    I really like it...the rims need A LOT of improvement however, looks like cheap standard.

    With this engine pic it seems to me the hood opens to the front, like F40 & F50 did???

    Cheers, Jens

    I really like it! I'm not crazy about the high trunk line... but it's always a trade off. It's a trade off that I personally like as it gets me a hard top option and space for my 6 year old to join my wife and I as we cruise through the mountains. Can't wait until it's in my garage.

    I don't like the back at all, the interior and front looks okay. Ferrari needs to make a ferrari that looks something along the lines of the 360. The California, 599, and 612 have the same shape... time to go back to the original better looking ferrari.

    It isn't playskool. It has a black edge cause it's emo. If you were our well-known horse and someone put you on that car, you'd be too.

    When are the sketches coming?
    I wanted to see how they did it.
    And PininFarina designed so it should be good looking;)

    I dunno..... i think i'm starting to change my mind..... i admit when i first saw the pics.. i thought.... oh dear!
    now i see these pics and i dunno, i think i like it a bit. i love the interior, thats very nice no doubt. i'm glad they have a black tacho.. i really didnt like the red/yellow ones.
    i think the rear tail lights in the lower bumper look a bit like an afterthought....
    i like the general shape of it, very 550maranello... i just dont like the vent/crease on the side of the car.

    overall, i'll admit i was quick to judge... i still dont LOVE it, but i like it

    You ARE not crazy Boris.........my 348 has the same side turn signal on it. :p:p

    They must have had a surplus of these from 1985 when the first 328 came out. :D:D

    I think it looks pretty nice if I was in the market for a Ferrari this wouldn't be my first choice but I still think its a pretty sexy vehicle. It just doesn't give me that "I would kill to own this" feeling like the 599 and 430 did when i first saw them.

    The car looks quite attractive, actually. The only thing that's missing is a gated shifter!

    Can those buttons be retro-fitted into the 348? :eek::eek:

    Very funny! On this note, I would have to agree. "Comfort" is not something I associate with Ferrari and I sure would not want a button setting for it.

    It looks cheap to me with to many contrived details, and it certainly lacks the purity of line that all beautiful Ferrari's possess, it looks like I’ll be holding on to my 550 for the foreseeable future.

    Not sure what I think about this car yet. I guess I will have to see it in person to decide. The gauge cluster looks pretty cool.
