    The 3/4 rear view looks simply superb. However the front looks like a work in progress...

    I was hoping for styling better than this. It's good not great. Maybe the technology will be out of this world. If not, I'm keeping my Scuderia.

    Impressive performance figures, but not sure about its appearance though...

    Might take a little while to get use to.

    I'm getting one to baby sit my 599. Seems like they've done it again.

    They did it! That is how a modern Ferrari should look! :) :) :)

    I agree with the "evolved 308" comment -- and I see a bit of 246 in the profile . . . evolved and modern -- not retro.

    IMHO, this is best looking modern Ferrari by a landslide.


    An instant classic! :)

    I was expecting alot from Ferrari on this one, and they exceeded my expectations. They have definitely placed themselves back on top in respect to the Gallardo, etc. I'm thinking the price will be below the Scuderia, but not by much.

    Don't think so, they are not making as many of these as they did with the 430, so I'm thinking Scuderia + $30,000

    Great looking but; no air cooling anywhere for the engine or breaks? I can allready see a future overheating problems with this car. Unless they have designed electric cooling fans for the breaks and the air intakes.

    You really believe the designers and engineers didn´t tackle the cooling needs before deciding they could do without any additional intakes?
