The one off 488 Speciale MM looks awfully a lot like some new Ford?

The special projects cars never look as good as the standard cars, and they cost an astronomical amount of money.

I don't see it. Given all the rules about headlight height, windshield, etc coupled with aero similarities for approaching 200 mph... I don't think they could look much different.

The angle of the dangle.. and all. :lol

Must be the shape of the side window blending to the front window.

Highest form of flattery...saw an Instagram post about the special project cars costing 3M and taking up to 3 years to make.

Front of Ferrari looks "generic" , Side view "not bad", Totally destroyed in rear view, still looks like "an insect"! Not even close to the GT. Last great styles for Ferrari were pre 80s testarossa (Boxer and before)!

Much less than the Ford. Is this suppose to be V6? It would be almost impossible to have the design the same with a V8. Plus they can't copy it too closely as Ford patented the award winning design!

Looks more like a Lotus Evora than the NFGT.

Good GRIEF! In that shot it looks homely as a mud fence! It looks great in the other photos...

Yeah...like I said, I thought it was a photo of the other car taken at a lousy angle and in crappier lighting!

E.g.: Look at the passenger cabin area. 'Windshield slant and side window shapes a darned near identical.

I just now noticed the side mirrors aren't the same.
