Ferrari 288 GTO Redesign - I feel brave

Subscribe to my BRAND NEW channel - • 2020 Ram Rebel ReadyLi...
The Ferrari 288 Gran Turismo Omologata or homologated Grand Tourer or simply GTO is the homologated version of the Ferrari 308 GTB and it was in production from 1984 to 1987 and built in Ferrari's Maranello factory.
It’s one of only three Ferraris to ever wear the GTO name - the Ferrari 250 GTO, the 288 GTO and the 599 GTO.
The "288" refers to the GTO's 2.8 litre V8 engine and unlike the 308's 2.9 L engine, the GTO's V8 was mounted longitudinally taking up what was the 308's rear trunk space. This was done to make room for the twin turbochargers and intercoolers.
The engine produced 400 PS at 7,000 rpm and 366 lb⋅ft of torque at 3,800 rpm and was linked to a 5-speed manual transmission.
This gave the GTO a 0-60 mph time in around 5 seconds and Ferrari claimed 0-125 mph in just 15 seconds with a top speed of 189 mph. This made it one of the fastest street-legal production cars of its time.
Several Formula 1 drivers were offered GTOs by Ferrari and the very last one of the 272 units built was gifted to Niki Lauda by Enzo Ferrari himself.

288 GTO is easily one of the most beautiful Ferraris ever made. Criminally underrated.

[@JGunit]

They sell for @ 3 million dollars. I'd say they're rated pretty well.

[@Retheraq]

@@JGunit A F40 is much better known actually.

[@JGunit]

@@Retheraq I wouldn't argue with that, because I didn't argue with that.

[@Retheraq]

@@JGunit what did you argue with then. There is a saying.. If at first you don't succeed, try again. So, go ahead, try again.

[@jonathanjoensen2679]

@@Retheraq Don’t pull his leg mate😂 Nothing that he can add improves perfection. But YES agree, he is well on his way to transpose a slim mean beautifull beast to a fat ugly nannycar. He should stop before it gets embarrassing. Like some loonie wanting to add perfecting touch ups to a Vincent Van Gogh painting. He is well out of his league!

[@ruidurao5889]

For me, the most beautiful car EVER!

[@TheKnightsShield]

Looks pretty awesome, mate. I have only one slight gripe, you missed the black separation line on the far left side of the picture, next to the lights. The 288/308 was always my favourite Ferrari, not least because Tom Selleck drove one (308) in Magnum P.I. in the 80s.

[@norberthofer5830]

Please leave perfection as is.

[@SwanDrives]

Man this looks sick!! One suggestion I have when modernizing older cars would be to thicken the A pillars. I feel like there’s a large distinction between old and new cars in that spot. Would make the redesign feel even more authentic! Keep up the great work man

[@TheAtb85]

Strong Lancia 037 vibes, which I also love. :)

[@snowsultima9021]

Thank you for modernising my favourite ferrari.

[@denistoskov5723]

Finallyyy!!! I requested this a long time ago and it didnt look like you are going to do it. Am glad that you gave the 288gto a shot

[@spider_man_406]

I didn’t realize how bad I wanted Ferrari to revive the 288 GTO until I saw this. Thank you Sketch.

[@delicrux]

Please do the sprinter turino ae86 or just the classic ae86. Also the dotsun z240

[@ericbassel4805]

My favorite Ferrari of all time, thanks for upgraded rebirth of such an iconic masterpiece 💯

[@grtbgf]

Props to TaxTheRich for the greatest supercar videos ever made. The true Gigachad of supercar world.

[@jesseolivermusictherapy]

were did you get a touch screen computer from? and how much was it?

[@darren1naudi]

Gorgeous before and gorgeous after. WELL DONE!!!

[@richardike2342]

I believe there are some things that should be left alone. The 288 is my 3rd favorite Ferrari.

[@wieldylattice3015]

Your bravery was well utilized

[@magnolerriccardo6840]

0/60 of those days is almost the one of a 500abarth of today...incredible.

[@adonian]

This is my FAVORITE Ferrari.

[@goatmonkey2112]

Pretty good. The 288 GTO is one of my all time favorites. I think it needs the vents on the front. Maybe a modernized version of them.

[@redmr2na]

Congratulations!, this the first video you've done where your redesign didn't completely suck.

[@codyfordyce7357]

Definitely a timeless design! They’ve gone pretty off course for sure. You did a great job too! I would have done more modern, hidden weather stripping around the windshield and driver window, a more 458 style font end without the 80’s chin slab, a smooth a-pillar-to-roof curvature, kept the c-pillar intake, implement the more modern “graphical” elements like headlights to show modern brand identity (maybe the DRL’s from the 296, 458, or sf90?

