ReplyDeleteToo much talking and fake excitment..
I see nothing wrong with the Strategy (business wise) and right on (at least claimed) from I what I would want from a Supercar.
ReplyDeleteStill, everything is execution and its hard to think about a better pick than the 458 Italia. tough job for McL
... I still hate Ron Dennis and his test tube clone child..
I think the launch was a lot more 'human' than the traditional sports car launch. I bet if you looked at every aspect of the 12C's design I'm sure it'd make a F458 seem very compromised.
ReplyDeleteHowever, I still think the F458 is prettier.
