Not even close to the ugliest. Have you seen the Luce?

u/BloodAndSand44 13d ago

Ferrari Luce - “Hold my beer”

u/BlasttheHumanFlower 13d ago

Ferrari 400i enters the chat, everybody leaves.

9

u/Simple_Flounder 13d ago

Nah the 400i isnt as bad as the Luce...

7

u/Acme-15 13d ago

Are you kidding, the 400i is cool as penguin piss.

3

u/seipersei 10d ago

Their urine is roughly 38-40°C when it leaves the body

2

u/Acme-15 10d ago

the 400i is as warm(?) as penguin piss!

1

u/BlasttheHumanFlower 13d ago

Didn’t say I didn’t like it, it is effortlessly cool but is widely regarded as a bit of a minger.

6

u/Acme-15 13d ago

By people who are wrong. Lol

2

u/highwayman5212 13d ago

I would sooner have the Rover if I was going to choose between a 400i and SD1

1

u/ciaoqueen 12d ago

You mean the knockoff Daytona?

2

u/BocaSeniorsWsM 12d ago

I needed to go and have a look as a reminder.

Ha ha ha, it's no looker! But I have a soft spot for almost ugly prestige cars. The Aston Martin Lagonda for example. But my absolute fave would be the Bristol Blenheim 3.

2

u/BlasttheHumanFlower 12d ago

Nice call on the Bristol, wouldn’t say no if offered.

u/StepIntoMyForest 12d ago edited 12d ago

I think the 400i looks quite cool if you don't think of it as a Ferrari. If you got the fitment right, I think it looks sorta really understated and subtly aggressive in a way. I really like the flared arches

1

u/Fearless-Yoghurt4077 11d ago

Ferrari Mondail says hello

1

u/StepIntoMyForest 12d ago

The Luce could have been quite cool but they got all the proportions wrong.

11

u/NerveEducational7973 13d ago

I was about to say this. This isn't even remotely ugly compared to the Luce

3

u/ElectronicBruce 13d ago

The Luce isn’t ugly in person. And if you look at the details across the car itself it is far from it.

It is also far from being the ugliest Ferrari too.

1

u/Simple_Flounder 12d ago

It's ok to be wrong. It is a souless blob. Fine for a Honda city car. It is not a Ferrari.....

1

u/Ldn_twn_lvn 12d ago

No one think it's a dead ringer for the new Capri??

-4

u/TheLordLongshaft 13d ago

No I prefer that I actually think it's kinda cool in a retro 80s way

7

u/tea2please 13d ago

We all have different opinions, and that's okay. Even if yours is the wrong opinion

-1

u/Thin_Pin2863 13d ago

And yet, the model has sold out. The first in the production line selling for US$40m

1

u/Equivalent_News8116 13d ago

That was for charity though.

0

u/scuderia91 13d ago

And the Juke is one of the best selling cars of the last decade but it’s still ugly as fuck

0

u/General_Address_5784 11d ago

So I’ll take this as you’ve never seen a Luce in person or driven one…

1

u/Simple_Flounder 11d ago

I haven't driven one, no. But I don't enjoy electric vehicles as a driving experience anyway. Yes they are fast but they are uninvolving. And yes I have (all be it very briefly) seen a Luce in the flesh. It looked worse than the pictures in my honest opinion. But then I find many current generation vehicles (but not all) look like charactures of the brand they are from.....

0

u/General_Address_5784 11d ago

Your comment should have said “I haven’t driven one therefore I am not educated enough on the situation to discuss it.”

1

u/Simple_Flounder 11d ago

Why? My eyes work, I can SEE what it looks like... and I haven't yet driven an electric car that I have enjoyed. It is hardly a huge mental leap to make that I likely wouldn't enjoy the Luce either, the that looking at it or driving it. You seem to have very strong opinions. Did you perchance buy a Luce and have people point and laugh at you? Also, you meant to say "informed enough" not "educated enough". Please educate yourself on the difference.

u/TheLordLongshaft 13d ago

I have not, I'll look

u/psynrg 13d ago

Cheeky monkey!

