Ferrari Mailing List: Re: F450 Spy Shots

[Charles Perry (charles]

Intriguing! From the rendering, the mid/rear looks a little like an Enzo
that plowed a Mitsu Eclipse. The nose has a lot of Audi R8 in it to me.

At any rate, I'm pleased that it looks like they may be at least making
an effort to get back to styling that has some grace and beauty to it.
>From the 575 on I feel that the cars have been impressive performers
wrapped in 'whatever' styling. I do like the 430, but it's still not a
beautiful Ferrari - more in the form-follows-function model like the
F40.

Like Steve, I'll wait to see one in the flesh but I don't hate it on
first glance as I did with the 612, 599 and 360...

I like the blurred grass in the spy shots. Gives a little extra
authenticity to those guys camped out in the hills with the lenses that
look like fire hydrants.

The last one is a computer rendering.

 

Hmmmm... I guess, as always, I wanna see it in person before making any
decisions.
