Was reading somewhere that people thought it had a Daniella Westbrook "mono-nostril" (EVO?)

Isnt she just, I almost knocked her into the Thames a few years back at Henley by mistake...

Dont agree at all though, I think the 575M is marvellous looking.

Whats the expression? Fit for purpose...

Lovely apart from the nostril which gives it an unfortunate similarity to a supra (quell horeur!)

I think the 456/550/575 models are excellent GT style cars, understated but good-looking, flashbacks to the 365 GTB4 (Daytona) style.

I *like* the Supra......

Saw a yellow one last weekend.

Yellow is not the colour for a GT in my opinion.

The Enzo as an Engineering project is great.....as a car

If you can call that an arse. There isn't much there because so is losing weight do to the "stress" that she has to put up with.

Totally agree. Colour makes a big difference aswell. Dark blue 456s look fantastic but red ones don't look quite right. IMHO of course

I'm biased, but the top end Ferrari GTs are the best looking cars since the Alfa Stradale...

Understated maybe, but ugly, never....and silver is the best colour for these IMO even though I love red
