I personally think the horsepower war is over...
I dont see high perfomance production vehicles coming out with horsepower figures topping the LP640, Corvette ZR1 etc... (600-700 range)

Looks more like a 430M to me but oh well...
Ferrari used to do this in the past (e.g. 512, 456, 550, etc.)

Maybe the scoops are showing Ferrari's return to the twin turbo V8!!!! Man that would be awesome.

I never get that kind of behaviour, you're driving on public roads so don't be stuck up bitch about getting your pic taken. The photos are only taken because there are enthusiasts who care about your product. You know, those guys and gals who are the ones actually buying the damn thing.

I can`t wait to see the finished product. I too wonder if it will be an all new chassis, or if it will be yet another variant of the 430.

I've heard this car is actually a mule for the new supercar...the bottom pipes look like that of the F40 with a V8TT...

Looks like those scud style pipes are not operational and the real exhaust pipes are in the center above the diffuser (veyron style)
