    For the wealthy that lives in Switzerland or Colorado, and finally can drive their Ferrari to "the slopes" instead of that ugly Rover. Fits the brother in law in the back seat quite easily......

    The interior was absolutely incredible. People compliemented me on my cologne, but it was Schedoni.

    Got to see it tonight at Ferrari of Ft. Lauderdale (thank you):

    I liked the car in person:

    (PS, I apologize for my shirt, it was the only one that did not need ironing)

    Hey, I got lots of compliments on that shirt!!

    Like I said wore it only because it was the only shirt that did not need ironing, and I could not find my iron. I think it is the only non-button down collar shirt I own, and it was the first time I wore it since I bought it 8 years ago.

    Back to the FF, I think Ferrari could have done a better job with the design. I heard Ferrari bought the rights to use the Pinin logo on the side, but all new Ferraris are done in-house.

    I finally got to see three of these in Maranello on Wednesday. They were all either a metallic white or silver colour. Hard to tell with it being overcast and they were moving fairly quickly... ;).

    Overall, I liked it. However, think the back end will take some getting used to.

    Did you just say the Range Rover is timeless but the FF will not be missed in 6 years?

    A box on wheels is timeless??

    Fascinating......

    I saw the FF in person last week and hope to put in my order by October, it is beautiful although the rear quarter does take a bit to get used to. The rest is pure Ferrari!

    I cannot understnd why people are still so negative about the FF. If you don't like it then don't buy it. If you think about it--- Ferrari built a great AWD without building a SUV ( Chayene) and the perfect 4 passenger sports car --without building a 4 door sedan ( Panamera). Nothing wrong with trying to target different market group....

    I was the first toi photo the prototype in its finished state.

    I wanted to love this car SO bad

    Had you said the sound wouldn't be missed I would agree

    I am a station wagon guy and take ALL kinds od fun from my friends

    This is a BAD design. I am sorry, but it is pretty poor. It saddens me more seeing the styling designs and a couple of them look REALLY cool. Sadly, this was choosen.

    I would buy a 456 Venice wagon in a heartbeat if a US spec version was available. That still holds true now
