Serie Speciale - rear end.

Not a fan of the rear on the speciale. It looks like someones taken an angle grinder to the grill around the lights. I always thought they had a power increase, but looking at the plenum it appears not in the same way as the gtb. I do like the rest of the look too though. Not sure i could live with the rear.

No, I think I'd need to see one in the metal. I like the grille across the lights on the back of mine, but if that looked "engineered" and crafted to "add lightness" I could probably enjoy it.

Is that how they were then?
No rear grille over the lights. Not sure I like that if I'm honest, though maybe looks better "in the flesh".

Yes, the SS are all like that. No it doesn't look better in the flesh IMO. Kind of looks like someone criticised the grill at the back of the 348, possibly meaning they should go back to the round lights, so they took the grill off as an afterthought.

No power increase, in fact it's down a tad on a GTB/GTS/Euro spec Spider due to emmissions regs in the States - 312bhp compared to 320bhp for ours.

It doesn't, it looks like the back of a Pontiac or perhaps something Japanese. I am not a fan (in case I wasn't being clear :) )
