    If that indeed is how it will end up....I love it!!!! I loved the 355, and yes, I do think they improved on the 355 with the 360. I know many will disagree! If this is how the 430 turns out, I think it will be another good direction. Great looking ride.

    It's taking a while but that Enzo rear is really looking good to me. Still out about the new front fascia - is the grey area around the intakes CF or just plastic?

    First shown to the public at the Paris Autoshow on Sept 21.
    Cars go to customers starting first quarter 2005.

    Enjoy."

    how can this remind you of a 355 more than a 360?... its the 360 chassis and body with minor cosmetic changes to the tail end , front bumper and front lights.. the 355 is a completely different design!!!!!

    It looks like a warmed over 360...which is a style that I have just never warmed up to. Ferrari had to do something what with Lambo/Audi having 500hp in their jr car.

    I still think from a styling point of view the 360/430 is way to conservative for an exotic car. It just doesn't look exotic. The only exotic looking exotic cars are currrently coming from Lambo.

    having said all that...they are selling all they can make. The 360 area at Concourso Italiano looked like a Toyota lot.

    Wow, I really like it - Took some of my favorite parts & combined into one :

    1) I really like the TR styled mirrors!!
    2) I dig the enzo back end
    3) Nice work on the Enzo style rims
    4) Nice upgrades on the interior - Took some of the best parts of the Stradale

    Nice work!!

    :( I don't like it. I never really cared for the 360 and now they've added cues from the Enzo which I also don't really care for.

    Oh well, Lamborghini here I come.

    I like it! The headlights look a lot better than the 360's, and I, for one, like the retro look of the 1961/62 "sharknose" intakes. The Enzo look in the back end works well enough, and the interior changes are interesting.

    Someone in the other thread commented on how it looks about 65% in common with the 360. Well, that's been the trend in Ferrari's V-8 cars: they create a new design, tweak it for the next car in the series, then create another all-new design and start the cycle again. Arguably the 328 looks at least 65% like the 308, and the 355 likewise compared to the 348. That means the next model in this series will be all-new.
