In my opinion the 2027 Ferrari Amalfi looks very similar to an F-Type R (exhaust) which I view as a wonderful compliment at less than half the price!

Yes, the similarities are very clear and the F-type was mentioned by the Top Gear reviewer on YouTube.

Thanks for the video and I should have made it clear that I felt that the side and rear profiles were similar to the F-Type, the front end is not even close.

Yep, same thing with its prefacelift version, the Roma. Definitely proof of what a timeless design the F-Type is.

Another similar but much better looking example is the current Vantage...

So much so, that when I first looked, I thought you were being a poser by putting Ferrari badges on!

Copy Cats, no doubt. Sincerest form of flattery. I don't like the diapers on the Amalfi and Vantage though.

Around 400 pounds lighter, 56 more HP, 8 tenths quicker in the quarter but $145K more expensive than the F-Type R when comparing base models!

2 things for me in this…

1) I don’t think I could own a car named Amalfi.

2) The F-type looks better

Agreed - every detail is better on the F-Type. Ferrari isn't that good at copying!

I thought Amalfi was the therapist on the Sopranos.
