    Mother of God.... that looks potentially very sexy. Get some proper wheels, clean up the side mirror, etc.

    NOTICE: No side engine scoops. This would explain those strange pop up scoops we've seen on the test mule. It makes the side panels cleaner looking for sure.

    Also, it looks to me like the rear glass COULD slide down in front of the engine. There is a little bit of the Zonda going on there where the rear window meets the rear body.

    I think we are in for surprises.

    Look at the windshield line.

    I'll put it up for discussions sake.

    The obvious lack of front or rear bumpers don't detract from the overall allure. Looks to be smaller and lower dimensionally then 360/430. I'm digging it.

    Wow. I can see a very sexy GTB and GTS emerging from this body shell. A little bit of Elise and Zonda. I like it.

    Mirrors are tragic though. Let's hope they fix that.

    I fully admit to having "lotus on the brain", but the sneak peaks at the new Ferrari made me immediately think it looks like an Exige.
