651 BHP - not lacking power I see smokin

It's not a looker and I hope it's got some gizmo features that makes it seem more impressive perhaps the interior ???

Maybe now Ferrari can focus on a potent super sports car the size of an MX-5.
Presumably the next Ferrari will be the 458 Spider.

If this actually get's built, it will be horrific. Ferrari is selling out just as my blog post will discuss in the coming weeks: www.mycarheaven.com

The car get's 1/10 for looks. Sorry it is a pig.
I love it, if I had the money and was considering a Rapide, I may well up my budget and jump into an FF.
yes Seconded. Rapide is dull and indicative of a manufacturer who found a vein of form and beat it to death. Don't get me wrong, Vantage and Vanquish look great, DB9 is ok but DB7 Vantage was better (IMO...don't lynch me!) and Rapide is now boring.

Not too keen on the front. Looks like a 458 and California (both good-looking cars) have crash. Looks great from the rear though, love it.

I assure you that if a 458 and a California had a crash then it wouldn't look that tidy!!!

Followed by 5.99 facelift / replacement and then California facelift / replacement

I'm sorry, I seem to be going totally against the grain here but I fking LOVE that!Just wow!

The Z3M Coupe is one of my favourite ever looking cars and the short arse/long bonnet look will get me everytime. I think only the name is letting it down rather a lot, not really what I'd expect from Ferrari but the rest is ace!

I like it though I prefer Vandenbrink Design's take on a 612 Shooting Brake.

Also I mentioned that Ferrari were going to have a Shooting Brake at Geneva in an earlier topic.

I kicked off a discussion on this in The Lounge this morning. I've never liked Ferraris, never aspired to own one, really couldn't ever contemplate it. Until now. I love this. For me it has everything I need from a car. I'm getting one for the school run.

Though my stupid iPhone has rated it 5, mods please alter this to ten. I'm very cross.

Well, I've learnt something today. Not about Ferrari, but about suspension.

Been around for a good few years now. Keep the fact it's American under your hat.

It's unbalanced, it's nasty. If they can't produce a 4-seater that confirms to modern-day requirements/regulations they should just drop the 4-seater line.

And that's all I have to say.

I thought this was a joke. By one of you guys mucking about with photoshop! It's a pig, especially after the fantastic 458.
