    The FF is, without a doubt, "different," so I can understand the immediate negative reaction to its styling. Even so, I like it. Of course, I generally prefer quirky designs, so that's no surprise.

    The biggest issue I have with these initial photos, though, is the Rosso Corsa paint. Like other GT Ferraris, the FF will look so much better in dark, conservative colors. Imagine it in Pozzi, Rubino, Vinaccia, or (my personal choice) Canna di Fucile. Any good P-Shoppers want to take a shot at repainting this car?

    There are some great looks in the post above. I have to say, I do like this car a considerable amount more than either the 456 or the 612. So the new Ferrari 2+2 has a shooting brake roofline; I can get used to it. I give them credit for trying something new and I don't mind the overall styling of the car. Maybe I'm naive.

    Must admit that sadly no matter what the colour that frontal styling looks no better...however the intial pictures dont look Rosso Corsa to me...much too maroon.

    I think with the standard wheels......... if you've ever known or seen a early year 2K BMW zM Coupe with their RoadStar wheels. (That was the first think that came to my mind). I think if Ferrari could alter the wheels, something similar to the pic with the Challenge style (or something like the 458's.....much thinner spokes) that takes away from anything where you get the "Looks like a BMW"....... and obviously its all in the rear quarter section from a side profile.....

    It has potential, and I'm sure in-person many will change their initial view of the car. For sure its much nicer than the Panamera. (This is gonna be one of those models where color will play a big part in the car)

    I just realized how much the FF wheels resemble the CGT wheels.

    I think it's a great looking car, especially from the side, but then again, it makes some sense since I loved my BMW M Coupe, & this car bears a lot of similarities in its lines.

    This car reminds me of the modified 250 GTO known as 'The Bread Van". I saw it several times at club functions in the early 70's. I think it wrecked on one of the Malibu canyon roads, but has long since been rebuilt.
