I can see what they were aiming for but they haven't pulled it off and instead they've made a Temu Lego version of the SP3

That’s a bit of a mess styling wise…

Yep

Thats pretty fking hideous!

Have the designers at maranello all quit in the last few years? Since I'm struggling to think what the last truly beautiful Ferrari is...

The decision to deliberately not have a 'face' on their cars isn't making them pretty.

I think I'm getting old, but I'm just not interested in this.

I'm not seeing a single styling cue from either the 1950's or 1980's Testarossa.

That front lip just looks odd.

Some weird homage to a 70s or 80s Trans Am?

The front treatment invokes images of a musical reed / duck bill / clothes peg.

None of which I'd want to be reminded of when I looked at what my vast sum of money had bought me.

I wonder when we'll see a mainstream return to an unfussy french curve derived design that eschews the hp and down force arms race in favour of aesthetics and road based fun.
