Portofino [2017-2023] [Official] Ferrari Portofino - California T successor

[hoffmeister_fan]

I am just glad they don't place those goofy-looking rear lights on the trunk-lid and they haven't resorted to the quad-lights.

The only rear shots are from above at three-quarters view. I wonder why...

The previous California was a looker (I saw it at last year Qatar Motor Show) but it's styling wasn't in line with the other Ferraris and looked a bit too feminine. This new one is a huge improvement from the front and profile it is sensational. One of the most beautiful looking roadsters around.

IMO the best looking Ferrari in as long as I can remember.

Your memory must be failing you then, because I vividly remember the F430, 360 Modena and F12, just to name a few....

These are all three better looking than this new one.

360 Modena

IMO, to much gay.

What? This must be the first time I hear this, ever.

This is Ferrari 101. And still very nice looking after all these years.

 

[TopspeedPT]

Yeah. When I think Ferrari, I think about the 360. Such a beautiful car. Still looks good today.

Epic roofline for a hardtop convertible, the little black surface trick is neat.

Sorry guys F355 murders 360 modena in design terms...

The arse does still seem a bit bulbous but considerably better than the California.

They should make a coupe version. With a manual. Would fly off the shelf. No need for a suv.

California buyers choose manual... Ehm, never.

That would mean the California buyers can go f'k off?

Because it would still sell better and suit the brand more?

At eye-level, the rear-end looks better than either Californias. Not great but much better.

For a number of years the California was the last Ferrari you could buy new with a manual. No one bought it... in fact they sold reportedly sold under 10 worldwide during the pre-California T's lifecycle. It was not worth the R&D.

Hate to be captain obvious, but a Ferrari SUV would fly off the shelfs unless they botch it up like the Bentayga. Just thinking of a Ferrari SUV makes my skin crawl.

I remember Luca di Montezemolo adamantly stating that there would never be a Ferrari SUV or 4 door, but as soon as he resigned (under pressure).... everything became fair game under señor Marchionne's direction.

I miss Luca and his fashion sense. He was truly Enzo's torch-bearer.

A manual Ferrari will simply never sell.

After F430, prettiest car which Ferrari made, from newer models.

The giant front bumper/fender gap never bothered you? My biggest pet peeve about the 430
