    The 456 is one of the best proportioned cars ever. So much so Hyundai and Peugeot attempted to steal styling cues from it.

    The 612 looks a damn site better in the steel than in photos where it looks at best awkward

    I think the 456 is one of the most beautiful modern Ferraris. Especially in blue!

    The 456 looks far better to my eyes. Very handsome. I can't believe I may actually own one soon! I have the PPI set up on Tuesday at Rifledriver's shop. It is a fairly dark metallic gray, so has to be grigio something.

    I think the 456 is more attractive than the 612, but I would not mind more rear seat leg room. The lines are more elegant on the 456.
    Pininfarina has lost something.

    456 for me as well and I'll second getting it in blue, though I prefer Blue pozzi myself.

    456 for me. Of course, I wouldn't turn down a 612 if I was given one :)

    Wow, everyone seems to prefer the 456. It's the one Ferrari design that I never really warmed up to. I don't think it's ugly or anything. I just think it's too subtle and not very exotic looking.
    I'm not a big fan of the 612, but I do like it better.

    Very surprised as to the result so far. As much as i love the 456 especially after spending over a week in one last year touring Italy. I love the 612 looks out of the two. Looks sleeker and smoother IMO.
