    I find it stunning. In my opinion, it's the prettiest Ferrari of the last decade.

    Agreed, An F-250 is masculine but a beautiful GT car has curves and poise..see TDF/SWB/GTO/Dino or if you like E-type/DB4/GTV
    Just my thing but I like to keep masculine for utility vehicles or US muscle cars, both of which are great. For me every time I read in a manufacturers blurb about ‘aggressively styled front end/grill/aero package/cup holder my soul dies a little bit.
    I guess I always look to the Spitfire as my design icon, now that actually was ‘a weapon’, I doubt many Spitfire pilots though of their planes as male.

    Seeing more pictures of it lately, I think it's a step in the right direction and pretty good looking. It's much more futuristic looking, which means it will likely age poorly, but I think that's OK because not every product needs to be timeless. I'd take it over and 812.

    Thank you! Great info on a stunning car. Am thinking Rosso Corsa metallic, yellow calipers, Nero interior, no outside carbon, all carbon options for inside. The inside of this car is crazy good.

    I think this may be a car for an historic color. Harken back to the classic days.

    Looks very elegant Tom. I was watching some videos and noticed this one in Blu Roma I believe. Looks absolutely stunning as well:

    Also not a big fan of the grill but overall I still like the car. Here's how I'd like mine please....

    Avorio over Cuoio leather . Daytona seats with black stitching. Light satin chrome grill (photoshopped). "Shiny" wheels.

    Can somebody please order this spec and then sell in to me in a couple of years for a hundred grand off sticker after barely driving it please! Just DM me your info so we can stay in touch! :)

    You are clearly a man of impeccable style and taste!
    Cioccolato or iroko with avorio exterior. Trust me! ;)

    My dream car is a 365 GTB/4 painted Giallo Dino with VM 3104 "Arancia" leather. Someday!

    There is a theory in design that supposes by including one small "wrong" element in a design, one actually heightens the overall success of whatever the thing is, by focusing the eye on that one element as slightly off, thereby keeping the eye from knit picking the totality of the design overall.

    That grill certainly does it for me. Lol

    LOL. Alas, the front grill of a car is not a small design element.
    On the bright side, can't see it from the cockpit!!

    OK, this is not a bad look from here.
    Cuoio with iroko details per the post by @perrinnation.
    Goofy looking grill not in view!

    It seems like an age ago but i had an Azzuro California 456M GT. It has a cuoio interior with blu medio dash top etc.
    I didn't spec it myself but thought the colour combo was great.
    AC is an elegant, understated colour, very evocative of classic GT cars of the past.

    On the Roma grill, I am kind of coming round, but I expect there will be some aftermarket alternatives being designed.

    No doubt than Novitec, Mansory or other would create this.
    If you have the original part to scan it and a 3D printer, you can create your own (just an idea) ;)
