Novità matrix listata per luglio



We can expect another concept car from Matrix Scale Models in July. The Matrix showcar series is now : Osi Scarabeo 1966, Iguana ItalDesign 1969, Pininfarina P33 1968, P5 33.2 1969, Cuneo P33.2 1971 and Bertone 33.2 Navajo 1976.

The Caimano have been designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro, Matrix will release 2 colours in july:

MX50102-191 Caimano AlfaSud 1971 silvergrey, as the car is on show at Museo Storico Arese.
MX50102-192 Caimano AlfaSud 1971 bronze, ? a colour scheme unknown to me...???

Sofar the Caimano was made only by Alezan kits and in 1:14 as RC toys by Elligi-SIGE.

The Caimano was presented in 1971 at the Torino Motor Show, at the same time as the Alfasud Berlina. Like the production car, the Caimano was designed by Giugiaro at ItalDesign. The platform is the same as that of the AlfaSud, with a shortened wheelbase and raked steering column to ensure an extended driving position and a lower profile. No supercar performance, under the hood is a Sud 4-cylinder boxer engine of 1584 cc, with 65 hp.
