    That rendering looks really nice. If that is what the car will look like, it will be a winner.

    That rear glass will have to be lost if it's going to have a retractable top. Maybe more like the 599 or Superamerica.
    I must agree that it looks a little bland to compete with the Astons or the Maseratis. Good start, lets hope it's not
    done.

    Thats not the F149 but its the

    612 SCAGLIETTI

    The new 612 Scaglietti incorporate a series of technical evolutions that reflect the Ferrari philosophy of constantly introducing innovations in each model. Most notably, the V12 flagship now boasts an electrochromic panoramic roof which covers the entire top of the cabin. This has the dual advantage of giving occupants the feeling of driving along in a drop-top whilst enjoying the comfort and safety of a coupé. However, this is no ordinary panoramic roof. It is made from electrochromic glass which can be changed at the touch of a button to adjust the levels of sunlight allowed into the cabin. The electrochromic glass solution was developed in close collaboration with Saint Gobain, a partner with whom Ferrari has most recently developed a similar highly innovative solution for the Superamerica.

    In addition to its electrochromic roof, the 612 Scaglietti also sports the aptly named SuperFast gearbox which delivers an exceptional gear-shifting time of 100 milliseconds and a reduced inertia clutch to enhance the engine's responsiveness still further. The iconic Ferrari manettino, now featured on the entire range, has also been added to the steering wheel.The 612 Scaglietti is a sumptuous, roomy two-door four-seater that's a pleasure to be aboard regardless of the driving conditions.

    Someone asked for a translation from Chinese so I did it for you. There's no information here you don't already know but at least you know there's nothing secretly being spread in China (I hate conspiracy theories). As you can see from the translation, this is NOT the real car but someone's idea of what it might look like.

    BTW: China/HK car mags are really much better than the US stuff. More detail, more through testing, more comparisons, more insider info, and less fluff I find.

    Here is the literal translation from their website http://www.bestmotoring.cn/read.php?2408


    Since this entry-model will not be named after Dino, European media have different conjectures on it’s design and the press in the U.K. published this Imaginary model of F149. As you can see in the picture the style looks very much like 599GTB, it’s dimensions are more or less the same as F430. However, no body knows if F149 will come with a 4.2L, 4.3L or a 4.7L V8 engine and will Ferrari introduce this new model in Paris Car Show.

    We do not know much about F149 as everything has been kept secret, even the testing vehicle was well camouflaged. Let’s hope F149 will bring us surprises.

    Rather than the orange being from the headlight/turn signal (ala Z4) It also looks like that could be the red paint that is reflecting slightly orangish due to the plastic covering of the camo.
