    I bet it won't happen in this market. Economic conditions are going to have to change, first.

    I highly doubt a picture such as that would surface if Ferrari had not authorized it or even have provided it!

    That looks to be a very finished vehicle.

    I sense that will be the replacement for the 430.

    But who really knows.

    Maybe we'll reach 500 pages in this speculation thread!

    Was thinking the same thing. I wouldn't be surprised to find out that some variants would be leaked in order to find out what opinions are.
    In all likelyhood though, the magazine had a nice photoshop done, and coming up with a convincing list of specs etc is not that difficult. They sell magazines, not truth, and a new Ferrari is good for a lot of copies.

    You guys surely can't be serious about that magazine front cover photoshop rubbish, go to post number 947 in this thread and see the real car in black with a photoshopped front bumber & spoiler which is admittedly guess work, but the rest is spot on, and yes those shots I reckon were leaked by Ferrari, this magazine cover is no where near it and certainly not leaked by Ferrari :)

    Love the F50 comment :D

    GUESS WHAT I HEARD!



    The same thing you all have - nothing. So, why are we going in circles about if it's Frankfurt or not, the F450 or not, Beanie-weenies or franks-and-beans... Who cares?

    We know it's soon etc etc...

    Since the latest batch of spy-photos nothing is new... And even after that, nothing new was "known" aside from even more speculation over what the car would look like...

    This is going to turn into "Telephone" where the Ferrari F450 will become Ford's new pick-up truck with a prancing horse on it and a rosso paint job...

    I guess I like it. I would love to see it with some wing mirrors ala Challenge Stradale.

    I will take the Azzuro Califonia to match what I have.

    This time, though, black carpets with tan upholstery.

    6 speed only.

    Because thats not the actual car, just an impression of what it may look like...and if you've ever seen the "impressions" of the 360 or 430 before they came out, then you'd know that the impressions look nothing like the actual car...

    sorry it was a joke. The "auto express" is a water mark on the photo to keep someone from ripping off the shot as there own.

    Exactly, that photo shop was done on an R8, I think the actual car will look very good.
