They both look handsome to me. I can't believe anyone would describe the Daytona as Ferrari's ugliest car. Having said that it's all relative I suppose: Ferrari don't really do ugly, like most other manufacturers. In fact I can't think of one proper Ferrari that I would be ashamed to see parked outside of my house.

If any other mass producer (like BMW, Merc or Jag) came up with the 365GT4/400/412 design, it would be considered a fine looking coupé. It sold strongly by Ferrari standards for about 15 years. I don't get the downer people have on its design. Better-looking than an XJS for example.
As for the 308GT4, it's clearly the runt of the Ferrari litter (and in fact not a "proper Ferrari" at all), but it's not really an ugly car compared to some everyday rubbish that we see on the roads.

Turbo - he didn't have the 308 long (pretend Ferrari) - it was stupidly unreliable. Nice engine though.
I have always found the 400 very ugly, even when it came out.
I think a 635CSi or old SL looks heaps better.

At least they are fit for purpose: A 400i is a crime against Ferrari both visually and mechanically. I mean whatever idiot Italian thought it was ok to bolt an American GM TH400 3 speed slush-o-matic to a free-revving v12 should be shot at dawn
