The other example looks a lot more Rolls-Royce to me. The brighter trim is nice. All the best, Andrew.

What's with the trend of not putting bodywork on the rears of cars? It reminds me of those awful Lamborghini tuners who would stick huge turbos and uncompacted exhaust systems on the car before doing promotional videos of "60-120 pulls" with the bumpers left off because they no longer fit. Just make it look like an unfinished project car. All the best, Andrew.
This car was designed by Oilstain Labs, who are well known for their first car, the Half 11, which is a 911 based throwback, Lemans style, kind of Frankenstein car, which was very exposed at the rear. So for this car, it makes some sense.
I think its works better on the Nilu27 than this car as the Nilu is more refined in the back. For some reason I get a British kit car/Lotus vibe from this HS-11. Not that pretty, and the bug eyes don't work on a "supercar".
I used to refer to that as “being able to see the underwear “ I Brit I worked with referred to them as “the oily bits” Show that stuff!
Good friend had the local Olds dealer in town and my dad loved the Toronado. He had a few of them. Plus the Delta 88 Royale, even a diesel version, coupe, in blue, with blue velour(?) interior. In college I drove it to Florida from Richmond Va, for Spring Break with my roommate. We got to Jacksonville on about a half tank of gas (diesel). I’d swerve back and forth to see the gas gauge move to make sure it was still working. We sold the Delta 88 diesel to a friend’s dad and he did road trips from VA into WV. Never heard if it detonated like so many others. What a big comfy car. Edit… We spotted a Toronado on our cross country trip a few days ago, good memories.

What do you all think about the new Ferrari? I find it not as good as the Roma or SP1 and 2 but still ok.
Not that great IMO. I am sure they are sold out anyway. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
That looks a lot like the FIAT show car from a few years ago. And a little Pontiac mixed in on the doors It's amazing how many new blobs we get every year that all look alike, with tiny differences.
I want to like it... I just don't. Looking at individual details in isolation, some of them are neat. The overall aesthetic though is rather unfortunate and the front end is horrible. While I'm sure the F80 is on the cutting edge of automotive engineering, the McLaren W1 is too... and that car is a masterpiece of design language by comparison. I think Ferrari need Pininfarina back. All the best, Andrew.
You guys ever think that some things are just ugly, and those who think they are not just have bad taste. Well, I think the front end on this Ferrari is UGLY!! And no 12C, just a 6C turbo. All the old men that will buy this car will not drive the wheels off it, the extreme horsepower is just for bragging rights.
The US dollar is the world's reserve currency... but its losing value everyday. I can see the multi-millionaires wanting these cars to diversify their asset portfolio and I also dont think Ferrari is putting out its best designs so as to keep pumping them out until a true competitor can get its foot into the western monopoly.
