Has Ferrari Lost It's Luster?

Ferrari is no longer cars for the enthusiasts. They are gaudy fashion statements for the tech entrepreneur and designer hand bag crowd.

I remember years back i wanted to upgrade my wardrobe so i went to a mall, I wanted a look that was sharp, tasteful, and simple. All I could find in these designer outlets were clothes that were flamboyant, gaudy, and obnoxious looking.

I feel like Ferrari is going in that direction. Be as obnoxious looking as possible to get as much attention as possible. Doesn't have to look good as long is it gets attention. I hear all of the journalists use the word "striking"

 

So Ferrari is the new Lambo?

 

Pretty much. Or at least they are trying to be. Numbers aside, I feel like Pagani went the direction Ferrari could and should have gone. Classy, elegant cars, with an extreme attention to detail, that just ooze passion. Art on wheels. Timeless.

Instead we get an ugly mashup of Tron and Legos.

 

Another take on the topic.

 

Well their design is going in that direction. I’ve said that for some time on here.

 

Apt description.

This is why I want Ferrari to bring back Pininfarina. Whatever PF's shortcomings, and they certainly don't knock everything out of the park, I don't think I'd be describing the cars as an ugly mashup of Tron and Legos.
