    It does look much better than the 488... but just like many of us said, its just a restyling.

    I like that they are going to a new headlight configuration without the row of LED's on the top. I noticed that on the Monza and hoped it would migrate to the regular line of cars, because I never liked the looks of the LED's.

    The name seems fitting to me, as it is a tribute to the long line of mid-engine V8's, and the last of the breed. Now that I've seen it, I believe Ferrari will sell as many of them as they can make.

    In Italy we use Tributo more for taxation purposes.

    Ah, tribute does not have that connotation in English at all. It's more about honoring something.

    Yes. Ferrari should have just called it F8, it was enough to define it.

    Reading letter and number "in one go" sounds nice in english ("Fate") but dirty in italian... :D

    Anyway, I like it. A matte/satin silver would make it look even better. Can't wait to see one in the flesh (the only way to actually and properly appreciate the design).

    Now are we 100% sure the spotted black covered car with horizontal lights was BB?

    F8’s an important lesson in not to restyle TWICE
