Very similar to the outgoing 488. More like an evolution of the 488. Nevertheless very beautiful.

Give me a lambo over a ferrari anyday of the week. Theyre too fragile. You see them being recovered from tracksides all the time.

Last time i was at the ring there were 3 that were recovered for one reason or another, p!ssing off the gti boys trying for a fast lap while the yellow flags came out.
Ive never seen a lambo on the back of one of those recovery trucks. Anyone else?

Does look the part tho, I'll give it that. :lol:

458 was lovely, just a bit bland.

488 was a complete and utter mess.

This however, is absolutely wonderful 8)

Yep, still don't like it. Unsure why. It just looks weirdly proportioned. The vertical front bumper things look as if the designer got bored and ended up getting the ruler out :lol:

Also, those side air vents in front of the rear wings (I know the tributo has these too) look very odd. The F8's fit the design language of the car so much better.

Fair shout. Maybe the rear is a bit wide on the 488 compared to the front, the F8 looks a bit more in proportion in that respect.
