    "Red Stratos" was the first thought I had too.

    True, so very true! Then again, even the original Stratos had a Ferrari engine. ;)

    If the Enzo replacement looked like dog poo and vomit shrunk wrapped in clear plastic, Ferrari would still sell every single one for as much as they like. As long of course the badge was clearly visible.

    Has Lancia actually got anything to do with this 430 Ferrari wearing a Stratos silhouette design. I do not believe so, and anyway only 1 will be made: http://www.new-stratos.com/en/#/article/a15, as Ferrari's CEO forbid Pininfarina to make any more.

    Holy crap, am I really the only one who thinks this looks stunning and exotic? Is something wrong with me? Have I concussed one too many times?

    Wheeew.

    Carbon, Thank God you stepped up and said something as I was too embarrassed . I'm not thrilled on the front end, but I think the rest is awesome. If I wasn't so lazy I'de clone a version of the front end we've seen from Ferrari onto it and it might look killer.

    Fiat has had controlling interest in Ferrari and Lancia since 1969 . . .

    Yes! To me it looks very US and not at all European or Ferrari.
