It's made by science again. Even the designers for the 458 said the got lucky when they made it. Ferrari is going away from first making the car look good and then trying to make it aerodynamic etc.

I remember Top Gear saying, the designers know they got lucky, it was chance that the science made the 458 look so good.

As for the lines, the lines are there for air slow. Would I say its the nicest looking car? No. Would I say it's ugly? No. Would I shy away from someone giving me one? NO!

I've got to say... Doesn't look to ugly to me:

i wouldn't kick her out of bed...........

... oh wait, wrong thread

call me crazy but I actually prefer the F12 look over the 458...I love the muscular look the F12 has over the 458. From certain angles the 458 is beautiful but I sometimes see it at certain angles and it's "ehh". Probably just me though. I'd take an F12 over a 458 any day if it were just for that V12 that we won't see in production cars going forward.

I'll wait for the XX version

....from a purely looks stand point, I hate it. Really hate it. It's a huge flop. It's not just ugly to me, it's pointless and just goofy looking. The lines just don't make any sense together, and it comes out looking all squishy looking. I really don't like it at all. I would trade it in for a Lambo in a second, or the other one.....

....now to end on a positive, the 458 Italia is the best looking car I've EVER seen. And that doesn't come lightly from a long time Lamborghini fanatic like myself. There has never been a Ferrari that looked better to me than the competing Lambo, not by a long shot. But the Italia changed all that. The Italia is every best Ferrari characteristic all in one car, with none of the bad. It's every positive adjective you can use describing a car, and there is no other car I've ever seen that can say that. I could go on and on about the 458 Italia, something I never thought I'd ever say about a Ferrari.

458 Italia = Everything

I agree with you completely! Absolutely love the look of the 458, but hate the look of the F12. I would take an Aventador over the F12 anyday.

Seems like all the young whippersnappers hate the old FR layout. I love the F12. Reminds me of the 550/575 on steroids.

The only thing I don't like about the F12 is the looks. I don't mind the FR layout or the awesome V12. To be fair though, I'd probably take the Aventador over any other car :roflpuke2:
