Ferrari 458 Italia revealed

[Galaxy]

I guess I am the only one who does not fancy the headlights. The rest of the Italia looks fine. The specs are remarkable.

The colored inserts look better imo.

[MrH]

Everything about that car is wrong, IMO. It's got lines all over the place, and IMO it has the proportions of a muscle car.

 I'd hope that's sarcasm, but sadly, I don't think it is.

Squat, short greenhouse, extravagantly long front end.

No shit.

[2o6]

I just don't like the 599, ok?

[Eye of the Tiger]

I just don't like the 599, ok?

You are wrong.

[565]

No shit.

Most overrated looking car of all time.

Looks like a more feminine version of a Datsun Z.  Nothing special.

Oh, you're talking about the 599.  I thought you were talking about the Italia at first.

I still disagree, but not as much.

Those qualities aren't inherent to muscle cars by any means.

They used to sell kits to convert your Z to a GTO. I think it makes the car look worse.

I think that a lot of old Ferraris are ugly.

Looks like a more feminine version of a Datsun Z Ferrari E-type.  Nothing special.

The GTO, 2000GT, and E-Type were all released before the Datsun.

And Nissan was the only one that got it right.

[Tave]

Does it bother you that you're going to hell?

[Cookie Monster]

Does it bother you that you're going to hell?

Honestly I think the Z does look better.

[Tave]

I don't give a shit.

[280Z Turbo]

Does it bother you that you're going to hell?

The E-type is a phallic, blob-like car. Kind of like a Taurus:



It's like the body doesn't even fit right on the frame!

[Cookie Monster]

I don't give a shit.

Then why do you give a shit that 280 thinks the Z looks better?

[Tave]

Then why do you give a shit that 280 thinks the Z looks better?

I don't. I just wanted to tease him, and it gave me an opportunity to post E-Type pictures. We can never have enough E-Type pictures.

[Cookie Monster]

I don't. I just wanted to tease him, and it gave me an opportunity to post E-Type pictures. We can never have enough E-Type pictures.

Oh.

I've had enough of the E-Type pictures. How about some Z pictures?

For that, you are going to ChrisV class.

I'm so fucking glad that the closest most of you get to an automotive design class is reading about it in a college handbook. 

Musclecar proportions? Might as well say a panda and penguin are the same thing and look the same because they both start with P and have similar colors...

Congratulations! You are better than us.

Congratulations! You are better than us. 

Maybe not me, but with your taste, you for sure.

He's right.  You have no idea what muscle car proportions are if you think the 599 has them.

I am so glad that you posted right after me.

Squat, short greenhouse, extravagantly long front end.

And those are the exact proportions that front engined sports and GT cars have had since, like, forever.

One please.

Hahahah! A coincidence. I literally haven't looked at this site in just over a week. I've been gone on vacation for a week, getting ready for surgery on Wednesday. Visited Fallingwater in southwestern PA. Come back, 'cause it's my birthday today, check in to see if anything's new, and realize that it's not my meds, but reading moronic tripe from people that have no clue that's my real problem. It just boggles the mind the sort of stupidity that flows from some people's fingers...

And you didn't visit me in Pittsburgh...

I'm hurt.
