You are right, this is a thread about coachbuilding. Coachbuilding and looks go hand-in-hand. Point taken. However... why calling the current line-up sub-par? As an enthusiast you might know the F430 has styling cues of the old Ferrari's, the 156 "Sharknose" F1 and the 250 TR/61 for example. They also offer a front-engined Gran Turismo and a 2+2... body styles Ferrari always produced. I don't see anything sub-par here.
As for the 3.2 time, you know as well as I do the Average Joe won't achieve that. I gave the 3.5 figure because any fat bloke can achieve it using Launch Control.
