RE: Novitec Rosso F430
Discussion
There must be more to say about this option.I rather like it - but then again I am only 19.
But nonetheless, the kit adds more visual 'Beef' to the F430 and it now, in my eyes at least, looks like a proper, aggressive supercar than merely the default choice for those with the money that the standard car is. That said, the surfacing around the front intakes could be sharpened up to make it look less aftermarket.

Didn't like the journalism in this article much
Tell me more...?
Hmm the seats or the journalism? On reflection the seats aren't CGT, they just looked like it until I clicked on the zoomed in picture
They are similar. WRT to the journalism I find it hard to put my finger on it and I'm regretting criticising the chap now, but it just seems very amateur. Perhaps a bit of journalism from a club magazine etc. A fragment like this just doesn't read well to me, and nor does it confer a convincing driving impression :
'When you are approaching a corner at full noise and the time comes to bottle out...'
Other parts seem like barely reworded sections of press release, dripping with unlikely superlatives and tech stats. In addition, the repeated use of 'we' seems atypical of this type of journalism.
I'm not a professional editor, so I'm just doing my best to try and work out what I didn't like. Is the author a pistonheader? As I feel like I've been pressed into burying the hatchet... into his back

If it`s any consolation Dan , imo I think you did ok trying to highlight your criticism. The quoted sentence does look macho/i`m the man/ in a hairy chested way and a little out of place but I doubt if I could do better.
