Default 2018 Ferrari Portofino
Has anybody seen one of these yet? Stone cold rip off of an F Type (unless we ripped it off from them first). Having said that, it's a beautiful car.

Anytime a new sports car comes out, someone on this forum calls it an ftype rip off.

We just need to recognize that all modern sports cars look similar. That is... they look like modern sports cars.

Ah? I understood it was more of a direct competitor with the Jaguar Portmeirion. It's part of their move to give their cars names rather than Numbers...

It looks like a vette, Ferrari & f-type had a threesome. Pure sex with an evil smile. If I had a spare 200k to go with my nonexistent millions she would be in the garage for sure.

The ftype front view is more elegant. This Ferrari front looks like a big grin. The gash in the side seems mitubushish. It can probably be fixed to look like an ftype.

Since nobody else is saying it, I'll be the first...

The Ferrari looks like ****. I'd much rather get something else at that price point. They need to get Pininfarina design their stuff again.
