Why do you need a huge headlight, when you use a tiny 2.5" projector? It's new, and probably the way things are going to go.

Look at that other car in the pictures, it's got the same design, but without a cover.
I see what you mean, but its still ugly. I am not the only one who feels this way. I am noy one to embrace radical change in an iconic brands design philiosophy. Ferrari better stop thinking that they will buy anything with a Ferrari emblem on it. Then again they sold Mondials back in the day

I don't like it at all, especially the rear-- it looks too bulbous.

That is all sorts of wrong. The front half of that side view made me thing 'Vetter, then the front looked kinda Aston Martin/Jag(ish), and the rear is an ugly mix of Conti. GT and GTR or something... Put it all together and I guess this is what you get? Not so sure what to think of those headlights yet.

I think its because it looks nothing like a Ferrari. I don't know, I just knlow I don't lie it at all. There is nothing about the car that I like other than the color.
