1978 Coggiola Janus Coupe

The Coggiola Janus was a concept car from 1978. Like the god Janus, this Coggiola prototype was "two-faced" with asymmetrically-designed sections starting at the mid-point of the body. Intended for production, the Janus incorporated a highly-refined surface treatment found of many of Coggiola's cars. As a mock-up model, the clay body was sliced in the middle and incorporated mirrors to present two possible design proposals for both different sides. The graphic finish of the car's right side was lacking, while the right side featured a different window theme, with no door handle or fuel tank lid, as shown on the car's opposite side. It was presented at the 1978 Turin Motor Show.
