Cars the look better in print

[maranellouk]

Anyone been excited by a car seen in a mag then disappointed when they've eventually seen it in the flesh?

Saw the Nissan 350Z outside my apartment a few days ago. Rear end is okay thanks to stealing the styling from the TT. The car as a whole just has no road presence. Makes a change from all the usual trucks with 22in chrome rims around here though.

The driver was convinced he was the coolest person in NYC. How I laughed

When i read an artice on the new style scooby a while back I thought it looked quite nice!

Saw one couple of weeks later and my jaw hit the floor!

My first thought was "OH MY GOD WHAT THE HELL HAVE THEY DONE TO THE LIGHTS" then I tutted and walked off!

Hate to say it, but I've never reckoned the Ferrari 550/575 photographs well.....but see one in the flesh and it's just gorgeous.

Same goes for the Pagani Zonda. Looks a bit of a mish-mash in piccies, but up close and personal you get to pick out all the amazing details. Never thought a car could be worth £300K, but this one might just be! The detailing is superb.

I know this is the opposite of the thread title, but hey.....
