I didn't mean to sound like a jerk, sorry if it came off that way. I just noticed that when I looked at my post again.

The 550 Maranello started production in 1997. I think the Maranello concept was out a couple of years earlier, so SLP could have been influenced by the Ferrari.

The SS scoop, however, is really only a re-work of the 77-79 Z28 hoodscoops. The similarities between the Ferrari and Camaro is purely coincidence.
