| Mercedes The two "Vision" concept cars were a good surprise. It is funny to see the great difference between the coupe, the first attempt, and the convertible, closer from the definitive shape. More, the size of the concept is more like a SLK template than a supercar. Finally, usually the final version is always wiser than the concept but for the SLR, the final version is much more accomplished and virile than the initial sketch. |

| Sbarro Franco Sbarro has made many masterpieces, but since the creation of his school Espera, a lot of more questionable models are now signed by the Swiss master. The mid 80's Sbarro 540 K is part of the first group: this replica is astonishing and perfectly built, with a lot of modern technical details, hidden under the sculptural dress of the 540K. The 8 produced cars (between 1981 and 1985) was built around a chassis of Mercedes 300 SEL 6.3 and powered by a 500 SL engine. The 2005 Sbarro SB2 Tornado belongs to the group of cars a little more criticized. To make a speedster from a crashed Ferrari 456 is a good idea but the result is sorely lacking in grace and class. Finally, the Tornado looks more to a cheap kit car and is not up to the mark of the Sbarro coat of arms. |
