YHO is betraying you, amigo - this car is gorgeous. Just not very photogenic - its volumes don't translate well in 2D, you'd have to see it in person to fully form an opinion. Or, if you don't trust me, you can hate it, but it will be your loss - more likely than not. And you know how I know? Because obviously, you know an aesthetically pleasing image when you see one, because a. you follow my threads and b. you have an e60. Oh, yeah, here's a little "convincer" for ya:

Just fished out an update on the Mistrale:

(courtesy of autoblog.com)

While Gemballa hasn't revealed the specifics of how it gets power up (aside from mentioning a new exhaust), it has announced that output is up to 750 horsepower, thereby trumping the top-spec 9ff by a good hundred equines.

The extra power is kept in check by 420mm discs up front, gripped by six-pot calipers, and 380mm with four-pot pistons in the back, poking out from behind Gemballa's own 22-inch forged alloys, and riding on a custom air suspension lowered by 40mm. And as we already know, the Mistrale comes with a bespoke aero kit with bits of carbon fiber all over and extra cooling for the engine and brakes.

And here's what 9ff is cooking up in the Panamera department:

This 9ff is one effing fine car.

Sick! I like it.

Better but still not good looking in overall .

I think its gorgeous, man - you should really see it in person, if you haven't yet. I have a feeling you might change your mind about this one, bro

Anzafin

Maybe, maybe not. Actually only thing I'm not digging is the bubble like rear.

we'll see what happens when they are out on the streets - hey, there's always a chance I'll start hating it myself

EDIT: a very very very very tiny nanoscopic chance
