LOL

still remember the day i brought my bugeye home. i was all juiced, but my gf just said, "you spent all that money on a fast @$# neon??"

but that new Ferrari is pretty fugly. well, not horrid, but doesn't do much for me. 355 was pretty smooth. 430 is pretty ok too. 458 is a lil awkward, but on paper, that thing is pretty sweet.

that said, as blasphemic as an AWD F-car is, biz-wise can't blame them. no one's beating down the showroom doors for sports cars or even coupes anymore. Porsche found that out. at least this pending F-car isn't as fug as the first gen Cayenne (new one's sexy tho)

^ It does seem like blasphemy for Ferrari to go with AWD, but we'll see how well that car does eventually. This new Ferrari is definitely not one of their prettier cars.

This opens them up to a WHOLE new market of people. Imagine if Ferrari offered the hatch for the price of a Porsche turbo? The Ferrari would DOMINATE sales...

Imagine if Ferrari joined the WRC with that?!??! *Gasm*

Not sure if I like it or not. It's like, it doesn't look quite "right", but it doesn't look all "bad" either. It's like... a very pretty man... or a handsome woman... I'm so confused right now.

Also, here's a quote from the article:

The FF features the company's first ever four-wheel drive system. Ferrari claims its 4RM (four-wheel drive) weighs 50% less than a conventional four-wheel drive system, maintaining a rear-biased weight distribution (53 per cent over the rear axle).

Then WHY THE HELL does it weigh just shy of 4,000 lbs?! That things is really heavy... Why?
