    When this design came out, despite it's amazing engineered engine, the looks of it didn't really attach to me. I've been hearing the same remarks from somewhat a lot of people as well. But it looks like, a little bit of added modern fashion could fix things up. So here I present, a prettier 599. Hope you guys enjoy! :)

    Had you actually seen the car when it "failed to attach to you"? Have you seen a few cars in different colours and options now? Most people I know didn't like the car until they actually saw it. I don't like the wheels and after market accessories. Is that Hamman? The "added modern fashion" in the boots could make a Skoda get my attention.

    I really like it it's one of my favorit modern Ferrari's. Just the right amount of agression with smooth clean lines.

    I know what you mean. The car doesnt really appeal to me looks wise, its just lacking that something that grabs you but the interior is the business. I really like the Hamann version, it looks awesome to be honest.

    Regards,

    Matthew

    I just saw it in NYC. It certainly looks aggressive but not sleek enough or elegant. The nose really does not work for me, the way it indents has a fishy look, but I do like the back with the single lights and the interior. Certainly no Daytonna here but I guess time will be the judge of that....

    You don't like the either look? Stock and plaid version?

    I want to drive one, I want to own one, but I am not sure about it's looks. I am still partial to the 550.

    Looks great in blue especially with the light colored interior. I dunno how much I like the look of the engine compartment, that bead coat of red is a big kick of color. Black would be a little easier to handle with those softer color combos.

    Gotta love the Bullitt Mustang next to it too. Gotta love Dark Highland Green... wonder how that would look on a 599. Any green 599's so far?

    Go see the car in person. You won't recognize it from its photographs. It's entirely different in the flesh.

    Apparently Pininfarina's 3D compound curves are not well represented in 2D photos.

    When I was in South Fla, I hit the local dealership.. .while there,they mentioned they had a 599 in the back.. so of course I had to go check her out...
    I took some pics in a room with horrible lighting, I also took some video of her that I have since rewatched, and I fully believe that photos and video do NOT do this car justice! It's definitely one to be appreciated in person!

    Tina, Love it!


    ...but I've got to tell ya...if a couple of guys told my wife that they had something to show her "out in back" they'd be hearing shell casings hit the floor from my direction!
