There's only one fatal design flaw - the triple exhaust. Like seriously- it sort of cheapens a perfect car. I mean this car is really feminine and sexy and they slash some sort of trashy peircing in its face- why ruin it like that?
For the record I also can't stand Porsche's quad pipes- it looks like what a boyricer would do. Dual pipes for symmetry are fine, everything else is just ouch. JMHO.

Something new and different often is difficult to accept. That has been the case in the automotive world since they started making cars. Who would have thought that an engine that sits behind the rear axle would work as well as it has?

I love the triple Exhaut, Very F40 which is one of the best looking cars ever!!!!!
I like those front PChops way more than the real front. I know it is not innovative but it looks more natural to me. The frog look kinda bothers me. 458 froggy on the front, California froggy on the back... i dunno...
Ya, die Ferrari I don't speak any German yet I'm pretty sure I understood every word!!!
Love those shots of the engine bay and seeing that baby torque around in there. Also, anyone still wondering if PDK paddles belong on the column or the wheel?
Even the sound track... "Love is the Drug"
Thanks for posting Bi

Dimitri, those wheels reduce the elegance of the car. They may be sporty but they also look very busy.
I think the wheels look AWESOME and fit 458 very nicely.
Doesn't look like after market at all, IMO.

No doubt whatsoever

After market wheels which usually are glitzy and very prominent are bought because the styling of the car lacks something. As a result, with aftermarket wheels they first thing you notice about the car or your attention is directed at are the wheels thereby deflecting from the styling of the car.
View the two cars again and you will immediately notice that with the aftermarket wheels you immediately see them BEFORE the styling of the car. Just as they were intended to do.
I think I'd ask the Atelier service for a price for special order yellow belts. They'll be sourced from an outside supplier anyway so getting yellow won't be a problem. There are even aftermarket companies here in the UK who can remove the factory belts and refit different coloured ones to the same quality standard so Atelier should be able to do this for you if you wanted yellow.
