I actually love it. After watching the video for it driving through all the different conditions and seeing the interior and rear cabin shots...I think its an all around awesome car. I bet it will be stunning to drive and I actually think its a pretty car. Although it doesn't matter because I definitely cannot afford this one, but I guess that I don't have to worry because they are all sold out and I wouldnt be on the list anyway.
Honestly I'm sure Ferrari is just tired of so many Ferrari owners having to go to another car company for an all season vehicle and they know they will sell all of these, so why not? It worked for other companies (porsche).

New laws are forcing auto manufacturers to make a certain percentage of fuel efficient vehicles. This is why you'll see sports car companies like Ferrari come out with more conservative cars.

It looks more like a next generation Z4 Coupe to me without the kidney-shaped grille. Certainly not the most beautiful thing to come out of Maranello.

Agree. Properly done, they're pretty cool. But 'properly done' is a rare commodity.
Seems to me shooting brakes are about the most difficult design exercise in the automotive realm.
Very tough to keep them from looking like, well, like Ferrari chose and appropriate model name for their new one.
Cripes, even pugs (the four legged kind) look good compared to this 'lovely' Aston.

call me crazy but when this thing does what every 2+2 ferrari does which is plummet like a rock in value I will jump all over it. I'm in the minority but I also loved the Z3 M coupe. It looks like the same guy designed both.
Count me in too. I think it looks great!

I doubt it has the four doors and rear and trunk space of the panamera or the reliability.

I would get an Aston Vantage over this if you want a nice car.

TheRox: I'm guessing you mean the Aston Rapide?
The Vantage is the smallest/cheapest Aston and totally not in the same league.

Now that I have seen

the video with the interior I want one even more

I actually can't think of a car I want more right now. Maybe a Zonda but thats about it.
