Top Gear Magazine did a review on it, but they didn't drive it. I think you can get the scan somewhere here on Jabbasworld.

Yep you won't find driving impressions at the moment.. the car has still to hit the roads and Ferrari isn't to keep to give away pre-production cars for testing I guess

What do you mean "ugly Ferrari"?? :x

Calling a Ferrari ugly is like calling president Bush intelligent

haven't driven it, but i did get to sit in it and start the engine during the premier in Malaysia a month or so ago. Unfortunately the battery was weak and the LCD screen kinda fizzled and the lady thought i wrecked the show car; i told her it was the battery but she didn't want to listen to me. After the mechanic came and took a look at the problem, he agreed that it was the battery, and the lady profusely apologized. I am a die hard ferraristi, but the scagilietti is too bulky and too unwieldy to truly catch my eye. Maybe in a few years it will grow on me, but if i had the money, i'd get myself the 360CS in a heartbeat. Oh and it costs way more than the CS too. And the CS as we all know it is far from cheap...

The back looks like a Bentley Conti GT. The 456 looked so much better... so much better...

The thing looks awkward; almost clumsy and in a way resebles the Ford Mustang powerd Qvale Mangusta. The dash display is awsome still. Never the less, the 456 was a work of art; a masterpiece of Ferrari.
