    problem with any mid engine is the cooling issue. the best solution is bugatti's- simply spend the money on making the **** thing water tight and then leave it completely uncovered. hope they do this for the next R8.

    Doesn't take much with a Direct-Injection fuel system. Unfortunately the mid-engine Ferraris always have issues with evacuating heat after a re-design. Even challenge cars which have more ventilation have some issues initially.

    Man, that hurts to see. These cars are like works of art. And there will never be enough good art in the world.
