Ferrari 488 GTB > Lamborghini Huracan.

My only reservation is the sound / exhaust note of a turbo - V10s sound godly.

Discuss.

You don't need that, though. A Corolla or Cruze will carry you to the store, school, work, and grandma's house just fine. :D

If I had the money I'd have one. But I wouldn't drive it to the store, school, work or grandma's house.

Absolutely gorgeous! :thumbsup:

Goddam that thing is ugly. I've always thought Ferraris were works of art, but lately they have been making some that I think are ugly.
That 2+2 model is ugly and so was the Enzo.
And yes I have seen an Enzo in person. There is Ferrari(dealer) repair shop a few miles from me that has all of the cars parked out front. Most are gorgeous.

I was never a huge 458 fan, but I quite like this! A little surprised they went turbo though.

Frankly, I like the Ford GT better. I wonder how they're compare performance-wise.

I've seen a couple of McClarens around here lately. One of them has a beautiful dark red metalflake paint job.

Not only that but at least with the Cruze you can get a manual trans, you know a REAL transmission. The Ferrari 488 GTB is worthless with its 7speed automatic. :colbert:

I love the look but I don't want a Turbo in my Ferrari. But thats just me... Plenty of other cars on the market that have great Turbos. Ferrari is a big engine car /end of story.

If I ever get the cash to buy one, I want a powerful normally aspirated monster engine. Not a wind up toy.

The F40 wasn't a "wind up toy", neither was the 288 GTO.
