360 (especially Stradale, but the car is near perfect in any of its versions) and F-GT are the most compelling designs of the era IMHO
25 yrs from now the Stradale will remain sought after, no 430/599 etc willbe however...

Gorgeous pictures, but take a look at the yellow "real" one at the Frankfurt show, not so nice...
Also, looks too much like the Lotus Evora

I was on 580 heading east this afternoon and caught up to a 612 Scaglietti being driven sedately, but still well above the 65 limit. I slowed down and paced it off the flank for a mile or two. It's a gorgeous car. Just marvelous from any angle. I didn't occur to me at the time, but now I have to question again, how can the same company improve upon the 550/575 so convincingly with the 612, but then blunder the replacement of the 430? And the machinery and technology of the 458 is fantastic, hell, all they had to do was incrementally improve the Scuderia appearance and it would have been a slam dunk, instead they end up with this hodgepodge of crazy headlights, slab sides and a turned up rump with a cabin of painted plastic bits and rejects from Battlestar Galactica sets. Aargh!

What's "F-GT" the Ford GT? That's the same era as the Carrera GT ...

Personally I feel that the F360>F430=F355>>>458 but as we any Ferrari or Porsche - the newest one will soon become the internet favorite!

That's an inspiring video, but the 458 is just plain ugly. There's just no excuse for Ferrari to fail so miserably inside and out.

You have a way with words, CGT! I'm reminded of TD in DC's deconstruction of the California (with the help of 'paint' ) here: https://rennlist.com/forums/997-foru...p-ferrari.html
