Wow.

Although Pininfarina isn't doing too well these days, I'm still sad to hear this.

Yeah, and this is a bad time for this to happen to them. Pininfarina isn't doing well, but Bertone and Zagato are even worse so I'm not as likely to blame management in this case as it seems its a bad time to be a coachbuilder. Who'd figure with the record number of ugly-ass cars being made?
Midnight in a Perfect World on Amazon or order anywhere. The first book in a quartet chronicling the rise of a man from angry criminal to philanthropist. Midnight... is a distopic noirish novel featuring 'Duchess', a modified 1990 Subaru Legacy wagon.
