I agree that cars some 612, Maranello etc. shouldn't have that design but cars with a centermotor should. Have you ever seen an Enzo for real? For if something is breathtaking it is the Enzo. Why can't an Ferrari with F1 design NOT be beautiful?
I do not know you so don't take it personal. I think that you just can't see the beauty and wildness in the pure, real F1 design. You have to be helped a little. What do you think of the Mercedes McLaren SLR's nose?
Dear StradaleF1,
yes, I have seen an Enzo in person, several times, inside and outside
.
Yes, midengined cars should be breathtaking and outstanding (I wrote that before).
And yes, the Enzo surely is breathtaking but for me it has no beautiful design, perhaps you could describe it as raw. And as I said before, this is surely my absolutely subjective point of view (but I'm not the only one with that opinion). The Carrera GT is beautiful (also subjective).
And for me the Enzo has no F1-clues (talking about styling, NOT technology) except for that nose, that I don't like. Or can you name some? And the car misses a rear wing, it would fit the back quite well.
Concerning the SLR, I neither like its nose (don't like it at any Mecedes model), nor the car as a whole or its design. I think its design is somehow overdone, it lacks the purity and simplicity of Enzo and CGT. For me it's neither fish nor flesh, if I wanted a powerful, but luxurious GT I would head for SL65 or Bentley GT/Aston Martin DB9/575M Maranello/612 Scaglietti (and save an awful lot of money), if my goal is the ultimate sportscar, I would prefer the Carrera GT. Note: again absolutely personal!
And I don't think I have to be helped a little and no, I don't take it pesonal.
All the best,
