Default Ferrari 612 GTO Concept









Yeah, it's just a drawing. But to my eyes it's a step in the right direction for Ferrari who has made some major design mis-steps as of late. Can't wait to see it built...hope it makes it that far.

EDIT --> THIS IS NOT A REAL FERRARI CONCEPT.

(but it should be)

Looks good.

Has anyone else noticed that the white lettering on the tires is making a comeback?

Looks cool, but aside from the Ferrari logo I would never guess that it's a Ferrari.

I really like the 458 Italia. Futuristic but not overly so.
This looks more old school...

But I know its just a rendering so hope they fix it so I can buy it! (A poster, that is)

Replace "Ferrari" with "Ford" and they could claim it was the new Cobra Daytona. Not bad looking either way but nothing that says looking forward to me.

I think Ferrari understands and is encouraging the American look -- why else would they put GOODYEAR EAGLES in white lettering on the wheels?

Definitely a departure from the 458, but I think carmakers should have some design diversity...and as long as it's moving away from the FF I'm all for it.

Apparently it's not an official concept - http://www.topgear.com/uk/car-news/f...gto-2010-07-08 or http://www.beautifullife.info/automo...2-gto-concept/
