    No way... I don't believe it, surely not! I did however hear that there will be a very limited edition of the Speciale, rumour is it may be a convertible! But its all very hush hush so don't tell anyone I told you! :D :D

    Old news mate, you need a new source. My secret sauce, eer, source, tells me the 458 replacement will be turbo charged. I refuse to believe him...

    Yes those pics were of the actual car albeit somewhat fuzzy thus hiding many of the small yet nicely executed design elements. That is why the 3D video of a giallo triplo and a Rosso car is needed to highlight these elements. No massive rear spoilers needed here to achieve amazing downforce.

    Not even close - I think you need to look at exchange rates

    I think he said it was $950k Australian. He said there is 33% luxury tax and 10% VAT. I work that out to about $665k Australian before tax. That works out to ~$492k US / €448k. Am I off with the math?

    Well crap. I'm out.

    Today I heard what our dealer allocation is and there are too few cars and too many buyers ahead of me to get one. Congrats on those that made the cut.

    You're correct - thought you were comparing the Euro 400k to the AUD950k!!

    I've been to Oz, one of my favourite countries, enough times to have a rough idea of exchange rates.

    Is there any news about allocation in North America? I told my dealer I wanted one. They said......depends. So far nothing at all.

    This week's Autocar posted in haste. Apologies for the bad iPhone photo, will try and post better later.

    Much of the info differs from what we know. They say 760hp, 0-60 in 3, no mention of rear wheel steer and NOT a limited edition car, so they are not up to speed but their rendering looks quite good around the splitter and moustache although they are clearly not aware of the changes to the rear side windows or GTO vents. In fact the virtual SWB element has passed them by.

    If it looks like that it looks like a bad tuned F12...

    We only have to look at the reaction from anyone who has seen the car to know Ferrari are not going to offer a dog.

    Ok folks,

    Power is NOT 760 but 780
    There is rear wheel steering
    It is a limited edition
    The splitter is even more beautiful than on the rendering
    The rear is gorgeous
    And it will not be called GTO!
