It's special and different. My guess is it was previously wrecked and the insurance money help fund the "improvements".

I think this is what they were aiming for. Unfortunately, the proportions on the Corvarri aren't quite right.

If you think the outside was a little off, wait til you open the doors. 458 interior is $20k worth of bolt on Lambo doors.
