GTC4Lusso Official Picture Thread.

Silverstone, Cognac semi analina/ black inserts, black upper zone, black alcantera headliner, cognac rear parcel shelf, chrome edged grill, shields, yellow calipers, diamond cut 5 twin spoke wheels, skirt lifter, cameras, Apple car play, carbon centre to wheel with leather rim, and loads more

No pano as I can't get my head back far enough to see it
No steering wheel lights as they are a bit of a gimmick for vettel wannabes
No carbon on the wheel rim as I prefer the feel of leather to plastic.

I know, I know.......hypocrite doesn't even begin to describe it.....it's the future

 

Silverstone was my original choice -

I went with pano for the effect as opposed to front seat use and also my kids who are pretty much the only ones that will sit in the rear will benefit from it. I defo didn't go for the passenger display as I can't see why my passenger would not be able to use the massive display in the centre console

 

Silverstone made my FF look very elegant and I think it will add something to the Lusso and disguise the bits I don't much like, like the rear pillar crease. Totally agree with you about the passenger display. My normal passenger, amazingly, has arms long enough to reach the centre screen plus I don't always want her to see the speed.

Pano is perfect for kids, must be great fun to lay back and watch the world go by at speed but the dog sadly ever looks up preferring to snuggle down hoping not to die

 

What changed your mind? Still trying to persuade myself it's the the future!

 

I kept looking at it and then sitting in my FF and thinking this is quite old school where nothing really fits that well, hand made always nearly fits I kept telling myself. The radio in the 2015 and 2016 FF is absolute rubbish because both the DAB and FM aerials interfere with each other. The stitching on the dashboard doesn't quite line up, The seat is not that comfortable and the market for new and innovative is buoyant whereas if I kept piling on the miles at 15k per year the value would plummet.

At Villa Erba I loved the Cognac and black interior and as that is where I am most of the time (inside the car) I thought life is too short. End of an era let the next adventure begin. Plus the new shape is growing on me although I would have prefered a bonnet bulge rather than the depression, I would have preferred not so many creases but in the right colour it looks like a sharp suit that could very easily grow on you.

 

Question for me is - do I keep the FF and add the GTC4 or do I actually trade the FF in ????🤔🤔🤔

 

Don't quite know why you consider the steering wheel LEDs for Vettel wannabes. I think they are essential for fast driving and aside from anything else, prove to be also essential for a fast sale!

 

Good on an F12 or TDF or 458 or 488 and La Ferrari as these are more than able to be exceptional track machines as well as all else but the FF and Lusso are GTs and who with the power available is going to use it in extremis on public roads as that is where most FFs and Lussos will live.

No intention to offend anyone who prefers them and yes they may speed a sale but I've never specced a car for the next owner. Selfish?, Foolish? maybe

 

How would you regard the FF after six months with the Lusso. Identical utility, novelty in conflict with nostalgia, depreciating asset, frustrating media.

I think you know the answer

 

I've never had them and I gave up on this argument - some people do believe they really need (and want) them - we have to agree to disagree

 

Trying to justify keeping the FF 😊....so far the only justification is that the price I got it for was exceptional

 

definitely keep the FF - why not . send it to a vacation house or use the FF as your winter car.

 

I thought this was the Lusso picture thread?!

 

Would you use both or just drive the FF occasionally because you felt you had to?

 

Apologies for thread drift

 

Probably not, pretty sure never once I get used to the Lusso 😊

 

Love the stitching brings the dash together - My favourite part of the car is the dash

Lovely shots (CGI, perhaps?). Such a beautiful dash.

 

Maybe or a photoshop manipulation ? I found the pics on google.There are some good
videos of the dash that can give one a better feel of how it would look in person

An FF and Lusso are in my mind only daily drivers.
Great perspective you have for the kid and 150kmi (that's only if you don't fall for the latest and greatest F car for have the hitch for a new toy )
(we can't all afford to have 10+ cars )

 

I will pay whatever it takes to retrofit that nav/entertainment for the FF

 

Well excuse me for calling it 4wd, what on earth was I thinking.. =l

My point still stands, the "front drive assist with a rear trans, in a shooting brake" was a first for Ferrari (it was even a first for the entire car industry).

Perhaps it would be a stupid move to offer two engines for the same car but my entire point was that just because they haven't done something before doesn't mean they will never do it.
