Sitting next door to a Lancia stand, where Lancias were badged as Chryslers, and Chryslers as Lancias (yes – we’re confused too) the Zagato 500 coupe struggled for attention. And while the trademark Zagato double bubble roof-line didn’t really work on the diminutive form of the 500, overall this was a quietly impressive and appealing piece of work. Of particular appeal is this plastic window surround, which I thought was an eye-catching detail, and creates an interesting surface break between C-pillar and roofline.
