What car is this?
 
I saw it driving next to me on tuesday and I couldn't identify it. I figured someone here might be able to.

I was thinking Italian because of the pagoda style roof. It was an old race design they did so the driver and navigator's helmets would fit in the vehicle, although the front end did look 60's 911ish, without the center stripe.

This is a Fiat Abarth Zagato. Very similar but I'm not 100% sure if its the same. Maybe different year.

Close. Similar roof, and tail lights. Also the signature on the back.

Looking at more classic abarths I'm positive it is one. Now to just lock down the year.

Damn, should have refreshed before posting haha. Nice find!

It was a slick looking car. Pretty small, and reminded me of the twins.. if they were Italian, and 50 years old.

And if you can read the blurry license plate it says OSCA. Great job. I knew someone here would get it.

Those cars aren't cheap, good to see one on the road.

Never seen one here, most likely never will.
