    But Jim, she sure is ugly ... possibly the ugliest Alfa ever!

    No, it looks better than the Alfa 90 or the 75.

    Have you seen it in person? I did, and I have a very different opinion.

    Looks cool, but I think they will keep it plain black CF

    I'm sure all of you have seen the prototypes of the new car. Of all sites, Jalopnik posted a link to Ferrari's F60/Enzo prototype from 2000 today. You might find it...interesting, to say the least:

    These are well known photos of a well known prototype car that was auctioned off. What are we to find interesting about the post?

    If you think so .... I don't. I particularly like the 75.

    This car looks like a child drew it .... in crayon. But yes I have not seen it in person.

    Hopefully the 4C will be closer to the 850kg kerb weight Alfa mentioned when initially showing the concept, than the 'under 1000kg' suggested by some now.

    The 4C is perhaps the closest we'll come to a 'Dino' (for some years).

    Interesting, Ferrari has registered some patents 24 days ago as "Registered and subject to deferment(A2)". They won't be published until the car will be reaveled. In Maranello Ferrari people want to keep the secret well saved.

    For all those who may be contemplating the F70's rear end design, it appears that they have decided to go for a natural, organic design for their inspiration:

    I thought it was just wearing a thong.

    Who can blame them, both seem a very comfortable place to be.

    Unluckily the 4C will be heavier.

    Kerb weight will bit under 1000kg for euro spec and about 70-80 kg more for US spec.
