The real f420/430?!?!?!

[nurbrun]

I found this pic on some mexican (i think) website http://www.elenaferrari.net/fedeferraricoleccio.htm and i cant read it but it look like the "real" one

[aks]

i doubt it's real. i don't think ferrari could design something as hideous as that front bumper! :shock:

[budagboy2]

Heres another pic http://www.elenaferrari.net/magz1.jpg

[TT]

Dang, seems terribly real to me... if it's PS it's a terrific job!

[gottacatchup]

The first pic is definately a pshop i mean look at the vents and headlights there were obviously modified from a 360. The second one looks real though....

[TT]

Yes the front one seemed indeed PShopped.. but the second...

[bmagni]

its a spanish site, they captured the car in a mexican highway in tehuacan, supposedly for a photo session from maranello made for the carsa presentation... thats what happened... it looks very real to me

[5vz-fe]

I doubt it.....Ferrari will not let something like that happen.........
the rear end is fucked up ..... I think someone just photoshoped an Enzo rear end bits into the 360 as a joke

[T-Bird]

wow that looks like shit I'm sorry but if that is really the new one they didn't put much effort into designing it, the ass is straight off the Enzo and smooshed together to fit on the smaller Chassis. I am disapointed in Ferrari if this is the new one.
Also why the hell would Ferrari test a car in Mexico?

[yg60m]

Hum ! it could be real but then it's frightening !!!!!!! They would have spoiled the original which was already critizised at launch and needed some time to get used to ...

[nurbrun]

I KNOW it looks like a freaking squished Enzo :twisted:

[yg60m]

If it's the definitive shape then they try to make it look like even more to the Ferrari F156 "Sharknose".
They should really fired their designers in Pininfarina !!

[PATo355]

Fuck , they ruined the car , look at the front is simply hideous , and the back part is to fat , the grille at the back its too small

[rachaderua]

yeah..this one is also real for me...but not photoshoped the first image...both are real

[Vansquish]

I'm pretty sure that both images are real as well...kind of bittersweet though...the front end looks reasonably good I think, except for the fact that they tried to do a little too much with the "Shark-nose" look...if they smoothed off the area in the middle and made it flow into the intakes, the center part of which should not be black, but bodycolor, it would look a lot better... The rear is nice enough, but a little bit dumpy, and one of the things I loved about the 355 and 360 was that the area around the light clusters and across the back of the car could be black instead of bodycolor...here it will be significantly more difficult to make that sort of arrangement work. Not nearly as aggressive looking to my eyes.

[tifneedle208]

Yes. That front bumper makes baby Jesus cry.

[ae86_16v]

I like it, but it looks a lot like a rehash on the Modena. I thought this was suppose to be a "brand-new" car?

[SilviaEvo]

if it's PS it's a terrific job

i pray to god it is

Hope that's not how it looks - almost as ugly as the C6... ;)

[T-Bird]

well like I've been saying those C6 lights are stolen from the 360.

[JiggaStyles09]

yea the 2 oval looking things in the front bumper look kinda bad. and the tail will take a little getting used too. the headlights are not too bad though i kinda like the new arrangement, and im sure from the side it will still be a sexy shape. however im not blown away by it. i still will wait to the official unvieling to have any difinitive opinions about it.

[Vansquish]

lol...seeing the C6 next to the F430 makes the Ferrari styling seem pretty reasonable :P :D :D :D

[nejcdolinsek]

No comment... wait for the first press pics, then we'll be able to judge whether its nice or not. :|

[yg60m]

Make me think to the 512 TR --> 512 M translation, the car improved but the design lost a lot !!

[mindgam3]

Well the rear looks like the autoexpress pictures in my F430 update thread. Although the autoexpress front looks a lot more realistic than this front for the actual production model

[htfaber]

At the dutch Autoweek site they claimed the pictures to be real....

I really like the front. I always wondered whether they would use the two "nose-holes" again. It's the back end I have some trouble with....in my eyes it's a bit too bulky.

It might be really nice when the back end under the rear lights is black.......mmm

Heres another pic http://www.elenaferrari.net/magz1.jpg

Whata fuck is that? :o

[Chaos in 1983!]

I really really hope these are not real...but they certainly look very real......the back is way too busy...but I think I can live with it...the headlights are ok...but those air intakes are completely fucked up...I hope this is the work of a seriously skilled photoshopper...I will wait eagerly for the press pics...

[SFDMALEX]

Guys Im seeing a picture of a JMB 360 racer and a picture of the so called "F430" rear end. Is that JMB pic supposed to be something else?

[Chaos in 1983!]

yeah that happened to me too...just follow the link, and click on news...

[aks]

guys, these must be photoshopped! the first one looks obvious, but with the second i don't believe that ferrari would use the number plate 'FF430ME' when secretly testing their new F420/430. also, if you look left of the rear left tail-light, u can see a slightly weird line where the reflection of the light ends. seems unnatural to me and must therefore be photoshopped from an enzo. bloody good job though, but personally, i am not convinced. 8)

[Xploded]

All I can say is it looks like an enzo at the back, and if its a photoshop image its a dam good job by who ever did it. The more I look at it the more I sorta think its a photoshop to but thats just my view and what im hoping to he he :D

Any ways I will wait for press pics to ...... just hope its not the same as this.

[dingo]

I actually like the look of the car, not sure why everyone is against it.
Heres another pic taken in Mexico:

[samtek]

the second pic is awesome, fantastic ferrari!!!

[dingo]

But thats not the new one. Its a Novitec Rosso Supersport 360 with a twin-supercharger engine producing over 600hp. :D

[davide]

I really like the enzo rear lights. period!

Hum! It smells like photoshop for me!!!

[Chingachgook]

It looks horrible bt happily I'm sure (I HOPE) it won't look like this

[sikx5]

I also think it will lack compared to current design as it is perfect but it will improve technology wise...512TR---->512M as yann said.

But i trust in ferrari and im sure they will produce something super special as always. :mrgreen:

[SFDMALEX]

Nurburn can you sort this out please? I see a picture of a JMB Racer.

[Ford Capri 2.8i]

On the one hand........i agree with the person that has mentioned already that the lamps of the new Corvette C6 resembles too much to the ferrari 360 modena, on the other hand, i dont fancy too much where ferrari is aiming with the future 430 although the spy pics doesnt seem a definitive shape, and see what happens nonetheless

[dons5]

jus waitr till u see it in person, ppl were sayin the exact same thing about the ENzo when it first came out, and the 360 and the F50 and the 612 jus wait till u see it in person ur jaws will drop and its gorgeousness,

[dons5]

it seems to me that Ferrari are makin there cars even more agressive lookin lately, ppl were sayin that the 355 360 456m 550 575 and F50 while of course stunning and gorgeous didnt look really agressive, but it seems lately there gettin moe meaner and agressive while still keeping the beauty and sexiness of a Ferrari, obviosuly it started with the enzo, then the CS came out, then look at the 612 way more meaner lookin then 456m and now this baby enzo
