Shortly after the introduction of the new Spyder, it was time for the coupé model to undergo the same technical transformation. The result was presented to the public at the Detroit Motor Show in January 2002. The Coupé adopted the elegant Giugiaro-designed body style from the 3200GT model it replaced, but under the skin almost everything is new. The typical boomerangshaped taillights from the 3200GT were dropped to meet American homologation requirements. The new Coupé has the same all-new normally aspirated V8 engine and offers, just like the open Spyder variant, two gearbox options: a traditional manual transmission (GT) and a Formula 1-style electro-hydraulic operated gearbox with gearshift paddles on the steering wheel (Cambiocorsa), both located between the rear wheels (transaxle layout).
