It would kind of almost be fine if it weren't for the train headlight.

It would be a HUGE improvement, but then there's that rear fender...

Not even close.

The goppers are obviously much worse, as well.

And while the Enzo's bad enough:

The LaMonstrosity is worse. Far, far worse. Eye-gougingly awful.

Kinja'd!!!

I'd say 'kill it with fire', but we know it'll do the job itself anyway sooner or later...

Nice! The execution of that headlight is so much nicer than the 166 MM.

Oh, OK, you're right. The 208 was probably a bit harsh.

But, I should have added that from any other angle than the one pictured, the 166 is actually a very pretty car. It's actually better looking than any Ferrari in nearly 20 years. I was just going by Ferraris that are uglier than the 166 from that angle.

Seriously, though, no-one actually likes the looks of new Ferraris that aren't the 458, do they?

For the most part, modern Ferraris have lost all their elegance and become more aggressive and purposeful. Not cool, since this is much of what made a Ferrari a Ferrari. I still wouldn't call them ugly though.

I respectfully disagree on the LaFerrari.

To be fair, none of them are really ugly. Although of them all, the 612 comes pretty close. It's more that the 166 isn't bad looking at all, so it's not that hard to look worse.

The one I'm really surprised you disagree on, though, is the LaFerrari. It looks a mess from every angle except low-down in front of it - and I'm not sure how often you look at cars while lying in the road, but that's not my favourite viewing technique.

Looks awesome from that one angle:

But then there's this:

Kinja'd!!!

And not forgetting that even shot from a good angle, it has a butt-face:
