It looked like a Corvette kind of, the only badge on the front was a ferrari kind of shape. It was wider and lower than a vette and looked totally cool. No vet chevron on the rear, what was it? Newer Vintage. Sorry no pics, cannot find anything online, I want that car! ---

The Berlinettas or GTB cars with the front engine V12s look a lot like the Corvette to me. > **[Ferrari Multimedia: Videos, Images and Sounds - Ferrari.com](http://auto.ferrari.com/en_EN/multimedia/video/1779/31cb7e5a-b53f-40b8-ad2f-fad3f9874dab/)** > > Discover the latest videos and photogalleries, apps and interactives of Ferrari's famous sports and GT cars.

The only logo I can think of that resembles the Prancing Horse is the one Peugeot uses. Try googling “Peugeot sports car images” and see if anything pops up. ---

It was a badge similar to the shape of Ferrari, but the car was definitely lower and wider than the links from @jtsanders. The shape of the badge in front was basically a rectangle with a triangular bottom, but no ferrari detailing, it was mostly silver and I could make out no more than that. Sexy rolls over the front fenders, low and a mean looking machine! I mean it had Le mans car as an option, not a peugot, thanks though @the_same_mountainbike ---

It looked kind of like this but more street and cabin normal. ![](http://www.diseno-art.com/images_2/I2B_Concept_Raven_Le%20Mans.jpg) ---

Maybe a Volkswagen, um, Lamborghini. Google super cars and look at the image page to see if anything looks familiar. Click on the image to find out what it is. There is also a site named [supercars.net](http://supercars.net). You might browse it to learn a little about what you find once you know what it is. And let us know. I’m curious. ---

Look up “Pagani cars” and see if you recognize it. The Huayra fits the description, but I’m unable to post a link. ---

@the_same_mountainbike the Pagani cars look cool but not balanced, high in the rear they are, for most and just downright ugly for the Huayra ---

I was thinking Bricklin, but that’s not later model. I thought I deleted my previous comment, sorry ---

You’re right, Canadian thing was Bricklin, but that’s not going to be confused with anything modern: ![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/0a/Bricklin_SV-1_AMI.jpg) ---

Aston Martin DB7 or DB9? You didn’t give us much to go on. ---

Gumpert uses a logo that looks a bit like Ferraris. Is the Gumpert Apollo what you saw? [http://www.gumpertracing.com/gallery.php](http://www.gumpertracing.com/gallery.php) ---

As far as the Bricklin goes . . . I clearly remember a book or magazine . . . a long time ago . . . said the Bricklin front end looked like it was swallowing an 8 track [Next page](https://community.cartalk.com/t/help-me-figure-out-a-car-i-saw/84971.md?page=2)