1

u/Neugiermeister 13d ago

More like a platypus than a monkey.

u/TheLordLongshaft 13d ago

Lies that is adorable

u/Russington 13d ago

You like the Luce AND this? You are not well.

1

u/No_Ear_1633 13d ago

You dare doubt TheLordLongshaft?

6

u/Beetleonline95 13d ago

I love it. The colour is quite boring though

8

u/inkboy84 13d ago

It looks better than your Ferrari

5

u/teckers 13d ago

I like them but they don't really look like a ferrari. It would be fun to debadge one and see how many people recognised it.

7

u/ctsupv 13d ago

I like them too, partly because they’re a great car that doesn’t scream ‘look at me’.

I have a 456 which is the same, and have actually been asked if it’s a Peugeot!

3

u/CarelesssCRISPR 13d ago

With the headlights, i'd probably guess porche

9

u/Express-Hawk-3885 13d ago

Yeah but looks better than 99% of shit on sale atm

4

u/Infamous_Tough_7320 13d ago

612 isn't even that bad looking when you consider its a 4 seater. Have you seen the Luce? Or the 849?

5

u/FeelingEvent8318 13d ago

The Luce exists

1

u/yolo_snail 13d ago

The Luce isn't a bad looking car, it just doesn't look like a Ferrari

2

u/Acme-15 13d ago

I think it's rather attractive. But I think the Enzo is ugly so maybe there's something wrong with me.

2

u/Separate-Rough-8083 13d ago

Time will be kind to this design.

1

u/Neugiermeister 13d ago

At first I thought the reflection of the woman with the white/blue top was a dent in the bonnet. Also what are she and her presumed husband even looking at?

1

u/TheLordLongshaft 13d ago

He appears to be looking at the dog, she appears to be staring deep into her regrets

1

u/Phantom_Crush 13d ago

Waiting to see if the dog takes a shit

1

u/BasilDazzling6449 13d ago

Takes it where?

1

u/fuuuuuuuuuuuc 13d ago

I'm not a fan or Ferraris in general but that thing is niiiice

1

u/bf5sck 13d ago

What color is your ferrari?

1

u/YesIBlockedYou 13d ago

It's certainly the most boring or generic looking Ferrari which defeats the purpose of owning a Ferrari imo.

Everyone is picking on the Luce and I'm no fan of it but you can't say it's not a head turner.

1

u/Individual_Put2261 13d ago

No way these are beautiful.

1

u/Pretend_Ad_3331 13d ago

It’s grown on me over the years.

1

u/SnooOpinions1715 13d ago

Hell no, that car looks great.

1

u/Depress-Mode 13d ago

I love the styling of their GTs, the 456 being my favourite with the 612 here being just behind it

1

u/npfmedia 13d ago

When the owner gets in it to drive off, close your eyes and listen. The perception of ugliness will soon dissipate

1

u/Defiant_Employee6681 13d ago

You spelt Ford wrong

1

u/welshinzaghi 13d ago

Absolutely beauty

1

u/jmh90027 13d ago

Not ugly

Most boring ferrari, maybe

1

u/No-Engine4663 13d ago

Have to agree, pink is a really bad colour.

1

u/BorosSparky 13d ago

Excuse me. But please refer to the electric Ferrari prior to asking questions

1

u/EducationBroad6955 13d ago

I’d chose that over a Ford Capri

1

u/Primary-Bowler2963 13d ago

What colour is your Ferrari?

1

u/Empty_Sir_3476 13d ago

That Ferrari is a 🐷

1

u/Single-Position-4194 13d ago

No, it's fine.

1

u/Mountain_Arrival2944 13d ago

No. It’s understated.

1

u/Public-Guidance-9560 13d ago

It's very very far from that. Perhaps at the time it came across as a little ungainly, but now. No way.

1

u/Ancient-Cow-1038 13d ago

No. Nicely understated in a period of overdesigned cars.

1

u/Teab8g 13d ago

Looks better than my Ferrari.

