looks like a kit car based on a lotus or it may be a ferrari concept i have never seen it.

greenhorn · 17th March 2009, 19:26

is it even a real ferrari

Nikhilb2008 · 17th March 2009, 19:28

It looks like a DC design with some Ferrari badges and red paint!

pranavt · 17th March 2009, 19:41

Whatever it is, it looks **** ugly.

bigron · 17th March 2009, 19:45

All i can say is yuck.have no clue what car it is.and i am glad i dont know the answer.

iceman7 · 17th March 2009, 19:48

Whoa... That's one ugly Ferrari. Kinda like the rear though

ThE_DoN · 17th March 2009, 19:48

Looks like a photoshop assissted picture..

abhik · 17th March 2009, 19:50

I really doubt it that its a Ferrari, Usually Ferrari has those star shaped alloys and i have'nt seen a deep dish design ever on a Ferrari, plus styling cues are very unlike Ferrari. But whoever did this car up took real good care about detailing like the badges and paint.

Rotorhead · 17th March 2009, 20:12

oh no, hope ferrari hasnt roped in DC to do its designs now. The car is plain ugly.

ac 427 · 17th March 2009, 20:20

this is a 'ugly' car from ferrari.

I know the designer of pininfarina died, but they can't go so bad. this is is NOT a ferrari. Period.

This is the new contender for "Herbie gets muscle". Just look at the broad smiley face. Dead giveaway that!
Seriously though, it's way too hideous to be a ferrari

danlalan · 17th March 2009, 20:30

This isnt a ferrari for sure. If it were a concept it wouldnt be unvieled like this. It wouldnt be standing there with a couple of Porsche 911's.

Some random designer with a random car and ferrari stickers.

Any more info on the cars specifications. Looks like a good track car.

FlyingSpur · 17th March 2009, 20:36

This is a Ferrari AFAIK. I've seen pictures of these cars quite some time back, and remember reading it's a restyled 348. The authenticity of that article or the accuracy of the information I read is something I cannot guarantee.

Edit : Yes I'm quite sure of it now. Google Ferrari Michalak to see what I'm talking about. Year 1989, donor Ferrari 328.

Nitin · 17th March 2009, 21:44

The finish is good, but the design isn't the best.Pity the 328 had to undergo such a change!( The 328 & 348 GTB are one of my all time favorite Ferraris).
