Ken Okuyama and his Ferraris
Ken Okuyama is the Pininfarina designer responsive for the Ferrari Rossa Concept, the Ferrari Enzo, and the new Ferrari 612 Scaglietti.
I heard somewhere that he was going to quit Pininfarina, did i hear wrong?

No idea on Okuyama, but I'd take the Scaglietti even if I'm still kinda getting used to the looks, but I'm sure I'll grow fond of them...and well the Bentley is not exactly pretty either...

I think I read in a interview in FORZA that he already left pininfarina but still did some consulting work or something like that.

I read somewhere that he left Pininfarina, and now he's teaching design.

I have to see the 612 in the flesh first. Pictures still haven't really convinced me, although it looks far better in some pictures than in others. I did choose the 612 though, but that wasn't too hard. That's because I don't like the Bentley. The only positive thing about the design of the Continental GT I can think of is that it looks less bad than other Bentleys.

The Scaglietti is a beutiful car, a worthy succesor of the 456. And it has a very nice exotic name. I still like the Bentley, but it doesn't have the italian fineness, which I dear ever so much
