Anyone think the new Ferrari looks like a Corvette?

[Gradient]

Ferrari has really taken the description of "body fenders like women's thighs" to a whole new level.

[Tom]

That front end reminds me of the Mazda mad clown look. Only better. That looks completely insane.

Women's thighs and insanity. Not a bad combination.

[XR2]

Between the wind tunnel and CFD cars are approaching generic proportions. That being said the Ferrari is gorgeous. Mega Millions purchasing motivator.

I can't wait for the boys at Top Gear to go for a drive in it.
I can't wait for the boys at Top Gear USA to just go away.

I want to throw a rock at my TV everytime Top Gear USA comes on. Such a dissappointment. There absolutely HAVE to be better Americans interested in doing that show. Those buffoons all need to be dragged into the street and run over with the cars that they "test"...

It's as if the producers thought... "For whatever reason, Jersey Shore seems popular, as is The Hangover and American Idol... so lets get some random goombah, some comedian that somewhat resembles Zach Galifianakis, and a kid that looks like Clay Aiken,"

Sorry for the continued derail, but I get the idea that none of those guys, even Faust, are REAL car guys. Just listening to the Brits talk about cars it's painfully obvious that they have a REAL passion for cars. Even and probably especially James May. Captain Slow obviously really loves cars and KNOWS cars.

[Nierman]

Ok, back on track...

Automobiles have been around long enough now that any attractive design will resemble something(s) from the past. The only way to be original is to go ugly. Like the Nissan Juke.

That Ferrari is beautiful.

Anyone think the new Ferrari looks like a Corvette?

I don't even think the new Corvette looks like a Corvette!
...and they haven't in a good ~30 years or so.

[chasea]

Oh, hi there.

1956 Ferrari 250 GT Coupe Speciale

['nati Chris]

Faust may not seem to be a "real" car guy and I'm nowhere near his biggest fan but he can drive. Compare his performance to Pastrana or Block and there's no doubt he's the real deal well as far as US pilots goes.

Looks like an Austin Healey.

[Philster]

I don't see the resemblance. I guess everything in life has to move on, but I think Ferrari had it nailed a couple of years ago. The mid-engined, v-8 cars cars were cool and modern. The v-12 GT cars were beautiful and pure. Now the Italia has curves that it doesn't need. This new v-12 has too much going on. I guess I'm getting old.

As to Top Gear USA, I love it! Tanner is the best. The way these guys are mean to each other reminds me of my college buds.

[dennis]

Corvette to me. Would not turn down driving one, but I prefer the lines of an Aston Martin

[dhoff]

not in person

Pictures have never done justice...

[dhoff]

Looks like an Austin Healey.

oh god, not here, no! I hold this place to be sacred. No!!!

[Ahneida Ride Hide]

So much negativity. We should all be touchy feely happy here.

End of my sarcastic drawl. It looks like a Ferrari. Corvettes look like bastardized Ferrari's.

doesn't change that fact that both are Fugly .

[Human Epic Jolt]

are corvettes those things where the leaf springs go across the car?

[BShow]

I couldnt agree more.

I don't like the aesthetics of the front end. The headlights and brake ducts don't seem to fit the rest of the car. If somebody gave me one though, I sure would drive it.

[longlegged]

Not all front engine, rear-drive, long-hooded cars look the same.

The Ferrari looks fantastic. Corvettes look...meh.

[HorsCat]

does anyone have current info on whether ferrari does (or would) manufacture its cars with a manual transmission? i know it has served many a f1 driver well, but the thought of driving a ferrari with paddle shifters isn't one that's going to make me want to plunk the $$ down; i'd much rather save a couple hundred grand and go with lesser porsche or bimmer.
