engineers managed to find its finest race car candidate, named Alfa Romeo 750 Competizione, in which the "Competizione" means the car specifically made for racing purpose only and "750" was the body code for the Giulietta on which it was based. The sports car is designed and made by Felice Boano, who has developed the lightweight aluminum-made "speedster" body in collaboration with Carlo Abarth to match it on a boxed steel chassis.

The running gear, comprising an independent front suspension with twin
wishbones and coil springs and dampers, and a rigid-axle rear suspension, and could be said it was a piece of artwork. As for the drivetrain, the speedster is powered by a four-cylinder, dual-overhead cam 1.3-liter Alfa Romeo's engine based on the one used by the Giulietta Spyder and capable of spewing the power of 145 hp at 8,000 rpm, or nearly 100 hp per liter, which was a big number in the era.
1955 Alfa Romeo 750 Competizione could be said one of the serious contenders for the 550 Spyder in the 1,500cc modification racing class of the 1950s. (Picture from: FCAHeritage)
The machine coupled with the embedding of a close-ratio five-speed transmission and gear-driven, racing-spec cams
made the 750 Competizione an amazingly responsive car to wheel around a
racecourse with an overall weighs of 1,528 lbs. Even though those weight figures is slightly heavier than its rival the Porsche 550 Spyder, this is not an obstacle to its running speed, as under the hood it is then fitted with a blaster device that is said to be able to balance the extra heft with brute force and long heavy breathing.
So far, it is known that only two of the 750 Competizione speedsters have been ever made by Alfa Romeo of the initial plan was to build 50 cars. Some parties said, that the technical problems during testing had been the cause of the project's cancellation, yet others said the Alfa's business-focused management who had messed up the initial plan.
Either way, we will never know why the Alfa Romeo 750 Competizione has never appeared on the racecourse, even though at the time the most automotive observers and enthutiasts generally predicted it could be one of the serious contenders for the 550 Spyder in the 1,500cc modification racing class of the 1950s. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | THE DRIVE | FCA HERITAGE | WIKIPEDIA | ULTIMATECARPAGE ]

Even though the concept of this car is not entirely the result of Suzuki's design, it was designed by 24 master program students at the Istituto Europe di Design (IED) in Turin, Italy. Visually it is believed that the concept of this four-wheeled vehicle is inspired by Suzuki's design values accompanied by an image of life characterized by fun and sophistication as adapted from the famous classic Italian movie titled 'La Dolce Vita' (Italian for "the sweet life" or "the good life ") which was released in the 1960.
“Misano is one of the work results of our student teams from around the world. They have chosen Turin as the place to prepare their work. The opportunity to discuss and collaborate with automotive companies is a hallmark of this two-year training course,” said Paolo Zini, Director of IED Turin, Italy.
