name a company that hasn’t stayed safe currently? I can think of Pagani and Koenigsegg that build cars the way they want too with no heed to what the ad guru’s are saying. Lambo... Lambo has gone safe. Ferrari still feel like it’s own entity, to me, however safe, in that they share nothing with lower cars. Maserati

hardly the point

Oddly, lazy isn’t what I would call the designers. creating a concept with no thought to engineering or government regulation, while a fun excercise, seems to be more lazy then designing a car that can be built and sold that still looks the part. Dealing with cooling needs, downforce, pedestrian safety, occupant

and the 400i, which I oddly still love

let’s all remember something. Ferrari was and has always been an engineering firm and we can thank Pininfarina, scaglietti, and the like for the bodywork, which while approved by Ferrari, was never designed by them. Breaking new ground in an era of bureacracy such as the world is now, is difficult. Look at Formula

but they have gained the pedestrian safety, headlight, taillamp, bumper, crash structures, visibility, and everything else that the governments of the world have mandated to save the earth, polar bears, and everything else that was being destroyed by the timeless beauty and noise of a classic Ferrari 250.

The last time Apple got involved with cars... not bad.

Well, Apple designs it’s phones like Mclaren designs it’s cars... Same phone, just different inners, and same chassis/engine just different exterior.

The answer is, as always, a Nissan product. Nearing 25 years of age should make it a classic, the price range gets you a SUPER clean, low mileage, or a crappy high mileage, with plenty of space to clean it up. You can mod it to death, and it will remind you of your childhood, all gitty and ish.

Thought manufacturers were finally moving away from the black textured plastic exteriors of the Aztek/Avalanche era... So much potential wasted.

agreed. Wouldn’t have anything going into savings if that was all I made.

Mike Waltrip sounds as queer as a Waltrip dollar bill

or a punch

Aston

We got the win. #gohawks

The 488 is a completely different chassis and engine from the F430 though. even if they look similar... The FF and the cali? get your glasses cleaned.

are you kidding? Ferrari has a front engine v8 and v12, and a mid engine v8TT and v12, and history of making the most beautiful cars EVER. the daytona looks nothing like the 512bb looks nothing like the 250 lusso looks nothing like the pick a ferrari! Lamborghini has had front and mid v8's, v10's, and v12's. The Miura

While I am sure there is a 3.8l V8 twin turbo’d to kingdom come and the tub is basically the “same”... I don’t hate this. I am not a fan of the 570s hood over the engine though. I wanna see the powerplant, and not through glass. I also can’t help but think the front end invites lift, though I am sure I am wrong

HAVE THEM MAKE ENGINE NOISES
