Front looks better in those pics.

As for the car, I wouldn't quite call it ugly but the exterior is not a good design. The black horizontal thing is really ugly. The cockpit is well done though.

I don't agree with your evaluation of the design but you're right about respecting the different opinions from different people...

doing neo retro is a very hard thing and I have to say this In my eyes is not a good result. the 275 hth is one of the most beautiful shapes but this one looks like a caricature of it... but I guess I need to see the car in person of it's possible to give a definitive opinion...

It has 1 too many sets of gills not to actually be breathing underwater.

Read they're going for $2.66 million each.

tec333 · 12-14-2016, 05:45 PM

One-off or very limited edition F-cars apart from a couple of exceptions always appreciate with time, so every owner who orders one has to pay the upfront cost (up to $3 Million for some) but in the end has a pretty good asset, which cannot be said for most cars!

I dont doubt it at all. I wasn't saying anything negative with that post, just stating the price. Since the 10 owners are basically Japans 10 most loyal Ferrari customers, I dont think paying 3 mill upfront is a huge deal to them.

I wonder if owners will be able to sell their cars to buyers in different countries. I think thats when resell values will skyrocket.. imagine someone from the US trying to bring it here.

The world for such exotics is very, very, small ;-)

More pics, including live ones focusing on the details of the car. The more you look at it the more impressive it is IMO. These floating rear LED lights are something else!

Definitely not a fan of this one. Ferrari had it right with the F12 design language. LaF styling looks like shit pie.

Mingwan · 12-14-2016, 09:06 PM

Front looks like a koenigsegg design, the rear reminds me of a veyron or lotus.

AW335TT · 12-14-2016, 11:28 PM

quick comparison

wuufer001 · 12-15-2016, 02:19 AM

front end somehow reminds me of the Simpsons

AW335TT · 12-23-2016, 10:21 AM

As a coupe.

KingOfJericho · 12-23-2016, 11:05 AM

Would have looked positively WICKED as a coupe!

I agree. It immediately reminded me of a 4th generation Camaro.

Pyrat 2 · 12-23-2016, 11:58 AM

Ferrari hasn't release the price and they are all sold. Let's just say on the low end these are going for $1M a piece (16+ of my M2). I'll let someone else take the depreciation hit and put in an alert for the first one that shows up at Carmax.

Definitely want one in my garage though. Oh well, since I'm not in the upper 0.1% it won't happen.

DeeteeM · 12-28-2016, 03:00 AM

Any pics with the roof on?

ridin135 · 12-28-2016, 09:45 AM

While I love Ferrari I have to say this does nothing for me. Would much rather have a standard 458. I do like the rear end though. Pictures may not be doing the car justice.
