hmmm.... i feel indifferent to this car, and that is certainly a bad thing from my perspective. i was looking forward to it like most of u of cource... ferrari should be more visually engaging if i may say, and i just do not like the front. my biggest problem here is this design is different from the 599 but not necesseraly an evolution. we are just used to the 599 but in terms of looks they could have easyly been from the same generation. of cource the specs are mighty fine, but come on, noone really needs that much power. i see way more gain from the driver perspective in weight reduction, that power race is just silly! we need lighter cars!! maybe i am just very bad driver, but other then racing in controlled enviroment, the extra hp does me rarely any good especially in RWD cars (once it is north of 600 or so). just my 2 cents.
but i am sort of outraged how unexiting this car is, and i still might buy it eventually down the road...
not trying to toot my own horn here but how is a car which is a year late and looks average supposed to compete with aventador? i know i know, different crowd, etc. but still.
it will sell well, and we will all drool over it every time we see one, but it could have been sooooooo much more of a car imho.... /end rant
edit: i think what i am trying to say here is that i miss that feeling of not being able to sleep at night till i see it in the flesh.

I really like it....but I don't LOVE it. Although I trust the words of our insider that says wait to see it in person. I didn't LOVE the Aventador when I first saw pics, but when I saw it in person I was drooling over it. It's hard to live up to our expectations...

Side profile and rear look nice, front is very unoriginal and not agressive enough imo. Lunatical performance numbers, but I'm afraid the car will already look dated a few years down the road. I just can't seem to get that excited about the looks. Would absolutely drive the piss out of one despite its visual shortcomings (imo).
