IMO, the car looks pretty plain and the ass is ugly, but I'm really digging the matte black from the factory that everyone seems to be doing these days

My understanding is that this car was not intended to be an extension of or replacement to the F1, but rather downmarket cheaper car to compete with the f430, gt3, etc. They actually plan to sell some of these and make money off of them. The F1 was more of an exercise in engineering badassery.
