    Come on Bob - you know you are going to like it.

    Even I like it... join the club. ;)

    I do think the headlights were a poor decision - they should have differentiated those from the rest of the herd.

    Only the name is universally awful so far, and what's in a name anyway? :D

    I like it already although its not earth shattering.
    I posted it elsewhere and it actually got some negative reactions. said theyd rather have an F50.

    I have seen it compared to the new Corvette. That's a bit off the mark, but entertaining none the less.

    Right now... I'm not convinced. But, I still dislike the looks of the P1. So far the Pagani is my favorite.

    I think the problem with the headlights is the cost of certifying them in all countries.

    I will give you a 100% chance of when the photos are released, someone on Fchat will say it looks too much like the FF.

    If that is the real name, I suggest we come up with our own. After all, there is no such thing as a "Daytona".

    It's also Spanish. Who would think that it would be anything except Italian?

    But these appear to be unique headlamps, so the cost factor is hardly a concession.

    And have you seen the P1 in person yet, or are you just judging it from photos? Wait - don't answer that here. This is the Ferrari LaFerrari thread and it is going good so far. ;)

    Will be up early tommorrow morning (western, U.S time) to officially see the finished product from Ferrari themselves...Though if this rendering is the real deal I am more than happy with the aggressive lines of it.

    Every new Ferrari models were compared to a Corvette when they came out. The F430 and 599 apparently looked like Corvette. Same story, different model.

    It seems that a front lift option would be desireable. :)

    It is the real deal - the person who released this has already confirmed it and I think it is fair to say he saw the real deal in Maranello.

    Thanx for photos!

    @OP you shouldn't open new thread with unconfirmed details. F70 thread is still active.

    So far I like it. I really want to see the rest of it. There are some thick lines in the roof that I think the mayor mentioned. Also it's not starkly different from the Enzo in the theme of the front.
