Gandini, whose designs for fast and furious machines like the Alfa Romeo Carabo, the Lancia Stratos, or the Lamborghini Countach and Miura adorned millions of teenage bedroom walls, died suddenly in the Rivoli municipality of Turin on Monday, Italian state broadcaster Rai said.
Wedge-shaped outlines became a trademark of his style, as did the experimental use of gull-wing or scissor doors, which open upwards rather than outwards, and which he was first to introduce with the Alfa Romeo 33 Carabo concept car that premiered at the Paris Motor show in 1968.
