guys its not even a Ferrari design, ts called Concept 2008 by designer Luca Serafini:
(PS: I LOVE the wheels !!)
from Luca Serafini) Ferrari concept 2008
After two year from Embolado concept: a new one.
Feeling the need to replace the 430, i started looking closer the classic Ferrari models. It was important for me to reach in the new concept a path through the past.
Harmony and Proportions.
New kind of modern shapes to feel ancient emotions. Something that is a little bit away from Ferrari design philosophy during these years. I tried to suggest the real Ferrari mood. I'm looking for a stage with AliasStudioTools to draw and mill a scaled model (1:4).
The design process is always the same.
Brainstorming - sketches - modelling - concept
Many people are good to follow and teach it. But less to finish it with success.

Well, apparently the rumors are true. A modest exterior style change ala Porsche.
What Ferrari does not understand is it is one thing to pay less than a $100,000 for a car with minor cosmetic changes and looks like other models but spending close to $300,000 is an entirely different dynamic which requires uniqueness.
Hell, even Porsche recognize this when they came out with the Carrera GT. It bears no resemblence to other Porsche models.

This is SOOOOOOOOO semi-amatuer photoshoped.
It's blurry ... the front end and the wheels are out of proportion ... and I can see the airbrush blending line after they used the "grow" and "liquify" tool lines. They couldn't even get the color correct or duplicate the shine.
It looks suspisciously close to the one off SP1 created under the
Atelier programme. The only real difference I can spot is that the
lower section of the front air intake has been painted in Misha's pic and the inner edge of the intake has a reverse slope angle. Could it be another Atelier design?

yeah i was going to mention this looks just like that one off F430 which i always found has a way better bumper than the F430!!
This is not the F450 though... And the above renderings are merely some artists impression

Rossi , a friend send me this pic. as a F450 .Nice friend .
Does your friend happened to be Dimitri from Lebonan ? He was the one that exposed F430 first on the web.

Happy Driving
looool ron... you still remember this.. 5 years ago...time flies!
im starting to feel the pressure.. rennteam family is expecting me to get pictures of the new 450.. already working on it ron..
Autocar seems to agree with Rossi that it is going to be a stunning new design. The only thing that crossed me is the demise of the F1 transmission. The double clutch unit may be smoother but I doubt it will be as fast or as brutal as the F1.
