Similar lines to our beloved Coupe

Yes! A local friend of mine has an Iso Rivolta, and whenever we happen to bring our respective cars to our local Cars & Coffee (his Iso, my e9) I always try to park next to him so that we can compare and contrast the two cars' designs. They are similar in size, their rooflines and other details. Not surprising, since Giorgetto Giugiaro designed both the Iso Rivolta and the BMW 3200 CS in1961. BMW borrowed the 3200 CS roofline when designing the 2000 CS, which begat the e9.
 
I don't know which one hit the auto show first but the 2nd was certainly inspired by the first. Wow!
