355 F8 Tributo

what elements look like a 355..? all I see is a 488 with a new body kit..

its very nice.. but I don't see anything in relation to the older cars..?

 

I agree that it looks great. Also don't see any throwback styling nods other than the quad tail lights (which they've been going back and forth on for years), which is probably my least favorite styling aspect at initial glance.

 

Looks like the new corvette to me

 

Its just another 458 with a big ugly vent on the hips and a bit of window dressing.

 

I like it. Hopefully I can pick one up after depreciation in 15 years.

It's another re-bodied 458. Ferrari is trying to milk all they can before actually creating an entire new car which has not been done (V8) since the release of the 458

 

It's this direction - which is shared by virtually all of the modern manufacturers - that helped me realize I wanted another 355.

 

Exactly. looks like they are entering the zone of "generic exotic car"

Much like the Honda Accord, Camry, Maxima do

Nothing original here, NEXT

 

I personally love it.

Agreed.

There's nothing inherently wrong about the design as it's pleasing to the eye. But substitute a "Corvette" script for the cavallino in the rear view, and it'd look like how I'd expect the upcoming C8 to look. Ferrari design should be cutting edge and less derivative.

 

488 got a nose job. And a butt lift.

 

Me too.

 

Interesting site. You can slid the white dots across the pictures and see a comparison between 488 and F8.

Also the performance improvements in a road conetxt are marginal to irrelevant.
Front end is nicer, the rear is interesting because ferrari is now looking lambo.

Nothing here thats new or orgional.

Tough crowd
I like it, nothing wrong with evolving a design, after all the 355 is an evolution of the 348 chassis...
The back end looks much more “Ferrari” than the 488 IMO.
Though I must admit I wasn’t expecting such an incremental change for the 488 replacement.

 

This is the 488 replacement? Wow - riding the same platform for 3 versions now. Wonder when they will create a new V8?

 

I'd get one and paint it like this, that would be cool

Agree with most of the posts here. 458 version 3.

I know they're talking about the rear window louvers as if they're great, but to me, that's the biggest design flaw. The 360 and all cars since fixed a big design flaw with the old cars moving to a solid rear window so that you could drive in the rain or park in the rain and not worry about water getting down into the plugs. I can understand this on a race variant version CS, Scud, etc, but doesn't fly on the street car.

 

I guess this is what happens when Pininfarina is no longer in the picture. Lots of bold, not enough beauty.
