    This is the "F70" (F150) thread, debating Lamborghini's greatness vs Ferrari's greatness should be done elsewhere.

    Excellent, up to this point none of my friends have seen (a) the functioning car.

    Yes I agree that the 918 is the current VAG Hypercar. The Audi R20 will be the next one and IMO will be quite something.

    From what I hear on very good authority, first customers see it early March. No Geneva launch, this is not a commercial car in their view.

    Whoever said that wasn't thinking with their head. Ferrari might not need to market them to sell them, but the whole point of a Halo Car is chest pumping and you can bet they won't miss an opportunity to do that on a world stage in front of all the flashing cameras so they can snag some magazine covers and get some posters on the teenager's bedroom wall or a background on their iPad.

    Not putting them out on a world stage actually makes them even more exclusive, keeps the mystery, heightens the interest ...

    The car will be presented in Maranello in February. Pictures and specifications will be released on February. The car will be at Geneva in March for its first public appearence.

    We can debate this endlessly, but I am assured not at Geneva. Let's wait and see when we get something definitive so as to avoid endless back and forth.

    Ferrari always shows its cars on the internet first and then on auto shows.
