    I'm with you on that. I kind of think that they also know they really messed this thing up big time.

    It's not well done at all. It looks like the designers were really just too tired to finish the car. For what it's worth, I'd rather have a 456.

    Saw one yesterday at The Melbourne Motorshow - looks very good in real life - not so good in photos.

    Re: Ferrari has really messed up...

    its not the styling that really bothers me (although it does some), its the idea of a four seat ferrari. I call them family ferraris....(not what a ferrari should be)

    If you were one of the execs at Ferrari you would be saying something completely different.

    pretty close... The headlights look like the new swivel/follow the road xenon HIDs. Rather than just pointing straight ahead they point to where you're going.

    Re: Ferrari has really messed up...

    I really love the look of this car....i thought it was bland at first, but now i think its beautiful. I can't wait to see one in real life.

    Also, a little off topic...does anyone know if the 420, or whatever the 360 Modena's replacement will be, will be called 'Modena' again or will it have a new name? I have heard whisperings of Mugello and a few others, but no one really seems to know.

    I think the only thing you may feel when you see this car is the Ferrari Emblem on the nose.

    Re: Ferrari has really messed up...

    After seeing various testing vidoes done by journo's www.turbo.fr, motorvision, AMS, etc. I am convinced this is an awesome car.

    Its more fun to drive than any CL, but its looks are definitely good looking.

    And the sound? Well what did you expect from a Ferrari V12?

    It should be interesting to see how the M6 stacks up against the 612?

    Should be. But just because I like the M5 doesn't mean you should push your luck with the 6 series...

    Im not talking about you nor am I asking you, it's a general question. Don't let your head get big Bilal. Anyway, the 612 is and ALWAYS will be an ugly car. PERIOD.

    Looks of a car are personal preference, lets not start a war over it. (although i doubt anyone here would say that the honday civic is better looking that the F355)