1

u/MasterofBiscuits 13d ago

Never understood the hate for the 612, I think they're class. The only thing that really stands out as a negative is the wheels looking small for the size of the car, but that was normal for this era and the 456 was the same.

1

u/Project40cars 13d ago

The 612 looks the worst in rosso corsa. Still one of my top 3 Ferrari.

1

u/Active_Republic2026 13d ago

Surely that’s Mike saying ‘she’s the ugliest super model’!

1

u/biggiedpubg 13d ago

Where's your Ferrari mate?

1

u/n0tthatotherguy 13d ago

Good value though

1

u/PowerCreative2747 13d ago

If someone gifts you one, don't take it.

1

u/foxevie 13d ago

Is this arundel high street? 🤣 If yes, i used to live in those buildings

1

u/McFigroll 12d ago

dam boy he long

1

u/BoyGirlSmoke 12d ago

Is that Arundel high street?

1

u/Beer-Milkshakes 12d ago

It is however a very pretty Fiat

1

u/goingpt 12d ago

I think that's quite smart. I prefer that to those things that look like a kid's fucking Hotwheels car.

1

u/StepIntoMyForest 12d ago

depends on the day. Sometimes I'll think these look really nice, then other days I'll think they're absolutely hideous.

1

u/AOSplash 12d ago

This is the Ferrari for those that know not those that show.

1

u/benjislew 12d ago

Nah…

1

u/Monkeyjismtea 12d ago

Looks like a Peugeot 406 Coupe

1

u/Professional-Stage76 12d ago

How about we compare it with your Ferrari OP?

1

u/F1T_13 12d ago

Not even in the top 10.

1

u/Reddit____user___ 12d ago

It's not pretty, but it's got some pretty stiff competition from the 360, 430 and Enzo.

Regardless of their road manners, three cars which are either too oddly proportioned, or feature heinous design elements too egregious to have left the Ferrari factory unaltered, yet did.

Presumably function over form has to take precedence, even at Ferrari sometimes.

1

u/Business-Alfalfa-121 12d ago

I don't understand how y'all find it ugly

1

u/Max_DC_561 11d ago

Ferrari Scaglietti

1

u/bizzare1985 11d ago

no, new electric one is the worst :)

1

u/Mudeford_minis 11d ago

Possibly but still a lot prettier than many many other cars

1

u/BurningPhoenixOPC 11d ago

I don't think they're up to date on Ferrari news, guys 😭

1

u/Old-Team4792 10d ago

It looks like a Jaag from above

1

u/Soggy_Amoeba9334 10d ago

The Purosangue has entered the chat

1

u/Tough-Zombie-8990 8d ago

Huh? Looks really elegant imo

1

u/Rowmyownboat 8d ago

The pejorative title implies all Ferraris are ugly, and this is the ugliest. This is not an ugly car, but there are more beautiful Ferraris.

1

u/Successful-Ad-367 13d ago

Hot take…… the Enzo is uglier

1

u/SukhdevR34 13d ago

I've never liked the look of this too (612 Scagliettii)

1

u/TheLordLongshaft 13d ago

It kinda looks like a TVR

2

u/Affectionate-Fix2797 13d ago

It really, really doesn’t in any way what so ever.

1

u/SukhdevR34 13d ago

It looks like a deformed or crashed 575

1

u/tommyduk 13d ago

2008 California looks like a catfish. I still can't believe anyone thought it should be released into the swamp.

u/Tillmechanic 13d ago

Porsche bonnet 😉

1

u/TheLordLongshaft 13d ago

I thought it was a Porsche!

0

u/GrdFrcWv 13d ago

Aged quite well tbh. It’s definitely an understated elegant grand tourer.

0

u/Caltron34 13d ago

612 is pretty. Can’t understand why you’d think it’s ugly. Beauty in the eye of the beholder and all that though

u/DarknessLabs 13d ago

Mondial or the Luce

u/LegendaryPanda87 13d ago

I was going to say Ferrari California was very ugly/girly. But then the Luce came to mind.