[@AleksandarGospic]

Wish we could see your redesigns really produced, most of them are great, like this one too!

[@EranAranAriel]

That is interesting... the design is so quintessential and iconic.

[@Frank-pe9pk]

Sharp looking redesign! But, it’s looking like a Corvette design!😳

[@ivanrajkovaca6557]

One of your best 👍

[@CGMediaproductions]

Great inspiration for the Ferrari SP programme. Hope they get to see it!

[@shashankreddy6843]

you are a god!!!!!! its a perfect modernization

[@YOEL_44]

OMFG that was great, I love that airbrushed style, in fact I think one of my aunts has an old Ferrari poster in her house with this exact style, only thing I would change is the hue on the mirrors, make them a bit more orange.

[@tscrec7343]

What a good work!

[@76marcpalermino]

Looks fantastic 🔥

[@samyaitzai9916]

please do about the peugeot 308 at the 1980

[@SpyderRios]

You did an awesome job with this one. Someone meeds to replicated it in real life. It’s that good

[@anejz1637]

Next do a Moderen Version of Audi Quattro please

[@ForzaMonkey]

You seen the Audi Hoonitron yet? Audi already made a modern version of the Quattro, except you can't buy one *EXCEPTION: Ken Block*

[@anejz1637]

@@ForzaMonkey yes I did saw it

[@darinclark1853]

Brave indeed.... You done good.

[@clements3715]

Very nice work as usual :) You should try the F308

[@camarofreak1969]

A very nice update. I do think the side air intake should be a bit bigger though.

[@jesvans]

cool edit

[@LeonForex]

Your work is always filled with passion and that inspires me to go after my own career which is in aircraft design Also could you please do an AC Cobra redesign video

[@williambraynen7332]

I think the hood vents could’ve been a bit shorter in length to make space for some headlights like the new Countach headlights, instead of the led stripe in the grille

[@ant208]

308 to me the best looking design from the 70/80's

[@Regan_Tatham]

Wow this is amazing

[@joseguillermoovazquezherna3465]

Please please redesign/modernizing Datsun 510!. Nice Nice work 👍🏼❤️

[@Lookbusybuddy]

What to do with de tomaso panterra. Its got almost lambo front with ferrari rear

[@iiprandz-officialyoutubech5784]

I would love to see redesign for Dodge Intrepid/Eagle Vision/Chrysler Concorde/LHS/New Yorker/300M/ in 2022 if Chrysler kept on building LH cars, so can you do it?

[@het2184]

What is the name of the program where you make these designs?

[@albertrusu359]

What do you think of the S1 Hoonitron?

[@aliixgd6318]

This Is probably your only redesign of any car that I don't think looks better than the original, it still looks amazing don't get me wrong, but the original 288 is probably in my top 3 best looking cars of all time, idk why I just love it. Good job modernizing it anyway and I look forward to what u do next :)

[@jeromep3182]

This is one of my fav cars one of my dream cars

[@prrku146]

Ares Panther got pop up headlights ?????

[@fw.asterion]

Your redesign looks really awesome👌👌 The headlights could have been split in more elements instead of only one stripe, but rest is very good

[@smavtmb2196]

Looks great

[@jamesaron1967]

Very nice! I would have gone a little further in reducing the sharpness of the nose but all in all a great modernization.

[@ailrasyid1029]

Hi @sketchmonkey, can you make list about most beautiful cara according to you. That would be nice. Thank you

[@mikobel7131]

Amazing…..are you taking requests? How about e46 m3 next? Rx7/MR2??

[@che.mutkoo]

I love it. The squared-off but sleek design and the halved effect works wonders on this modernized design. I don't get the negative criticism though, I think it shows a completely different direction that a brand can proliferate in Lamborghini tried but didn't quite get it with the new Countach, however, this type of redesign has the potential to be great in new ways by keeping the essential details of the car. More so, the general "shape" of the car. I believe cars now are really fast, and that a couple of tenths could be knocked off in terms of 0 to 60, by sacrificing modern aerodynamics with a more squared design. Great job, really enjoyed the process. Cheers!

[@welfaredubz9050]

love the videos and the effort put in to the customs.. Very hard to top Pininfarina tho, a bit too American/muscle car at the end for me. still a dope rework all the same!

[@Armani-2005]

Could you do the ‘92 Supra

[@ilopancharov]

For the 4 square lights o the front you should have incorporated the pixel boxes from the Ioniq 5

[@prancisfena]

Love this redesign. 👍 It rivals the Aston Victor

[@d_t_r7101]

You should've used the ferrari fxxk wheels.That wil look perfect

[@KeenJow]

Great concept. Make the Fiat 126p.

