Ferrari 458 GT2

First pictures of the Ferrari 458 GT2. Looks a little retro in the nose area.
Reminds me of the NART Dino 246 Lemans 1972 with all those vents.
I will have to drag myself down to Sebring this year. Its the same week at the Ferrari Expo so Thursday/Friday practice will have to do.

I don't like the street version, but the GT2 version is likable!

Looks like a mean machine but that front grille is extremely ugly.

Re: Ferrari 458 GT2

Viewing the full size photo, seems like the outer edges of the grillework were covered by red tape. A couple minutes of work and this is what it might look like:

Re: Ferrari 458 GT2

Now it looks like it has a big bad smile. I feel sorry for the GT2 cars that see those scary yellow headlights coming up on them. They look like bug eyes just like on the 548. They also look more like Zagato than Pininifarina. It makes the car stand out alot. The sideview I bet is the best angle. This car is very low. The front grill will probably get modified by Sebring. I also hope they use the 599 FXX wheels instead of these BBS wheels.

Looks better like this.

I agree with Tom, it looks like a big mean smiling bug! Hopefully it is also very fast.
