It’s amazing the things people come up with; ok, somehow you managed to break/remove the gear lever. Fine, crap happens to everybody. But honestly now, a wooden stick… shift? This guy certainly must have had to much free time on his hands.
Our Dutch friends over at Autoblog.nl received a set of images from one of their readers featuring what seems to be a prototype for an upcoming Coupe-Cabrio (CC) version the Maserati GranTurismo. Despite the Ferrari alloy-wheels, we’ll agree with our fellow Dutch bloggers that this isn’t a Ferrari prototype –check out details like the dashboard, the doorhandles and the chrome strips on the A-pillar all of which point out to the GT. And if you’re wondering why we believe that the car seen here is a prototype for a drop-top version of Maserati’s glamourpuss coupe, then you’ll have to see another of set of images (check out the first picture after the jump) featuring a similar test mule on the dynometer. 
1984's Ferrari Testarossa and its re-engineered sibling, the 1991 512TR were two of our favorite childhood dreamcars. Then in 1994 Ferrari spilled the bucket with the re-styled F512M which in our opinion, was and still is, one of the ugliest Ferraris ever to leave the Maranello factory. Of course, that doesn’t justify this dejected excuse for a replica that’s based on the ever-lasting Pontiac Fiero mid-engined sports coupe (jeez, how many are out there?), which looks like it jumped out of a “Thunderbird” episode from the late 60’s. -More pics after the jump
