The first one looks to have a Pininfarina emblem on the side. The body contours are reminiscent of the Testa Rossa. Is this a Testa Rossa coupe?

The other is an Aston Martin - but I do not recognize anything other than the grille.

Is that your final answer

No, but you're speaking the correct dialect.

It's not some kind of Abarth is it? I was initially thinking Alfa TZ or SZ.

Anybody put this up yet?

Not an Abarth or an Alfa. Getting close though...

I'm stumped, so chew on this one. Let me just say it predates the 928 by a couple years:

OK, you didn't show the grill of the Pininfarina bodied car because it would have been a dead giveaway. It's a Maserati Tipo A6GCS/53 PF

I would say that it's out of a mid-engined lightweight sportscar and it looks expensive....... (hand welded joints, coilovers and suspension linkages)
Is it a Aerial Atom, or a Lotus 340R??? (I don't know if either of those are turbocharged but, hey, I've been away for a day.......)

Here's one hint, that's not a turbocharger.
