    Looks like they distorted the front view with a fisheye style lens.
    Makes the front scoop look entirely different. also we can see the bumper cutlines now instead of the washed out teaser photo. Also seems to have a 458-like center front portion that opens out into a wide mouth. the way the light shines on that portion seems to be rounded a bit. I really think I have an excellent idea of how this car is going to look.

    I might be wrong but I think that is the view from the cockpit of the car and towards the front bonnet.

    I agree. The view looking forward from near the roof. The asymmetry in the foreground is the outline of the dash.

    I think it may be looking over the roof itself from above the top of the rear glass hatch. The fuzzy line at the bottom is some kind of hazy reflection of the vents in the engine cover.

    Or, it could be looking over the roof toward the rear of the car?

    Thats what I was thinking since the front scoop looks like that. Only its distorted. Unless the view from the cockpit has the same kind of scoop pointing backwards, which is unlikely. I still think its from the front but at a lower angle. If it was the cockpit, you wouldnt be able to see the scoop.

    I believe that the front bonnet has an air outlet, not an inlet.
    On the other hand it could be depicting the rear hunches...

    This must be the most exciting car launch ever. Ferrari has had us all on our toes for aeons and not a single picture has been leaked all this time! If I were LdM, I would give my Marketing Director a hefty bonus after this one!!!

    It has to be an inlet. Its pointing forwards as you can see in the teaser pic of the front.
    ALso it is 100% certainly not the rear of the car.

    Thanks.
    It seems to be shaped like the front. Are there any other pieces?

    I really think its another front view. Look at Enzo through the fisheye lens:

    Almost positive its looking over the roof toward the rear of the car. Look at the earlier teaser photos of the rear. That shape matches the channel down the middle of the double hump roof, and also the shape of the rear fender tops.

    Cant be that though. Its integrated into the fenders at a shallow angle. Has to be the front.
    If it were a view over the roof, the angle would be much steeper as well as you couldnt see the top back from that view. Also the fenders would be more obscured by the cockpit shape itself. Certain this is the front.

    I think it already had fisheye effect. You might try flattening the image a bit.
