Husmen 699 GTO: renderings of this future Ferrari concept car

I think I have fallen in love. Ok not with a woman that would not be fair on my wife, but with the Husmen 699 GTO. There is nothing better than looking at renderings of future concept cars and this one has been designed by Emre Husmen who is a design student at IED.

While looking closely at the design I can see hints of a couple of Ferrari’s from the old 250 GTO to the new Ferrari 599 GTB. Hey I think I can almost see a bit of Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione in the car as well.

The Husmen 699 GTO will have a carbon fiber body and have V8 twin-supercharged, this will run on biofuel. This concept will also have hydraulic suspension, great if you have to go over speed bumps. This concept could become reality as Husmen are in talks with a coachbuilder from Italy.
