    What is your opinion on the air ducts on ferraris?......should they add more or less?...any opinions are great! I prefer the way it is...the enzo seems to have about i counted 14 air scoops. that includes the hood...front facia..rear...sides...and is there any under the car?....

    I once counted ducts of an F40... ran out of time :D

    I love NACA ducts, bring them back!

    What counts as an air duct?
    Does the air intakes for brake ducting air hose count?
    Do air inlets for the radiators count?
    What about the underbody air inlets?
    What about air outlets?
    Are you going to count the challenge grill as 1 or 398?
    What about the slats abofe the engine?
    What about the heater inlet?
    What about the breathing ducts to allow the inner chassis to dry?

    i meant FUNCTIONAL air ducts...lol..unlike them ricers. (no offense) Brake cooling counts as a function....slats to vent any hot air out is function...radiator inlet is a function....

    Yep as Willis said Ferrari should have just as many as required and no more. Saying that the 612 would look a little more exciting with a functional scope or exit on the great big long (did I say long) side.

    Yes Pete don't you think that the 612 would look much better with a 456 side treatment?
