Did anybody notice how they put a good name back together, too? its not a 3.6lo r a 4.3l 0 cyl engine now, it is again a 4.5l 8 cylinders one! My GTB turbo will be happy to have a new pure sister...

Now Im jealous, 9000rpm redline and over twice the hp. when will Mazda give the world a 3 rotor turbo or 4 rotor regardless of price like ferrari? Even if it loses money a win on Sunday sells on Monday as the big 3 used to say.

Because is Mazda is a mass production company (not that you didnt know) and ferrari only makes cars upon request.

I was at the Ferrari museum last week and got some shots of this car. I'll post them up when I get the pics uploaded.

I don't think they quite make them upon request but rather they build them in limited quantities to not flood the market. However, there are cases where you have to be a very avid exclusive ferrari customer to get your hand on some extremely limited car.

The interior's getting a bit Subaru-ish, but I'm sure it's all functional.

not sure what you mean by Subarish. To me, it looks like a typical ferrari, with all the ***** settings etc.

Typical of Ferrari of late, to be sure. But they've been heading toward looking like a starship cockpit for awhile now (hence my comment about Subaru, who did this in the 80's). It just lacks...appeal, I suppose, IMHO. The outside has a sexy, but purposeful look to it. The inside - just the purposefulness.

I see, but i thnk its more of the super cars looking more like anime cars. i feel teh designs of super cars are moving with the times. As you notice, the new mclaren , and this car, looks like cars you would see in Ghost in the Shell.

but i am not a designer, so i am just assuming . I feel that , as time goes by, you will see more cockpits like the one above. just my opinion.
