    Thanks, very nice.

    The next issue of Auto & Design will have a story on the the California - will be nice to see how the design concept evolved.

    Yeah, I saw it on the website of Auto & Design.
    Are you going to buy it? If you do scan the images :)

    Thnx

    Anyone happen to sit on the Stradale sketches?
    Also does anyone know who did the design?
    Thanks!

    From the web-site. Not the greatest renderings we've seen from the house of Pinin - note mismatch between fr & rr wheels on 2nd sketch.

    Car in first sketch has hints of Dino louvers on hood, adjacent to headlights. Would seem to indicate that there was some basis to all the initial Dino references for the California.

    Also on first sketch, vent behind front wheel seems to be the precursor to the final design, though this one seems nicer. Looks like a less radical re-interpretation of the Rossa show-car's vertical strake design.

    I am sorry, but that is just a kids perception of your typical cliche supercar. Ferrari is a little beyond that. You can find the actual Enzo ugly as much as you want, but there is no denying it is a very creative, well executed design.

    wait a minute, that is not entirely true, what I just said. The F50 proves me wrong.
