Vandenbrink finally realizes his vision, and the 612 has never looked better.
Vandenbrink’s creation of the modern Ferrari Shooting Brake took more than 10 years to complete. Now, it is finally in existence and can be cast in metal. This stunning Ferrari build by Vandenbrink, a coach builder from the Netherlands, is not well-known. The Vandenbrink Shooting Brake is here. While the name may not sound very creative, the car itself can be described as a work-of-art.
This car will be recognizable by anyone with some Ferrari experience.612 ScagliettiWe dare to say that the GT car looks great.BetterWith more junk in its trunk. The first renderings of this marriage were seen in 2009. However, as you might expect, it isn’t easy to add a substantial backside to a Ferrari supercar.Vandenbrink.
Although the photos don’t show much detail about the build, they reveal a classic Shooting Brake design with a sloped roof. This fits in well with the current trend for four-door liftbacks with stretched doors like thePorsche Panamera Sport TurismoWhat about the rear-seat passengers who use the roof’s dual windows? This is aVerycool touch.
The Scaglietti’s 2+2 arrangement makes it easy to add space to your passengers. Vandenbrink does not specify how much extra interior space is added to the Scaglietti, but the cargo area seems quite generous given the 612’s size. The rear passengers have a little more headroom, and there is a pass-through on the backside that can be used to transport skis. The 612 has a 5.7-liter V12 that sends 540 horsepower (403 megawatts) to its rear wheels. A good set of snow tires could take this car someplace unexpected due to the extra weight at the rear.
We doubt that the Vandenbrink Shooting Brake will ever be exposed to such extreme conditions. The only one currently in existence. Future models will be strictly built-to-order. It’s a custom Ferrari built by a coach builder.
