    The Huayra will be made in much smaller numbers by a much smaller workforce though.

    I don't believe the FF was sold out. I read the other day of a prospective LP700 buyer (in the UK) if he could pretty please order a brand new 599 GTO instead, even though Ferrari told us the GTO was 'sold out' VERY soon after it's public release over a year ago.

    when a car company says that the car is "sold out" they typically mean to their customers, which are technically the dealers/distributors. the end buyer is technically the customer of the dealer and not Ferrari directly. These cars will sit in inventory everywhere. If my local dealer has a 458 and a 599 GTO in showroom inventory right now (which are supposedly hard to get) how many FFs do you think will be sitting around begging to be purchased.

    I can imagine it looked a lot better after it drove through your college. A connection with a wall will improve things, particularly when hit at speed. ;)

    Algar Ferrari in Rosemont Pa. Saw pictures of their showroom recently and they had a yellow 458 and a blue GTO in stock. Haven't been to see them in person.

    To be honest, if it looks anything like the pictures ( the FF) I would not pay $30k for it.
    Hopefully everyone will be saying the pics don't do it justice.

    The 430 Scuderia was perfection - IMO of a Ferrari!

    Lightweight / Rude / Carbon galore / Loud / and F1 slamming your neck!

    Women love the Conti GT! Is she getting the V12 or V8?

    Did she consider the RR Ghost? Maybe a bit too old fashioned and too big to park?

    I'd still have a Challenge Stradale, the Scud is better in all performance categories but the CS has cinquevalvole :)

    Any Ferrari with a 12 cylinder in the front is closer to the historical roots of Ferrari then a 8 cylinder midengined boyracer could ever be. Even if it is an awesome car.

    I have to agree, a long nose V12 GT represents the first few decades of Ferrari

    ya know, i gotta agree :) even though i'm fortunate enough to live with an F40 and 288 GTO

    Twelve cylinders, up front, is the classic Ferrari configuration.

    Related to the OP's post, I've been told the same yesterday by Ferrari Financial Services when I met them on the Ferrari Stand. As they are good friends, I believe them as they have no interest to tell me any bullsht. For the Swiss market, surprisinly, the FF is sold out up to spring 2012 !!!

    You're absolutely correct, Bryan! Too much green beer from last night...well not exactly but it's a good excuse, no? :)

    Beer = the best scapegoat ;)

    Have you heard much about how many FF's will come to the states in the first year?
