    I actually came here looking for new info or pictures - this one has me a bit stumped. Despite Ferrari have shown the chassis, not much else to go by.

    The article say that will be not unveiled at Detroit Motorshow. Reasons are three. Marketing, Technical and historical. The source is a person of Ferrari, say the article.

    They may change their minds when Detroit wins the World Series.

    I never believed it to be unveiled at Detroit. They were just teasing their biggest market.

    Although I'm sure there will be historical significance in regards to the chosen date of this car's unveiling, this is such a politically correct and Italian press answer that I almost just choked on my omelette from laughter.

    This was the work of a student in the Ferrari Design Competition 2 years ago.
    Has nothing to do with the Enzo replacement.

    I know, it's the 'F80' by Jae Han Song, from the College for Creative Studies, Detroit, and was proposed at the Ferrari design contest 2011 where Ferrari was looking for inspiration to their next designs.

    As of that I believe it may have more than nothing to do with the enzo replacement.

    It did not win, but looking at it I could not help but find similarities with the front and back of the mule, at least more than any of the other design's proposals judged by LdM and Flavio Manzoni.

    Of course the tandem position of the occupants is not likely to be reproduced anytime soon.

    correct,while Jae Han's entry didn't place in the top 3,CCS was in the top 8 schools out of the original 50.
    And the only school in North America to place in the top 8. :)

    Those front lights keep going way past the camouflage.

    They're gonna be massive!
