I am sure it is a fast car, but the cartoonish headlights turn me off.

I don't mind the headlights though they do seem rather superfluous. I prefer the 360's lights. The tail lights do nothing for me. The overall shape is great but they have diminished it's beauty with the Enzo tail lights (a styling element that should have died before the Enzo was released).

I also can't understand all the plastic on the dash. I really does look like a Sony boombox stereo. These are superficial things on a generally good looking car however I'm disappointed that Ferrari was so clumsy with these relatively superficial details given my expectation that the chassis and powertrain will be spot on and given how good the overall shape these details are just a let down.

I guess Ferrari would care more if I was actually going to buy a car or 6 from them.

The whole car looks a bit toonish to me, I do like it a lot. The tail lights would look much better integrated into the mesh material area, like on the insides closest to the pony. I'm guessing that's where the intakes get their air. Then without the big round tail lights they could have swept the body all the way back just like the rear center of the engine cover, wish I knew how to photoshop haha.

Ok, dont make fun of me but I paint shopped the left rear tail light out and it looks much better IMO

I didn't spend much time on it as you can tell but just to let you guys get an idea of what I was saying

I'm making fun of your paint shop skills.
Yes, it would look better without the Enzo light.
