"It boasts a newly developed mid-mounted four-liter V8 sending 501bhp at a peak of 9,000RPM to the rear wheels.Theoretically at least...Good enough to propel to 62mph in 3.9secs and on to a projected 202mph top speed.

...Uses Ferrari's F1 six-speed sequential paddle-shift transmission, 20-inch wheels fitted all around.

...Dimensions are a close match for a 360 Modena's, the car the Aurea could potentially replace..."

If produced - that car would be the ultimate "it looks like this because it can" ride...

I love the looks , but its too radical for our times ... would be like producing a countach in the 70´s , the same shocking feeling , but with ferrari launching something as radical as the enzo i do not see it far away :shock:

4L v8 501hp @ 9000 that's sounds gooood, the gallardo, 911 killer of the future.... but let's use the engine and not the body (read looks)

I like it, I think at least, I'm still trying to comprehend all
those complex curves around the rear. It looks like a Cross
between a Cerrara GT and an Enzo. Do the wheles remind
anyone else of the wheels on some of the classic Ferraris
of yesteryear?
