I could be just missing the obvious, but where is the air induction?

Looks like Chris Bangle's "Flame Surfacing" has migrated to Ferrari. Thank God I haven't the money to afford one of these.

You are definitely right about the CS. That car worth every penny to own.

I don't know why, but for some reason the horn buttons just strike me as really cool.

^^^^^^^^^^horns are the same place as other Ferrari's

I'm going to do my best to reserve judgement until I see one in person but that car in that video is ugly.

Originally thought it was too Enzo looking now it looks like a F'n Gallardo. WTF!


I am damn sure the car performs amazing. So this is purely a hate the looks so far statement.

^^ I was actually pointing out to my friend that it looked like a Gallardo in that video... I'm really NOT a fan of the front end of this thing.

Placement is the same, but are they all the parallelogram shape? That's what I like about them. That whole angular thing is just BA.

Funny you say angular......I heard the best description of Lambo's I've ever heard this weekend.

She said " I don't like Lambo's because they look like a whole bunch of Triangles put together wrong" TK Sept 2009

LOL... Mark, those are ellipses. I don't really mind though, as the Scud is firmly anchored into my personal "Top 5 Coolest Cars Ever" list. And on that car the round really works. The 458 is more angular inside and I think that's why it all just seems to work for me. Now I am a little sad that there are no LED indicators. Maybe when the 458 "Whatever they're going to call the fastest one" comes out...

As for the Lambo description, it definitely fits. A buddy has referred to them as "Wedge Cars" for years.
