Re: ferrari conecpts

I saw them on the Ferrari site.
Hotwheels sells a series of concept ferrari's in (I think) 1/43 scale. I don't know if the HW's mirror any of the concepts shown though.

Re: ferrari conecpts

i think they're all a bit well, dissapointing.
of course i don't know the exact wording of the brief that they were given but as 'concepts' go, they're a bit too close to existing cars.

Re: ferrari conecpts

The Millechilli must have had the laziest designers, it looks like they just put racing stickers on an Enzo. The Ascari concept looks very nice though.

Re: ferrari conecpts

The Millechilli looks like a characature of the Enzo.
The Ascari looks coolest of the winners, but what are those two little snorkle things behind the windows?
And the Tre Diviso appears to have been kitbashed from a Carrera GT with a Modena roof and a Caterham nose.

Re: ferrari conecpts

They all look like bad knockoffs of Matchbox or Hot Wheels, and my wife agrees. Why do they have to look so similar?

Re: ferrari conecpts

that's why i mentioned the unknown brief.
back in university, we took part in a part government sponsered design competition but the brief was so narrow minded, being devised to support the then current governments intentions, that proper design was rendered almost impossible.

what bugs me, is that with the exception of the one they called fiorano, the ones that don't bear any resemblance weren't picked to be winners.

the 368 and the 450 look much more interesting to me.

Re: ferrari conecpts

What! £150000 for a Micra!!!! Sorry to change the subject, but it was on the same page as the Ferraris.... That's roughly $270000 dollars for a toy car....
