WTF?

This car looks weird. The wheel coverings in the front makes it look terrible. The back looks a bit like an Audi TT (I think that's the car...) and the bar over the seats ruin the otherwise semi-good looks.

Overall appearance: 3.5/10

i like it as well, its got lots of character
i'm sure if you paint it that silver/blue-ish titanium color you see on 360s a lot, it will be quite a sight.

Thats a very good description. I love its looks. I usually dont like Italian cars, but this is awesome. Im not a big fan of 4 cylinder engines, but with an aluminum frame, it should fly. The only thing i think looks wierd is its lack of a windshield.

This car reminds me of the renault spider, obviously made by renault, can't remember the year but must have been around '96 or so. Very similar macro shape but quite different at the back...very similar concept though. The renault was a little slower though maybe 6.4 to 60mph or thereabouts. I think it looks quite tough for a little car.

This car is SEXY and aggressive.I dont like the bar over the seats also but I hope if they make it u will be able to take off the fenders like in the pic so u can change it up every couple day.

It's already being made (or planned, definitely) It's not going to be a Ferrari, it will be badged Pininfarina. And the fenders DO come off. that's what the lines along the car are for

NOT BAD~ The design was not the friendliest sight at first...seemed a little too much for me, but as I look at it more and more, it looks pretty nice.
Thanks for the pic

not a supercar, even being made by pinifarina studio....i would say this is just one more new sports car that we see. And even being made only 75 models, it doesn´t worth what it would cost, i guess too much money...for a 4 cilynder, 190 hp? just weird

a stupid project and very bad worked by pinifarina, wich has already done great supercars that we still love nowadays and forever. :x

I totally fail to see what this offers over the lotus elise on which its based. Ok, its exclusive, but that alone won't justify the high price. Its looking like it will cost over double the elise price (in the uk at least..)
