I thought Ferrari did? ROFL

I've always thought the Testarossa was a great flat ugly barge of a thing.. I'm serious, too long, too wide, too '80s.

The Honda NSX is much nice looking car and its styling ques have been taken up by a lot of other manufacturers since then. Importantly, the NSX had something that the Ferrari did not: Variable valve timing. Honda have always produced great engines and I personally attribute this to their deeply rooted motorcycle origins.

But you can't argue with the centre of gravity...

I think it looks hot anyway.

I agree. The Testarossa is an absolutely astounding looking car. Totally menacing. One of my dream cars, up on the top 5 list of Ferraris if I ever had to buy one.

Though I have always had my eye on the Dino 246 if I had the chance...my uncle had one when I was a kid...love it, but I love the Z more..though a Ferrari would be cool (shame that it costs $2500 to change the camchain !!).

Cheers ppl!

Thats exactly what is great about those cars, serious stick to the pavement handling. Long, low and WIDE is how I like them.

How's this one-

Ford FiveHundred-

Audi A6-

Ford hired the guy that designed the new beetle. Now most of Fords newer cars look like an Audi, inside as well.

Guess we now know where GM got the front end for the C-4 and C-5 Corvettes don't we? :cross-eye :disappoin
