Front looks nice- if a little 360-esque

Back end is horrendous..... looks like they have found a new job for the muppet that designed the new 5 series- yuk

hmmm, front and rear seem to contradict?

Smooth, curvy almost clamshell front end, and then almost a flame surfaced sharp enzo-esque rear with lots of detail?

I'd Like to see the front sharpened up a bit, coz the back end looks lovely imo.

Actually who care about my 2pence, i'm never going to be able to buy one

front looks like photoshopped 360, look at the lights, almost looks like a bad bit of body cloning to cover half the lights

The lights may be taped over as a disguise but.... the rear end shot?

The car is in pristene condition, and also seems to have stopped for the photo. Considering this is a development mule a year ahead of launch, it has all the badges and is bright red! You'd expect it to be matt black, a bit banged up, have loads of testing equipment and antennae attached to it and 2 grumpy Italian test drivers in it.

If you are doing secret testing in the worlds most desireable brand of car, you'd do it more subtly than that surely?

Looks better than the last photoshopped pic I saw. Not convinced it's genuine, though.

I think you'll find its a good photoshop.

Check out the rear shot. There are two black plastic air ducty things either side of the rear screen. The one on the right just does not look right.

If you stand outside the Factory gates, you'll be surprised at what you see coming out, some real cut & paste jobs like a 456 front with F50 rear......many have the black tape over them, some are fully painted & look superb

Hmm, according to the rear plates it might be called 430. And where are the front plates? I Know they are small in Italy but still visible.

The caption says the photos were taken in Mexico hence my suspicion that a pristene car on the opposite side of the world is not a fiddled photo. Unless it's there for a photo shoot but a year ahead of launch? Na.

Oh, and those tiny Italian front plates went the way of yellow headlamps in France thanks to the EC Eurocrats!

That's what I thought, this must be a hoax, that thing a mess, the front is bland at best, the 360 is way better looking, and the rear - words fail me