[@artbystjepan]

Love it ✌😊

[@jwalster9412]

Looks great.

[@redpheonix6307]

wow now i will make one and compare it to yours 😊😁

[@godsinbox]

what about pedestrian safety? they do jump a lot of curbs, 2nd only to the mustang curb magnet

[@Sergeantgrunt]

I absolutely love the 288 GTO! I think you did a great job at a refresh. The headlights are not right though. Makes it look like a shop with zero knowledge on headlight design took an LED strip and sad "Done!" Overall though I love what you've done!

[@zipperooo1526]

I would like to see you making the Nissan r34

[@FRITZI999]

AWESOME DESIGN-Update.... make a Bodykit out of this.

[@sergis3521]

Plz 300sl gull-wing

[@witchcraftauto]

Man, as always I am not disappointed! You have such an eye for this sort of thing its awesome to watch the designs unfold.

[@СашаПупчанский]

Howdy, can you please try Renault Clio 4 bh? Would be really fun😉

[@Kallusklass]

You should feel proud!

[@GeorgesChannel]

Wonderful redesign! I personally would prefer headlights that are doubled (mirroring the top strip at the bottom, even perhaps split them in four parts in the middle too).

[@hharlington7156]

Thought this was about great teacher onizuka for like a straight minute lmao

[@redpheonix6307]

sick

[@eviebr83]

Modern Ferraris have a very clinical clean, precision to the styling and it lacks an expression of passion. It feels like art created by AI. I love the 288 GTO, more so that the 355 or even the F40! This redesign is a beautiful evolution of the original 😍😍

[@MrRorosao]

It looks good, not modern but look like a Ferrari widebody facelift kind of thing

[@DrEEAyM]

Hope to see someday the Peugeot 206 cc an XR in this channel.

[@victorvictor8587]

You missed the Knight Rider LED Lights across the front of the Hood.

[@BIBOsd]

Do the e92 m3

[@bujarebel-b8077]

Do once a Opel/Vauxhall! Please

[@Pk-xw6hp]

Do lancia stratos, please

[@yerrie1908]

The F40 experience is better but thee looks the beauty, nothing beats the 288GTO

[@victorcreed8856]

"...massive V-12 engine" re: 250 GTO. It's actually a 3.0L V12. It's a pretty compact unit

[@alemultijet]

Una delle vetture più belle di sempre. Onore italiano

[@hafizdhiyaurrahmanyahya7841]

Can you do F40, its one of the most beauty ferrari

[@Penny2105]

If Ferrari was American car brand 😂

[@3.6Turbskis]

this is actually good, the 190e was just sus tho...

[@balthaharis3223]

It looks great but at night you would not see anything only with those led's it lacks some proper ligights to actually see

[@rafaellastracom6411]

You say you were feeling brave? Some might say suicidal, nevertheless you always seem to pull it off. Fantastic aesthetic.

[@subiesvx]

The original had the ungainly tall side mirror on the drivers side, not because they thought it looked good but it was so it would be functional and allow the driver to see back. The form was dictated by function. The new version may have a similar vision situation, so while the new mirror form looks nice, you have to ask yourself what the driver would be able to see using them in a real life situation. In industrial design, form should follow function and in this case the reason for the extreme elevation of the mirror may have been ignored in the redesign. Note, the one on the passenger side (which looked more normal) was much lower because it was functional at a lower height. A real challenge would be to assume the redesign would have a similar relationship of driver eye location to optimum mirror location and design a mirror that would satisfy that geometry in a manor that is not as ugly as the original.

[@karginmoments7817]

One of your best redesigns 👍👍

[@fredbarron8582]

Good job mate but here's my nit pick, if you're not going to have pop up headlights because they're illegal you can't then give it led lights that would also be illegal, they could never be mounted that low.

[@lameeon1919]

Can you do a lamborghini miura redesign, i would love to see how you'd design it to fit the modern day

[@Le-Chiffre-01]

I would really like to see a redesign of the 2011 VW Scirocco R, Maybe as an electric car..?

[@JohnTezlaNFS]

It looks like a HotWheels, in a good way

[@SLO_MZ3]

I just found your channel and this is really cool work which makes me want to redesign a car that's popular in Australia called the au falcon some people love the design and some people think it looks horrendous

[@i.am.adrian]

That redesign is hot! Nice work. Beautiful car before, aggressive and beautiful after.

[@Woodsterr-hd8sj]

Please make the Alpine A310, I think that could be interesting.

[@roadsofhahnisland2007]

You should redesign a semi truck How about redesign the new 2022 Kenworth T680
