Park a 550/575 next to a newer vette and they look very close. The headlights are almost an exact copy.

Why does everyone want to drop a perfect car.
The cars are perfect from Italy anyone that drops one hasn't DRIVEN one. The engineers in Maranello probably know more about performance than the average guy.
This car is very nice and those black len's on the back are fantastic. Not 7k fantastic but very nice I will call them for hopefully smaller sticker price

I'm sorry, I don't agree with this at all. The ONLY reason for lowering that car at all would be PURELY for looks. And that is a really lame reason to mess with near automotive perfection.
If you want to muck around with a nice car and dump it down, buy a track car. If you want to ruin a perfectly good car for looks alone, buy a Civic like the rest of them.

Again someone with brains. Unfortunately 99% of the people that want to lower these cars will never drive one. Maranello engineering is pretty damn good out of the box. I do have one friend that lowers his for the same reason people lower Porsches because the Euro spec is a fraction lower. This just doesn't change the Car enough for ANY typical driver to notice. The only thing you notice is bumps bumps bumps.
If your going to buy it. Track the crap out of it and never drive it on the road. Lose the seats and a fuel cell, take her down to the bares and subtract a few seconds off of your local track time.
I would have said Acura though

Surprised everyone just says "drop the front".
While I agree the wheel gap is extreme (and I'm no fan of it)... the balance/level is more important.. I don't want it tipped forward!
