It's no beauty queen, but it's an OK design. Ferrari can do better, and I hope the oddly proportioned 612 spaghetti isn't the best they can do.

Its better than the 456 it replaced. I happen to like it. I liked the 456 as well though.

If you think its ugly, you have no taste and must like things like the, ummm, new Subaru Impreza...

the car looks much much better in real life... 2D somehow doesn't capture its beauty as good.... i'd agree the pictures looks pretty bad but saw one in auto show and it's way way better

ive seen it from the side only and it is amazing. i didnt like it in the press photos. the 612 is a great car. it has a V12 540hp engine but i fea that the car is very underrated.

I didn't like the blue of the early show cars, but as I have grown more used to the design I really liked the black one they had at this years show.

I've seen it from every which way including in the flesh and i personally think its a terrible mark on Ferrari's history. Compared with the gorgeous 456 or the 550 Maranello its horrid. I've heard the replacement for the 575 will be based on it, if so then im not looking forward to seeing it.

still not sure what to think, sometimes it looks like a whale (no offense to the whales:) ), other times the proportions seem to be correct. Here's one in white.

I thought it was nice 'till I saw it in person.

Maybe it's not an ugly car, but it definitely is an ugly Ferrari...

I'm actually in quite the same situation. Only seen it once in real life (one of the few Finnish owned) but I think that the looks can grow on you. Probably top 5 ugliest production Ferraris ever, but that's saying more about the overall design of Ferraris than about the looks of the Scaglietti. Bottom line, don't like the looks, don't hate it.

edit:

Maybe it's not an ugly car, but it definitely is an ugly Ferrari...
Well said. :)

it's ok. the headlights are pretty good but that grille has to go
the scalloped sided look pretty nice imo. the interior is nice but they have to redo the HOLE back section in the next car

It looks good in black, but in red it looks awful.

I think the 612 looks good in black and silver, but ugly in any other colour.

werty

11-11-2005, 05:49 PM

I really like it, however I beleive it is an aquired taste. Somebody make a chop for me. Put the SLR rims on the 612, then it will look awesome!:D

I didn't like it much when I first saw it in the mags, but when I saw one driving it was breathtaking, the noise was another thing altogether ..just amazing, couldn't take my eyes off it.

But I do like a gawk.

you all need my opinion.
lol not really, but its forced upon you..so there.
i think its awesome, but it kinda treads the line between fugly and artistic..
i like it though.

this is how it looks in red

I reckon it is the most rancid and ugly looking Ferrari ever built. Yes, when seeing it in real life my opinion changed from thinking it was one of the ugliest cars ever built, to the ugliest ferrari I ever saw.

It could be better looking. Especially if it had some strakes in the sides, or something. And I don't like how the front grille curves up to make the hood and headlight scheme. It looks almost sunken in, which is really sad, cause some Ferrari design's such as the 456, F355, and the 575 have much more broader front end treatments. The side reminds me too much of a 56 Corvette Roadster, and the rear doesn't match Ferrari's new idea of having the tailights sticking out of the top of the rear fenders. From the back it looks outdated, and from the side, it looks like some one stretched a Porsche 997. I find though that the interior is beautiful, and the fender crease is nice. The look is almost Jaguar-esque. But in my opinion, 75% of it is ugly, so I'm gonna go with that.

Current Ferraris dont seem to be very Photogenic. This car is very good looking in Real life. When the first press pictures where unveiled, i too did not particularly like it's style. Now that i have seen it a few time in real life, i can say that in my opinion it is indeed very nice.
I call it the Enzo syndrome.

The wheels on it are way too small, thats one thing.

absolutely not, wheels tend to be far too large these days in comparison with the total height of the car. this one looks very well proportioned in this sense.

It isn't ugly, it's just out of the traditions of Ferrari's design. its a little Evolution. it's not REvolution like the new 5th BMW, but it's a bit out of the conservative looks. It's pretty well done.

Yes I agree.
For me, the Scag' looks good in white, "dark red", black and blue.

maybe thats what they were going for ;)

to me, the ass, wheels and lights are too small, if they did those better it would be a pretty good looking car, for now it remains well within mediocrity
