For me the F40 also looks better with them closed.

As a kid of the 80s, they were all better with the lights down. That was the POINT!

Same with the hidden headlights in 60s-70s cars before. They designed them because the US-DOT only allowed 2 sizes of round or rectangular headlights with no clear covers or aerodynamic lenses until 1984!
