Ferrari's new Testarossa
http://www.motortrend.com/news/2027-ferrari-849-testarossa-first-look-review?
Hmmm.... I doubt if I'll ever see one IRL, and it really doesn't matter what I think, really, but this view doesn't flatter...

I think it looks more like a 308 tribute, especially the front end. It’s not a Testarossa without side door strakes. Yes I’m a child of the ‘80s…

The front end is 308 below, with Daytona on the top.
The cabin reminds me of a little of a one-off P4/5 that a guy commissioned years ago at huge expense. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrari_P4/5_by_Pininfarina

Is it time for Ferrari to start making retro cars? Pay tribute to when they still made sexy cars....

The new one is ugly and I don't see why they have to keep recycling the names.
Doesn't matter, I quit Ferrari years ago so I'll never again be a customer and therefore my opinion means nada. |

If they want to do Retro, do a proper Stratos powered by Ferrari.

I could do that. It would look better if the gap was filled in, even with just a mesh grill or the classic Ferrari grid grill of many years. It would take a lot of work to not to make it worse, though.
