    Just some thought provoking fun…..
    Performance aside
    Brand name aside
    ….are you the
    A. “work of art” “curvy, sweeping” “softer” …. lines type/fan
    B. “Hard line” “muscular/angular” “aggressive” “looks fast sitting still”…..lines type/fan
    ( I don’t mean your personal physique ) :)

    I like both, but prefer a Ferrari A over B.
    For example…it’d be a tough choice on looks alone…but out of the two cars pictured, I’d go Ferrari Roma, regardless of performance, advantages/disadvantages, price, etc…..

    just for fun….what’s your thoughts?

    Between those two specific cars?

    The Lamborghini hands down.

    Neither in red.

    Just for clarification……not trying to pick a favorite between the two cars pictured, I guess I didn’t make it clear.
    Just wondering what the forums’ likes/preferences are….curves, work of art, smooth VS hard lines, aggressive angles, looks fast when sitting still

    Aren't all Ferrari s curvy and all Lambo (after 1980s) angles
    ... And that is what makes someone like Ferrari over a lambo or the other way around

    yes….that’s the choice and question/point of the poll…What do you, what does the forum prefer? Just a fun thought provoking thread.

    The Roma looks like bean.. or somebody left a California out in the sun for too long and it melted.

    Softer and simpler seems to age better. Example: Jaguar XKE.

    Definitely curvy, clean, classic lines. Although I had posters of 328s on my boyhood walls, the Roma is the first truly beautiful Ferrari to me since those models like the Dinos/3x8s. I’m absolutely satisfied with mine!

    How about "curvy muscular"?
    i.e.: 512 Boxer.

    Curves age better than angles- few angular cars from the past still look great today (Bugatti EB110 vs Veyron, Ferrari 365 GTB Daytona vs 365 GTC/4, Lamborghini Miura vs Uracco)

    I like curvy much much better, so I misunderstood the assignment.

    Curvy ftw BUT not the Roma lol if that makes sense.

    So where does a Bertone style wedge fit in?

    I happen to love the 308 GT4.

    Muscular, yes. However, the curves became angular "bent planes" with barely softened edges.

    It is why i voted for B. The TR is definitely not for everyone. Same for a Boxer. They are for certain types of owners.
