chenc544 Posted August 23, 2008 Author Share Posted August 23, 2008 Beauty is always in the eye of the beholder. Personally I like the California better than the 599 or 612. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbwrx Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 I love the classic shaped grill, borrowed from countless Ferrari's of old,but I will agree that the headlight treatment is peculiar. Like most Ferrari's, I know that it will look better in person than any photograph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTATV Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 yeah but this ferrari looked good in pictures.... http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh39/fiidgett2/IMG_0648.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbwrx Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 I still like the way the California looks and photograph's. But all Ferrari's look better in person. Kinda like this one leaving the test gate heading to Fiorano. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2028/2231267003_fab485131a.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newbwrx Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 Star of David has six points... I think what you meant was that it is shaped like a pentagram. The pentagram shape is a much debated topic in academic circles. Freemason's, Christian religion, etc. As far as Ferrari's are concerned, they have used five spoke wheels on dozens of cars. So has every other auto manufacturer. I have dozen's of photographs of the 599 GTB and personally love the wheels. Now back to the California discussion. The wheels are probably my only complaint on the car. They appear a little plain. Ferrari usually offers a second option for wheels, so I would be interested to see what they come up with.

Gire Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 The California and the 599 need more Aston Martin in their design. More fluid with less complications (like earlier Ferrari's, which had more flow) The DB9 / DBS is the best looking car on the road- regardless of price. Sure it's not as raw as a performer as the new Ferrari's but the sex factor is higher, IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyjay1089 Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 I always liked the look of the 599, save those weird star wheels. I went to the Ferrari dealership by my house last week and the 599 looks fantastic, especially with different wheels. The F430 is gorgeous, and the Scuderia there had me daydreaming. Even the 612 looks a bit better in person. The same will probably happen with the California. Ferrari rarely screws up the looks of a car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArcTec34 Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 true, the dbs rocks. but the whole startup screen in the aston saying "passion beauty soul" or whatever would just piss me off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gire Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 That happens when you turn the car on? That would piss me off too.... I'd re-program mine to say, "Blow jobs coming your way within 2 hours." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECU looks cool but is pretty dumb, its not designed so you can fit in on a keychain, has to be carried separately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
