From the I Think I Said All This Before But Here's A Pic Link Dept.:

I'm not wanting to get all foamy at the mouth like I did with the Enzo
initially, because I definitely changed my mind in that case, but this
car is looking more and more like a loser IMO.  From this angle the
metallic silver one in the back doesn't look any different than an A-M.

And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear
You shout and no one seems to hear.
And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon

I can't imagine coming to appreciate the goofy grin on this car and
nothing will ever make me feel good about the Scuderia badges slapped
on the sides of a street car, however the lines on this car don't look
as bad to me now as they did a week or two ago. At least not in this
pic.

The nose on the Enzo is still the dumbest thing I've seen on any
Italian car.

Than an Aston Martin? And that would be bad because...?

Ferrari should never feel like they have to mimic or appropriate any
kind of design idea from another supercar manufacturer.  If there's even
a hint then it's not going to end being anything memorable.  JMO.

The problem is that there are no new ideas. You can't blame Ferrari for
that.

That is most certainly true ... for sure the ones *I've* come up with
the last few years have all been crap ...

There was a time when the whole automotive world openly stole from
Ferrari/PininFarina, now F/P steal from Chevy and Mitsubishi.

I ONLY this evening connected where I've seen those goddamned flying
f.cking "no Italian worth his pasta would even think about them"
buttresses get their misbegotten line from.

No, not the cocksucking Mitsubishi Eclipse, et al., not the Z-06
which, despite its manifest influences, incorporates nothing nearly so
pretentious, but from the Acura RSX.  ...Heretofore an unassailable
piece of kit, yet now sullied only by having contributed the most
singularly loathsome aspect to Ferrari's latest pretender to the GTB
throne.

It's enough to make one cheer for Bunsen Jetson.

If you insist on gnawing at the scenery like this, you could at least
clean up after yourself. Or you could take some time and figure out
what's missing in your life that you have this sort of over the top,
emotional reaction to the sight of someone else's car.
