    Looks great!
    Btw,Ferrari has a very peculiar habit of showing the first factory pictures always extremely unflattering to the real product.
    They did that to 599 and 458 too...

    Best photos to date , helps to get a better perspective of the design without actually seeing it in person.

    white hides the rear wheel curvature, witch makes the rear looks bigger.

    There's a lot more interesting details visible here than the original press released photos. The front and rear details are really interesting and well done. I think the straight rear view is better than the 458.

    But I won't lie to you... Some angles still look a bit awkward. Part of that is due to it's size and length.

    Looks horrific, IMO...

    EDIT: And can they stop using tail lights that look like they're from a '53 Fairlane?

    Thanks for all the pics guys, I can't wait to see everything that comes from the Geneva show. After the world premiere last week, I thought they were going to post some new stuff on the "FF Web Special," ie. New ext/int colours w/names, more detailed interior/exterior shots, etc.. Since it never happened, I'm hoping they do that after or during Geneva, cause I'm anxious to see all the new colours as well as the names for each. Then again, I'm sure the FF's potential buyers and other current customers already know all of this information, so honestly, that's probably all that matters to Ferrari. Hopefully I can be a part of that esteemed group in the future.

    Does anyone know exactly the date/time of Ferrari's press conference at Geneva? I went to check it out on the Geneva show's website, but I couldn't find anything. Just curious. Grazie.

    Looks looks like an old honda civic hatchback had the nose of a Maserati GT grafted on it...

    Glad someone thought to put ceramic brakes on a station wagon.

    The side vent isn't my favorite, it really shows up on the white. I think in other colors it isn't bad

    Woah be it to Ferrari on making something practical, innovative and exciting in this class. They get the usual grilling on Fchat, that, for all it's talk, can't see beyond the year 1989.

    :eek: a voice of reason? No, no, it can't be heard!

    :) I agree Bob, for all the initial talk it's starting to die off and people are choking on their words. The FF smokes everything in this class big time

    Been there, saw it in flesh. Sorry for the blackberry picture.

    It looks far better that the red one from press pictures. It's quite BIG (you can sense it at first glance) and a bit disproportioned although it looks much better than the 612 when it comes to proportions front/rear.
    The front lights don't look that nice but overall the front of the car is not disturbing and well designed, I like it. The lines are complicated but really beautiful, there are so many different details in the curves of the car, probably most of those design details are also "functionnal" to some extent. I was pleasantly surprised by the fact they came out so nicely on a white car (which is not always the case for white cars, often cars look dull in this color).
    When it comes to the interior, i cannot say more than what you see in the pictures on the previous page. There is much more leg room and space behind the front seats than in a 612, but a tad less than in a Gran Turismo. Trunk seems big.

    The wheels look fantastic.

    White is my favorite color. I can't help thinking this looks like the great white whale.

    These "real life" pictures look amazing.

    I congratulate Ferrari for being brave and not plagiarising their own heritage like the majority of car makers these days.
