Thunderbird? Ferrari's have always had those kind of grills back in the day. The egg crate kind. Look at the Rossa concept. Looking at those, the 550 reminds me of a Toyota Supra... Great looking car, but something's missing... The best looking Ferrari of the newer models is the F355 IMHO. | ||

Thank god the 'artists' rendition of the 550 and the real car have nothing to do w/ each other; that drawing is ghastly, looks like a bloated hartop thunderbird, retro thing. | ||

Newier Ferraris look great to me. In fact they are the best looking cars on Earth... But look at some early drawings from Pininfarina. Something tells me they got it right the first time... IMHO the shapes and styles in the drawings look better than the actual cars... take a look... 456 drawings.... http://www.ferrarina.com/456/img/Design01_480.JPG http://www.ferrarina.com/456/img/Design02_480.JPG http://www.ferrarina.com/456M/img/Design05_480.JPG http://www.ferrarina.com/456M/img/Design04_480.JPG And a real 456GT http://www.ferrarina.com/456M/img/Design01_480.JPG IMHO they got it right with the 456, but I really like the hood on that drawing with the red one... The 360 drawing... http://www.ferrarina.com/360Modena/img/Design01_480.JPG http://www.ferrarina.com/360Modena/img/Design02_480.JPG I love those tail lights!

But still I like the way the 360 in the drawing... umm.. flows... The Maranello... http://www.ferrarina.com/550Maranello/img/Design08_480.JPG http://www.ferrarina.com/550Maranello/img/Design09_480.JPG And the real 550... http://www.ferrarina.com/550Maranello/img/Design04_480.JPG 575M... http://www.ferrarina.com/575M/img/Design07_480.JPG Am I crazy?
