A big "Oi!" for all the boys and girls I know and a polite "good afternoon my name's MARA" for the newbies.

612 eh?

Not sure about this one yet(the yet being my right to change opinion at any given time).

550 and 360 styling with a dash of rear lights from the Enzo thrown in on this one. Colour probably doesn't do it any justice. What say you the jury?

It doesn't do it for me. Disproportionately long centre section, bland ar5e (touch of the Fiat Coupe ?), slightly cross eyed and too much of a 'smile' IMHO. The glasshouse also screams Porsche 996 to me.

On the other hand:

4Car said:
The 612 will feature a version of the Enzo Ferrari's 5748cc V12 good for 540bhp and 434lb ft of torque; 0-60mph time is 4.2 seconds and top speed 196mph

I looked again when the pic came up on the screen as I too thought "Porsche". I hope, like the Enzo, it will be something to behold when in the flesh.

By the way, West London PHers, keep your eyes peeled for a very, very special order Enzo Jan/Feb(fingers crossed).

I think it's quite nice, definitely growing on me. The front number plate is going to ruin the front though, wherever they put it.
