Ferrari 458 Italia
What do you guys think of it?
Getting some negative comments over on autoblog for example: http://www.autoblog.com/2009/07/28/vide ... ous-pipes/
Personally like it better than the 430, as well as the latest couple of Ferraris...

That interior reeks of Honda S2000. With all the controls right next to the wheel, the font of the tachometer, and the Engine Start button.

Yeah, the front looks exactly like a Lamborghini.

Re: Ferrari 458 Italia
Ive never had any particular attraction to Ferrari. Ive always been more of a Lambo guy.

Re: Ferrari 458 Italia
There's a very fine line between purity and snobbishness. Ferrari owners seem to cross it more often than not.paul34 wrote:I always found Lambo more about bling and less about purity.
Re: Ferrari 458 Italia
Yup, went to an italian car show last week and man they don't know shit about cars some of them. I'll post up my friend's pictures when they get them up. (i only had a camera phone :\)paul34 wrote:True. The owners generally don't know one way or the other. It's rare to find a purist Ferrari or Lambo owner who actually fully appreciates what they are driving.

Who needs Italian supercars when you can have British prestige?

Yeah, who needs a small sports car when you can have a large pickup truck or an enormous SUV.ElectroGhandi wrote:Who needs Italian supercars when you can have British prestige?
Seriously. It would've been more appropriate if you had posted an Aston Martin instead of a Jag sedan.

Not necessarily. You can get a pre-owned DB7 for $40,000.
