The Aluminum Dream: GFG Style’s Peralta S Redefines One-Off Supercars

01 Apr 2025
  • How does the Peralta S channel past legends while pushing design boundaries?
  • What performance platform underpins this stunning sculpture?

In the world of bespoke supercars, few creations grab attention quite like the GFG Style Peralta S. Designed by legendary Italian designer Giorgetto Giugiaro and his son Fabrizio, this jaw-dropping machine is a one-of-a-kind statement in form, craftsmanship, and retro-futuristic design. Built for Mexican car collector Carlos Peralta and his sons, the Peralta S takes its name from the family itself and sits on a platform derived from the powerful Maserati MC20.

With a body sculpted entirely from hand-bent, mirror-polished aluminum, this mid-engine supercar doesn’t just aim to impress, it demands it. From its canopy-style front-opening roof to the dramatic gullwing side windows, every element of the Peralta S seems engineered to stun.

Retro Inspiration Meets Radical Execution

At first glance, the Peralta S looks like something beamed in from a sci-fi concept art gallery. But its roots are unmistakably classic. The design pays homage to the 1972 Maserati Boomerang concept, a car originally penned by Giugiaro himself. That inspiration is visible in the aggressive wedge shape and uninterrupted flow of polished metal from nose to tail.

The unique bodywork skips conventional doors and instead features a massive front-hinged canopy that opens upward for cabin access. Adding even more drama are the giant gullwing-style side windows, which eliminate the need for traditional glass seams. Only the side sills, front spoiler, and rear diffuser break the aluminum theme, using exposed carbon fiber to highlight performance elements.

Maserati Power Beneath the Shine

Beneath its spectacular surface, the Peralta S is more than a static showpiece, it’s a true performance machine. Under the skin, it shares its platform with the Maserati MC20, one of the most acclaimed Italian supercars of recent years. That means a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 engine, delivering 621 horsepower and 538 lb-ft of torque to the rear wheels.

The combination of lightweight materials, aerodynamic design, and proven Maserati engineering suggests that the Peralta S is not only beautiful but brutally fast. And while it may never hit a production line, this singular creation perfectly captures the essence of high-concept automotive art with a serious dose of power under the hood.
