Bodykit makeover has turned a plain Jane into a bit of a looker.
Are you 6yrs old? It looks f**king awful!Hey I know, lets throw a sh*tload of carbon tat at a perfectly good 488 and market it at a tasteless Arab
.Brilliant.
Supercars are partly for fun and showing off and delivering smiles. The 4XX achieves it well.

Its awful, absolutely awful. Surely if your idea of fun was this piece of rubbish then you'd be better off in a batmobile replica? It'd get way more instagram likes.
Saw it at Goodwood. Certainly a conspicuous mode of transport. Simultaneously wearing a pink wig would do the trick.paint it in one colour (probably red) with one or two stripes up the middle of the car and downsize the rims by one size ..... voila you have something that people would salivate over if Ferrari called it the 488 Monza and presented it at Geneva as the limited (by time not build numbers) 488 track special

It's not THAT bad.
This is place is full of sheep who as soon as they see the words Mansory or Kahn go into a frenzy.
Without the number on the side with some different trim options it would look better.
Nothing to do with sheep, even though the Greeks know how to cook them properly This is place is full of sheep who as soon as they see the words Mansory or Kahn go into a frenzy.

I have been a guest of Mansory several times and they have a fine business in selling bling which appeals to certain cultures.
Taste is like hair. Many find that Trump's comb-over is poor, but it's his choice

For me personally it's way over the top but each to their own

presumably everyone who hates the styling also hates the 599xx / f12tdf / la ferrari fxxk / enzo fxx
No, because they have been developed by Ferrari's team of incredibly talented aerodynamics experts so that every scoop, winglet and bulge has a purpose.This is aesthetic, made to look like them, and has probably had very little wind tunnel work therefore is utterly s

The 4XX takes the stock 488 and makes it faster, lighter and nimbler. It is quicker to 60mph and its top speed is higher. Mansory has gone another level higher than Ferrari.

Prejudiced? Damn right I am. The 4XX takes the stock 488 and makes it faster, lighter and nimbler. It is quicker to 60mph and its top speed is higher. Mansory has gone another level higher than Ferrari.
Prejudiced for thinking that maybe, just maybe Ferrari might have more expertise and handling knowledge to design a better car than a bunch of amateurs who slap on a load of carbon and call it 'lighter'?
'Another level higher' - please do quantify that statement. So it's quicker, big whoop. I seriously doubt it handles as well if it is lowered on bigger wheels.
There are some tuning companies out there who can improve a performance car, but Mansory are all about looks first.
Have you driven it? If not I'd say you're just as prejudiced for assuming I'm wrong.
