    Looks very blurry for it to be a real pic.

    I see a LOT of P 4/5 in that rear end.

    If you look at the rear shot of the actual car, it appears that the air intake on the Mule, which is situated over the rear wheels, is actually channeling air toward the intakes that are closer to the mid line of the car. Meaning: The vents on the mule do not take the air straight down, but more like a 60* angle toward the center of the car.

    Just a thought.

    With these blurry photos Ferrari made cool hype, like Apple used to make same effect with leaks before releasing iPhone. People start noticing things that are not there :)

    Told you I might be wrong. It could be an illusion caused by photoshop.

    I think they just follow the mule's ones and will start with just one big intake in the doors each side for radiators and engine maybe, or maybe not

    To my eye the teasers suggest a much less "industrial" or F1 look than the Enzo, with more organic lines as in recent road car designs.

    Here's my prediction. The performance of the new car will be exceptional of course, but there will be endless arguments about whether this car or the P1 or whatever is faster on which track. But the Ferrari will be far more beautiful. Situation normal.

    What are the "best elements" of Napolis car that you see on the shadowy, distorted picture of F70? Be specific.
    Nope, some people here are just blatantly kissing up to Jim, writing nonsensical speeches in an attempt to get his attention. Pretty sad.

    You think that's what Automotive press like Automobile Magazine is doing as well?

    "Fans of one-off Ferrari creations will recognize some shapes from an earlier creation, the Pininfarina P4/5–it looks like the new F70 will appear as a curvier version of that Enzo-based car, especially from the rear end."

    I saw your other posts regarding the very same tweet but tbh Jim, I'm not seeing it in these pictures. Maybe the final thing will look like your car but, as of right now, I'm not convinced. I really believe the automobile mag comment is mostly referring to the two big taillights and not so much the rear fenders as you previously pointed out and you and I both know that your car was not the first Ferrari to utilize this taillight design.

    Maybe it's just me but, judging from the 2 pictures we've seen, I'm not yet convinced that "Luca should call Jim and ask his permission to call this new car a successor to the P4/5".

    :rolleyes:

    Strange that The Editor of a Major Automotive Publication (Not Automobile) who contacted me yesterday and told me they were going to do a photographic side by side, detail by detail comparison this spring doesn't see it your way.

    I took additional research on F150 curves and decided to make my predictions how rear could look. Depending on your comments/corrections I will paint paint whole rear part so we can get as much as possible realistic render. First photo shows my scheme how I got shapes, and second is wired presentation. On this version exhaust should be positioned on center.

    I guess it's a little bit high (due to the wheels). A part from this detail, it looks perfect!

    My reference for height was Enzo.
