Frankfurt 2009: Ferrari 458 Italia

Still not convinced that the 458 Italia is Ferrari's most beautifully-designed coupe ever? Perhaps these shots from Frankfurt will help you see the light.

As you can see, it doesnt matter if the 458 comes in red or yellow, it is gorgeous from every angle.


Even though it arrives in showrooms this Fall, dont expect to get your hands on a 458 Italia for at least another 2 years unless you are a previous Ferrari customer that has ordered directly from the factory OR you're a member of the Carlyle Motor Club. Sign up today!

Frankfurt 2009: Aston Martin Rapide comes good - finally

The production version of the 4-door Aston Martin Rapide concept unveiled at the 2006 Detroit Auto Show certainly has the looks department locked down. A few concessions have been made in the three-year run to production readiness, including bigger side-view mirrors and a less tapered roofline to offer more interior space – especially for the rear passengers.

But those few details – which promise to make the car more usable and, dare we say, practical – hardly detract from the car's beauty. But don't take our word for it.
