    After looking at the 50 odd pages of comments of the McLaren Mp4-12C vs 458 Italia in the 458 section, I've come to the conclusion that the brand images of McLaren, Ferrari, and Lamborghini can be represented with the following fashion models:

    12C: Obsessed with weight. Looks are not ugly but certainly not important. Less is more. Cold yet intelligent.

    458: Curvy and sexy yet somehow classic. A very European body that just makes you want to .... well.

    Lp-560: Outrageous yet talented. Flashy. Crazy. Life of the party. Paparazzi favorite.


    Now you know why Ferrari is my choice! :)

    Do I have it right?

    All I know is they are all three fantastic cars and I'd have a lot of fun with any one of them. The women on the other hand only leave one viable choice. That one on the left needs to eat some bacon and the one on the right needs to be eaten by bacon.

    The one on the right is Lady GaGa I'm assuming. The one on the left is an alien I'm assuming. So that leaves the 458 for me.

    The one on the left though a little shy, is the easiest to live with, a sex goddess in the bedroom and a gourmet cook in the kitchen.

    The one in the middle is hot as hell and has a really sexy voice, though she is a little temperamental and suffers from pyromania.

    The one on the right is Lady Gaga.

    It looks like she does not even know what a kitchen looks like lol!

    Pyromania in the bedroom no doubt.

    MP4 is more like the academic chick with straight A's who doesn't have big breasts or platina blonde hair, but once you take her glasses off and get to play with her, the little Italian miss popular will be long forgotten. The way I see it.

    Come on bdelp. You're one of my favorite Fchatters, but isn't this bashing getting tiresome? :)


    Ps. The skinny chick would *****slap the others down to earth again.

    Actually, if you read my posts, I've not been bashing the Mp4-12. And, in fact, this isn't bashing at all. I meant with I said: The 12 is prioritized with weight being more important than looks. It's clinical and cold yet brillant in that Ron Dennis kind of obessively compulsive mold. Wouldn't you agree?

    I look at it this way.

    If all three of these girls ran a 100 meter race, girl number 1 would win, girl nuimber 3 would be close behind, but girl number 2 is the one that I would have my eye on! :)

    The FF is also Kim Kardashian.

    You can put a lot of junk in her trunk and she seats 4.

    I thought you were going to compare the FF with Khloe Kardashian.

    Well, that's an improvement. When it came out, most would have said Rosanne Barr!:)
