Bertone Ramarro

Italian design house Bertone was in full swing in the early ’80s. Since the name was so popular in America, Bertone wanted to present something that was based on a famous US model, and what better than the Corvette? The Corvette C4 was all-new for 1984, and Bertone used the opportunity to show its version (via Motor1).

Called the Bertone Ramarro, it was an angular and strange-looking sports car with several unique features. It was a standard C4 with the same 5.7-liter TPI V8 engine but with a completely new exterior, interior, and unique wheels. The best design feature was the special sliding doors which proved practical but complicated to put in serial production.
