Fabrizio Giugiaro’s Peralta S to make US debut at Monterey Motorsports Festival 2025

The Peralta S – the Fabrizio Giugiaro-designed one-off supercar created for collector Carlos Peralta – will be making its US debut at the Monterey Motorsports Festival on Saturday August 16, 2025.

Inspired by Giorgetto Giugiaro’s 1972 Maserati Boomerang concept car, the Peralta S uses the current MC20’s carbon-monocoque underpinnings, which means it is powered by a 621bhp twin-turbocharged V6. Produced by GFG Style, the company set up by Fabrizio and Giorgetto in 2015, the body is made from hand-formed, mirror-polished aluminium that covers the length of the car. Only the sills, rear diffuser and front spoiler are made from carbonfibre.

A front-hinged canopy extends upwards to reveal the interior of the Peralta S. It also eschews traditional windows – instead, they open gullwing-style each side. The wheels are also bespoke, inspired by the Boomerang’s originals, although there is a nod to the future courtesy of an LED headlight strip in the nose. Inside, the interior has been reworked with lashings of leather on the surfaces, but the pressures of modern homologation mean that the unique Boomerang steering wheel couldn’t be replicated in the new car.

The Peralta S made its world debut at the Pastejé Automotive Invitational vehicle show in Mexico earlier this year; it is believed that the model is to remain a one-off.

“The Peralta S has a typical 1970s attitude, and has nothing to do with today’s cars,” said Fabrizio. “I wanted to embellish it with citations, styling cues and references to shapes from a past that made history, but it is also a tribute to my father, through a modern reinterpretation of the volumes of the Boomerang.”

In other news, the Monterey Motorsports Festival will also be hosting a talk from classic car detective Laura Kukuk on car collecting, with tips on pre-purchase inspections, authenticity checks and forensic vehicle analysis.
