This are the best pics so far i have seen:
The car looks A LOT like a F50 but thatīs because of the disguise, anyways as Alex pointed the car gonna remain about the same size of the F50......

F60 looks great. Some imagination is required when looking at the 'disguised' car. It does look that the body panels are not real F60 panles but slap-ons so i do expect the external appearance to change significantly with the final release. The basic structure and configuration is apparent however and looks like a great car. Its not too different from the F50 to be in a different class but is different enough to be a new model.
Thumbs up.

Well, this certainly looks very ugly, especially the smaller front wheels. I don't like the basic shape either, for as far as it is possible to see.

I expect the car to look stunning when it is released uncovered though. Undoubtedly Ferrari will not mess it up. by the way, where are these engine figures coming from? I've read much different guesswork on the power, supposedly it will be between 550 and 600 bhp because Ferrari is unwilling to compete for the ultimate records again. Spy photos in a Dutch mag looked a lot different by the way, and pointed to a considerably smaller car.

I do think this one looks a little too long. I am curious about the final version of the interior as well.

It's not as stunning as I expected.

IF it's going to unveiled to the public... I am sure CARRERA GT would kill it in looks.

i have looked at it more and it looks like the common supercar from the begining of the 90s. there is nothing new looking about it. Hopefully this is just some body work covering up the real design.

And on what Ninja said, the Carrera GT may beat it period, style and performance but there is no way of knowing which would be better.

Looks too much like the F60.

I sure hope the actual one will look a lot different.

Only one of the pics came up for me, but I only got the back view. I think that the pic someone posted on the other forum was actually a spy pic. I didn't think it was b/c it looked waaaaay too similar to the F50, which this one does too. If they put out a F50, badged as an F60 I will be very disappointed. They need to change a lot more than the air ducts for it to be a different car.

Well, IMO it's ok, like Pirana I like the pictures of it in Part I better. Personally I like the Modenna better. But hey thats my opinion

i think it is hard to get an opinion from dressed up test car pics and cg pics. you can only guess what may happen and that will get us nowhere.

Looks like an F50 with minor updates (although not for the better). Ferrari should get with the times and give us somthing futuristic (but not too futuristic - and not ugly neither) that looks less like a recycled F50 and more like something new and innovative. See 360 for a good example.

I'm sure ferrafi knows that there are gonna be spy pics and lot of assumptions drawn on the car way before its release...but i'm sure the cars highly modified........and trust me when the cars finished.....its gonna be a FERRARI alright!!!!!!!!
