I just saw something like that on the freeway (I saw the Ferrari badges). But from the front it looked like a corvett,but had a small hood scoop.Might have been a kit, but who would even consider, moding a brand new Corvett? Very close to the pic you posted,but in a metal flake black.Front spoiler didnt stick out.

I thought that was a rendering done by an art student/ engineer? Brad

Cars first went to the 'jelly bean' shape on everything. Now they seem to be going to these angular 'edgy' looking cars. I dont like many of them at all...they look like aliens designed them. The C7 Corvette is butt ugly to me. Ferrari 550 Maranello is a good looking car.

I'm a fan of mid engine styled cars (I know, hard to believe that I would be on this forum), but if I were to go for a Corvette and I do like them, I would pick that style given the option.

Put that car design on anything under 30k and you'll never keep them in stock.
Absolutely awesome, especially the profile.

Nope, the automakers would frack it up with a wimpy 80hp 4-banger.

Here's an article at the British Top Gear saying sadly it's unreal - maybe ferrari needs an art student to show them how it's done. Beautiful.
http://www.topgear.com/uk/c...i-612-gto-2010-07-08 Once upon a time, ferrari used to design and build gorgeous cars. now they're just dumb-looking cartoon faced with led's from JC whitney

Close enough to justify saving $200,000. You could buy a different color for every day of the week and still have gas money for the next decade.
