Maybe it's just me, but I think it's stunning. If I had the money, I would try to daily this beast. It's a grand touring car, not a track car like the 458, and I love it 
To the man who has been designing the new Ferarris since the 458, your doing it right. Please continue!

Looks just like the new viper.

At 1525kg...I find it to be fairly light in relation to other "supercars" being produced today. Hat's off to Ferrari.

I loved the 599 and this is no different. I also agree its a very different car than the 458 and it would be very difficult to choose between the 2. I think if I already had something like a Aston, Bentley GT, or even a high end Merc then I would get the 458 as its more of a track car twisty road kind of car. But this is more comfortable and more practical for regular use. Meh who am I kidding I want all of them but will likely never even get to drive one.

DID YOU READ THE ARTICLE? its curb weight is 3593 lbs, a 350z is 3,188lbs, an s2k is 2,864lbs, but the 350 and the s dont have 730hp to back it up, besides that its a ferrari, i think they took measures to make sure you wont feel the "heaviness" of this beast

Would be on the top of my list if I could afford it. Way better than the 458 to my senses. Front engine Ferrari's have always been my prefered style. What's not to like?

Gotta agree with you there, just a bit over 3,200 with 700+ hp is impressive. My 335 weighed 3,500 and had about 460 crank hp and it already felt fast.

ACTUAL weights are a few *hundred* pounds north of Ferrari's claimed weights for both.
