    That's just a computer rendering, not a photo. The F430 replacement won't look anything like that.

    Thanks Sparky. I am in AP Art at my highschool. Unfortunately all the art classes avail. to me do not allow the time to do a detailed study of this type of organic rendering. I would love to take a course that specifically delt with automotive design. but that would be on a college level.

    I am really interested in Real Estate development after wanting to be an architect. I think it is the vocation that would best suit my aspirations and desires. (allowing me to design and or have designs commission whilst earning significantly more than an architect. As well as controlling the direction of a project/area. Ilike it cause it envolves being in charge of the big picture)

    I need to be able to pay for all those Ferrari's I want after all.=)

    I must say, you sound like you have a really good head on your shoulders.

    My training was in art(commercial), moved on to photography and after that my career took a whole new avenue.

    I won't go into details as no one really cares, but set your sights and follow them. I set mine and was able to retire at the ripe old age of 37.

    Cool drawings. I see you are 18. If your true interest is Architecture, study to be an architect, and at the same time do some basic business and accountancy courses.

    I left school at 17 and worked myself with small business, then importing cars and then getting into development. This way you learn the street smarts ways by making mistakes that cost you money and time, but doing it again I would go to college. A degree, connections, impress bank managers with your qualifications, and have an idea of what you are doing from the start instead of learning from many mistakes. If you involve yourself in some form of business through jobs you will combine the street smarts side with the benefits of education and you will be more successful more quickly. A builder developer who is a trained architect would be in a position manage projects professionally from the start, and if later you can design your own buildings then you can really put your own stamp out there. And at college there are GIRLS GIRLS and GIRLS. On sites there are MEN looking at pictures of GIRLS. :)

    ... what he said. Car magazines place photoshopped pictures of sought after new cars all the time to boost their sales. As I said, look in the other thread, there are photos of the real car WITHOUT any disguise.

    Hahaha you have alot of good points. Yes girls are captivating =) but the guys on the sites have there positives. lol I enjoy you guys chiming in on your experiences and choices. It is in a sense a type of education because you all work in, have lived through, struggle with these situations already. It provides insight that text books do not. I am looking forward to college but am trying to find out how to most effectively get to where I want to be. I do not know if that would come from working for a developer as well as going to school. I have talked to a few developers and have concluded there is no one way to become one. (there are many Fchatters, I have noticed, that list their occupation as Developer) We'll see how things progress.

    I call these magazine computer renderings "photos," because that is how they are portrayed, and see nothing wrong with that. Care to upload a picture/photo/computer rendering of the true F500 to show us exactly what it will look like (in this thread, not vaguely referring to a different thread)?

    I was duped by C&D, and can't wait to see what it will really look like.

    I like this challenge. How come everyone knows everything except what's correct?

    Why would C & D take the chance of looking stupid by publishing a photo that would not materialize into a functional car? Don't you think that Ferrai is now leaking photos to create a market for buyers? You really think that 430 spied in Sweden with the driver flipping off the camera folks is a 430 replacement? That's a diversion, dude.

    Please though get back to us as soon as you can. We are all certainly hanging on baited breath.

    It's by far the biggest thread here in the forum. http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/news/autoexpressnews/234840/ferrari_f450.html

    Yes, it is a big thread here in the F-Chat forum... a thread with many different computer renderings/photos/hand drawings/disguised concept cars, etc.- ALL claiming to be the replacement for the F430. I was just wondering which of the many 'photos' in that thread was the TRUE F430 replacement? That is why I asked someone to post the "one" photo which is the TRUE Ferrari F430 replacement (since they can't all be the replacement).

    I also enjoyed your url to a website other than that thread.

    So again (because we have too many to choose from) I ask... Please, someone upload the one and only picture/photo/computer rendering of "the" TRUE F500 (or F430 replacement) to show us exactly what it will look like (and again, I ask... in THIS thread, not vaguely referring to a different thread ie. url).

    Let's see the replacement right here in this thread. Hit the 'manage attachments' button, and upload that one and only rendering, please. Thank you.

    Nobody on FChat has a photo of the completed car. Neither does anyone at Car and Driver. Time will tell...

    Perhaps the most accurate statement in this thread!

    Uh, what more do you want? The link to Autoexpress shows a photo of 80% of the undisguised car, just without front and rear bumpers. Everything more than that is just guessing.
