    There is a lot of body roll. So much that we engineered sacrificial pads that pass through the undertray and transmits the force directly to the chassis.

    Cheers

    There was a time if i´m not mistaken when a Bugatti Royale held the title of most expensive car in the world but, things change at any new action and prices are going up every time....it´s hard to tell wich car is going to fetch a higher price tomorrow!!
    Perhaps 0846 would also trade for more than a GTO but i guess we will never know!!

    I guess "Bug" is for Bugatti, "RL" is for Ralph Lauren, but... "PM"?

    To me it's worth more but to most the 250 GTO seris 1 remains the most coveted Ferrari and the one that that has traded at the highest price. Should one want to buy one let me know.

    That's interesting, especially in light of all the "experts" (not referring to anyone specifically on this forum or otherwise) saying that the V12 is dead.

    I remember a documentary/show back when the F50(!) first came out where Luca emphatically states that the F50 was going to be the last car of its kind ever to be made because of "the rules" prohibiting manufacturers from producing supercars like the F50 in the future. That was almost 20 years ago and yet we still see cars being produced today with V12's, as well as supercars that far surpass the F50 in performance. BMW, MB, RR, Bentley... all continue to make V12's for their cars.

    The V12 is dead? I for one hope that's not true. :D

    Well, one could argue that it doesn´t make sense to build automatic watches because quartz ones are much simpler and cheaper....but no one stop making them did they?
    A v12 will always be like that, an expensive automatic watch...while the turbo..is just a quartz one....works just the same...but isn´t the same.

    Ferrari = Hublot

    If you think Ferrari is the best, why not compare them to Patek Philippe?

    McLaren is much better than Casio. In fact, they have a long-standing relationship with TAG Heuer.

    (Sorry, couldn't resist the watch analogies.)

    Hublot is a Ferrari sponsor and Casio has the same nerdy look as Mclaren's

    I think it is safe to say that as long as there are entry-level V8s and then V12s higher in the range, super-Ferraris will probably continue being V12s, as the ultimate expression of Ferrari's know-how.

    Back in the 80's things were different, ranges were not so clearly structured, but since the 90's with Luca many things are easy to foresee. Maybe the V12s will last simply just as much as Luca leading Ferrari.

    From the testing vid I think the diffuser could be the same as the clever one on the 599xx evo sucking the bonding layer of flux.

    I certainly don't see any flaps.

    Did he mention anything about the size of the rear overhang or the design of the front bonnet?
