First vehicle release @ November 2011

I'll try to update some other stuff when I can get to my notes.

 

rumor for the glass roof option for october ?

 

Glass roof option will be available at North american launch. at least according to the little man in the screen =)

 

is electrochromik or normal glass ?

 

He did not say. only stated that it would be panoramic glass roof.

 

In your dealer training today, was it suggested that you use the word "innovation" every 37 seconds

 

hehe No, but I think I heard the word "versatile" about 50 times l.

 

Some other Info:

Same length as 612 But is a bit narrower
w/base +40mm (20frt/20rear)

0 - 100kph 11.0sec
208mph top speed
12cu ft storage with seats up
18-19 cu ft with seats down
5 position manetino (sp?)
new type of leather called Semi-analine(sp?) in four colors Cuoio, Dk brn, Blue, Bordeaux

 

If that thing takes 11sec to 100 km/h I would settle for a Ford Focus....

 

I have to agree, I'd go for a Ford Focus instead.

 

OOPS...meant 0 - 160kph(100mph)


But that still can't be right....I'm gonna check on those accel times ...

 

This is gonna be a heck of a car. Did they give any idea of the MSRP (fingers crossed that I can afford one...)

 

I agree, for something that does 0-60 mph in 3.7 seconds accelerating another 40mph shouldn't take 7.3 more seconds...

 

+1

 

Its most likely 11 seconds from 0-124mph (0-200 km/h). Slightly slower than the 458.

 

Ah, so that's how it works, huh. I was wondering how they did that.

 

This car is going to be astonishing. If people haven't understood the platform LDM has laid out and pursued successfully since he took over they need to go to a reading comprehension class.

Ferrari wants clients to use their cars all the time, not just on a weekend blast. Those days are long gone. So while this car made a few concessions in the exoticness of its design, the overall gains far outweigh that small loss. Besides, if you want something more exotic buy a 458, 599 or the upcoming Enzo replacement.

The FF also opens up the door for a more aggressive coupe and sedan from Maserati.

Brilliant, brilliant move and execution.

Forza,


Cavallini

 

We have heard from our rep that the car will come in base at under 300k

 

Larry, have you seen an FF brochure yet? Or any other Ferrari literature on the FF? I know it's early, but I was just curious. Thank you very much for sharing all of this with us, I really appreciate it.

I just can't wait to see this in the flesh! The girl at the Ferrari North America Showroom in NYC told me they would have one in the showroom within a month or so, but didn't have an exact date.

When Ferrari creates the FF Quattroporte, this model will fly off the shelves. In the meantime, here is what the Quattroporte might look like.

Ferrari will not create that I can assure you, I can see Maserati using the chassis, but that would be the extent of it

 

What does this have to do with the topic of the OP?

And why are you littering multiple threads with your "designs"?

 

I have to agree, it's getting a little old to see the same or similar photoshops. You have made a thread for these renderings

It also seems like you are trying to advance your own designs by "spamming" the board, I only warn you because it could result in a ban. You might want to read the forum rules. I say this out of respect

 

I have to say I'm starting to get excited to see this one and drive her.... was a little skeptical with the initial photos and such but with the info we're getting on this car she could be a contender.....

 

I appreciate that. When you mentioned the potential for a sedan, I got the bug.
