    IMHO it lacks the lithe grace of the original.

    Can't see how that would be a convertible, unless they go back a targa.

    None of this high tech stuff,just a plain ol GTB4,ac optional.The pork products are still the same 60s genre,how about a new :classiche:,275 GTB4 how much would it cost to produce? The guys runnin the Factory have way bigger EGOS than the Man,get real,good taste is hard to find. Resale values are gonna threaten the Factory again real soon.SKYLINEs are coming!

    Well, that probably would be a violation of all passenger/pedestrian/enviroment protection regulations of the last 30 years.

    Hamster is saying it kindly. Good luck driving something like that in the real world. I hate when people put that fake big wheels look to their rendering.

    Correct. I have been told by my dealer that the first cars will not make it to Hong Kong until Q1 09. The first 430S's have still not arrived

    Very wise. Will your 149 replace your 612 or be an additional car? For me it will be an additional car. I will keep my 430S

    DM, have you specced your 430S? What color did you go for in the end?

    White with black alcantara interior, rosso alcantara seats (including centre panel - no 2 layer fabric), rosso alcantara headliner. Black alcantara with red stitching and rosso alcantara with black stitching. Black 4 point harnesses. Lots of other options that are not colour sensitive! No stripe, standard wheels and black standard calipers. No lower alcantara panels - I like the painted aluminium

    That car looks ridiculous. Wished they would follow the lines of the original and just spice it up a bit.

    Will most likely keep both. I do love the 612 and I've told my wife the F149 can be "her" car :)
