    I think it is the back of the car looking forward and taken with a wide angle lens - the dark area above being parts they have blacked out.

    I think this is a good possibility. It was my first guess. That shape looks like the roof. If it were driver's POV shot, I would expect the fenders to appear much taller. It could be possibly be a very low angle shot looking up the nose, like that fisheye Enzo pic, but I don't think that matches the official teaser photo at all. The reason I think it may be looking backward is I expected (still expect) very large exits behind the front fenders which would likely be visible in this view, if it were looking forward.

    ETA - looking at the pic again, it could be looking front or back, based on the teaser. I'm leaning back toward my original guess that it is looking forward, because a roof scoop would have been more obvious on the mule. An outlet or periscope would be easier to mask with camo.

    It was a very odd preview, when you walked out they were waiting with this device.

    Ferrari’s new limited edition special series car receives its world unveiling at the Geneva International Motor Show on Tuesday, March 5th next. This leaves just a few days to go before all the details of a model generating a huge sense of anticipation, are revealed. From today, however, enthusiasts can find intriguing hints at what lies in store from Ferrari at Geneva, by keeping a daily eye on the Maranello marque’s website and official Facebook pages.

    Exactly! And I was thinking they were sworn to secrecy as only the Italians could pull off.

    Alfa seems like the likely marque... If that's it. That would be fantastic.

    I have a feeling that the front will take time to get used too like most new Ferrari and the rear will be spectacular.

    We discussed them earlier in the thread - there were some elements that were close, but overall it is not correct. He produced an updated version with changes to the nose - not sure if it is any better?

    Ok, sorry guys. Just wanted to have a confirmation as a friend of mine said those renders were very close to the production model.

    This is really ugly mate. Oh well, I guess that's not an issue if beats the P1 to 300 km/h. ;)

    Hopefully we can get all these bad images out of our heads with next week's reveal.

    A lot of people will, if they dare, look back at this thread and have a few laughs.

    I just hope that we are laughing because the car is much better looking than some of the speculative renderings....
