    I have not yet seen anyone comment on the 3rd brake light - I find (studied in closely at the como preview) it is incorrectly placed as the most obvious, and visible, location would be to integrate it into the spoiler above the rear wind screen. what's the point of having the "highly visible" 3rd brake light in the same line of the the normal brake lights......????

    I don't know if ferrari care or listen but i did suggest to my dealer to mention this to ferrari

    I have given the GTC4 another chance. But no, I come back to the same conclusion, I like the FF better. This facelift was unnecessary, sorry.

    And to compare the timelessly beautiful 456 GT with the GTC4 hurts me.

    Yes, completely pointless putting it there.

    Running on winter shoes - the standard one has the wheel arch well-filled

    Source for this? Don't look like winter tires at all. Plus, they would be ridiculously inadequate for an official video shoot in Portugal!

    Furthermore, the right winter tires for every car should keep diameter within 1-2% of stock size (if you change tire/rim setup; exactly the same if you don't), filling the wheel arch almost exactly the same.

    So, sorry but IMO what's going on here is not winter setup: unfortunately it's "real world" wheel and suspension setup, as opposed to pure "show" setup as we had seen these days.

    From the side it is very difficult to tell if it is the FF or Lusso , a bit like a 997 versus a 991 Porsche. Still a tremendous machine :)

    I prefer the updated roofline more than FF- You can really notice the difference in the flesh that you don't see in pix.

    It seems as if they've taken some of the headroom out of the rear seats

    Anyone have a clue on that ?

    Sorry, don't agree- not watered down, but quite the contrary.

    I'd take a coupe version of the FF/Lusso over an F12 anyday, if they in fact ever made it.

    A lot more drivetrain/chassis/capability to put that power to the ground and use it!

    Why is the shield sitting up so high and alone? The FF has a lot of triangles and 3 way frame convergences, and that flows with the 3 sided shield, tucked in after the side vent. This Lusso is all rectangles and 4 way convergences, and the shield is flying high all alone. A lone triangle on a very rectangular car.

    actually, might have had the lifter activated because in the video posted you can see it sits correctly (without gap in arches). i have asked about the gap and have been told that it does indeed sit without much space inside the wheel arch between tire and arch

    Seems you agreed before. IMHO the F12 should not be heavier, slower, mainstream, or MUCH less attractive or special. :)

    In real life and with a nice color the Lusso fixes many if not all the critics of the FF. That doesn't make the FF a bad design. Just more controversial. At half the price of a Lusso the FF still has a market.

    Perhaps it is possible to like both cars?

    WOW! After seeing it in motion I think it looks a lot better than my FF. It's absolutely beautiful! Can't wait to get one!

    I like both too... A 2 year 200k FF vs 380k Lusso seems like an excellent value.
