Bizzarrini 5300 GT StradaPhotography coming soon

Built by the ex-Ferrari engineer who created the 250 GTO. Corvette V8, low-slung body, and racing DNA from the man who knew Enzo's secrets.

History

Giotto Bizzarrini was one of the engineers who walked out of Ferrari in the 1961 'palace revolt.' He took his knowledge of the 250 GTO he'd designed and created his own car. The 5300 GT used the same Corvette V8 as the Iso Grifo (which he also engineered) but in a lighter, more aerodynamic body he designed himself.
