I think I prefer the Porsche RSR but this looks quite nice.

I'm not a fan of the standard 458 but that thing looks pure evil!
Excellent.

That does nothing for me at all, just looks like a kit car.

This, the elegance of the normal 458 is gone and has now been repalced by a melted-looking kit car!

+1

I though it would look more like the Challenge car with a wacking great wing on the back.

Not a looker but can't wait to hear it at LM 24hr next year

Looks good, quite a departure for Ferrari as they don't usually change the bodywork dimensions so much for their GT cars. Nice.

I may be alone here but I think it takes some styling queues from this



And that can't be a bad thing, looks ace!

Hmm - they seem to have taken their first genuinely decent styling job in years and turned it into a munter. Disappointing... frown

It's a racing car, styling is way down the list.

All true, but the purpose of a manufacturer going racing is to help sell cars. If the racing car looks like that then they might do better product placing them in films instead getmecoat
