    Private presentation will be on the 30th of January. Had a nice chat with Enrico Galliera yesterday; no option regarding the KERS (all the cars will have KERS). Had then fantastic fusili and lasagne at Mama Rosalia-- jummy:))))

    These are the similarities I could find on both 196SP and F150, as I can't find some with the 250 LM. Just my point of view of course ;)

    I was in tears when they launched the Enzo's first picture. Not out of joy I was horrified how it looked from that angle had never seen anything look that alien before and thought Ferrari had gone absolutely insane. I was just getting over the styling jump from the Testarossa to the 550. I love the Enzo and 550 now. I'm not too worried I hope they release a great 1st picture.

    I see now what you mean.
    However looking at the reflection of the bottom of the front it can not have a shark nose a-la F430. I think it will have a "big mouth" like the Italia, with maybe an F1 inspired splitter(s) in the middle, like the Enzo

    This looks like an Italia that had a love affair with an Adentadoor and frankly I hope it is far from what the new car will look like.

    I agree. The Enzo, F430 and 599 GTB press pictures were absolutely awful.

    However, the 458 Italia and F12 looked superb in their press pictures (IMO). Hopefully the trend continues.

    In theory. At least they've got two more (initial) colour options than the Model T had.

    Will their carbon lays be neat enough to have it naked? I doubt it. Hope i'm wrong but it seems attention to detail is not a priority for them as they sell them irrespecitve of level of finish.

    In this pictures it does seem there's some sort of Sharknose like opening in de nose (only the one on the left of the picture is visible).

    Anyone has news about design of the steering wheel of the F150? will be the same as the 458 and F12?

    I see what you mean but I hope it isn't the case. The F430 front hasn't aged well imho.

    Agreed. I like the F430 and also feel it's design was so hard edged it lacked some of the sensuality of the 360 and would not age as gracefully. Not intending to hijack the thread. I could have an entire discussion about this.

    I see more of this type of thing going on. Similar to the 196SP as 456-boy pointed out.

    True, but no F1 team. They're are a bit posers. The Zonda is more sharp, and pointy.

    So by that logic, every car that uses a pointy nose as a design element is now posing for some connection to Formula One?? Right... ;)

    Every time I see that car I think to myself how beautiful it is. I saw my first Pagani in Monaco in 1997. I will try to dig up the picture--it is a print and not digital.

    Love the Pagani.

    All supercars are posers cars. At least Ferrari, McLaren and Porsche ones have connections to real racing.
