The Vandenbrink GTO was initially conceived as the 'Ferrari 599 GTO Mugello' concept study, but serious customer demands made the Netherlands-based Design Company decide to actually build the car.

Actual coachbuilding will be performed in cooperation with co-founder Robert Koumans and Ferrari specialist and Dutch coachbuilder Hietbrink.

Speaking about their design philosophy, Michiel van den Brink says: "Our automotive designs are driven by our hearts and skills; beautiful and within the right brand perception. They are intuitive but in line with the philosophy of functionalism, and technically realistic."
