The Ghia G230 S was a two-seat sports car that Carrozzeria Ghia showed at the 1963 Turin Show, based on the Fiat 2300. Unlike the Fiat 2300 Coupe, which Ghia also designed and bodied, the G230 S sat on a tubular spaceframe designed and built by the specialists Gilco. Four examples were made, two coupes and two convertibles. Ghia's owner Luigi Segre had pushed for the car, but after his sudden death it never entered production. It nonetheless mattered later, because a picture of it on the cover of Road and Track led Burt Sugarman to commission the related Ghia 450 SS, which used a similar design language with Chrysler V8 power.
