Not my thing, but that's pretty sexy.

Yeah, I'm kinda past the 'car lust' phase of my life, but every once in awhile...

Awesome! Today I drive to minimize fuel consumption. Slow and easy, paying lots of attention. Anything less than 40 mpg is too much. That said, a Ferrari still gives me a massive buzz. Contradictions. I love Ferraris. No choice

Before I clicked the link or noticed the "prancing horse" I thought it was a new Corvette design.

Still pretty nice looking but not what I would hope for from Ferrari

I wouldn't mind doing a cross country road trip in that car... would take about three days, I think ;)

Agreed - it looks too much like a Corvette to be a Ferrari.

That color. What is it with you and things painted red?

Some things in life are meant / should only be red

Ferraris being a case in point

looks a bit like a throw back to the old daytona, which also looked a bit like a corvette. I still like the 458 italia better although it's a V8

The car is nice, but I'd prefer to have a Kirk painted this color (with cream panels, please, if anyone wants to get me a late Christmas present -- actually, I think I'd prefer robin's egg blue panels and cream accents).
