    I think you are reading way too much into the base price. The TDF wasn't that much more than the F12, so why should the 812VS be? Don't forget that this car also comes with some options that quickly raise the price. The CF wheels? Don't be surprised if they are a 40k Euro option your dealer would like you to add. I think these will easilly be in the 700-800k Euro range when sll is said and done.

    Quite sure Marcel also mentioned a few weeks back, that it will be a numbered car.

    A real surprise would be a custom bespoke set for this car and not the "new" all purpose suitcases mix (not a great idea, in my opinion)

    I think it sounds like an über mommy-fied version of a Citroén C4. A car where the cigarette lighter is replaced with a lip-gloss and the glove compartment is especially well suited for a box of baby-wipes.

    Simply awesome.

    About the Purosangue (Thoroughbred) name, I might be the only one that actually like it, in my opinion It sounds awesome :D

    There will still be a NA V12. It will just have an electric motor too.

    I'm Italian and Purosangue is a really good name! I like it a lot! Sounds good! It suggests an idea of strength of purity

    Unless they are padding the edges of the openings under the camo, this would suggest that the inlets are like nested scoops, one inside the next, with raised edges, kind of like this:

    I noticed this on the camo car but this was not evident on the leaked pic of the blue car.

    A N/A engine is still a N/A engine. Hybrid means "mixture", it doesn't mean "forced induction".

    True, but I don’t understand why use this name on a SUV.

    In fact, thinking again about the just announced all-electric car—which I think now might be some low-volume niche car, not a daily driver; kind of like the Pinin Battista—Purosangue would be a great name for that in the sense that it can dispel people’s idea that an all-electric car can’t perform as well as a traditional sports Ferrari. IF they make the car perform that well.

    I think they have chosen a name that wants to show that Ferrari is pushing into uncharted terrain without betraying its DNA. A completely new product that contains all the characteristics that distinguish a Ferrari.

    but maybe I'm off topic compared to VS... :)

    Yes, well said... but maybe even more applicable to an electric car, no?

    This.

    That should be engraved somewhere, I'm tired of people confusing "Unassisted" and "Naturally aspirated"

    Agree - but for many purists a Ferrari NA V12 car is a Ferrari car with just a NA V12 engine - nothing more.
    There are some Ferrari old time purists that believe that a Ferrari can only be NA 12V and everything (V8, turbo, electric, etc) are just a FIAT. I am not of that camp as I believe the F40 is one of the greatest cars ever - but everyone has different boundaries...

    Of course! All the more reason. A way to say "It's a Ferrari anyway". A way to shout it and remove all doubts. I think we can sleep peacefully. It will be a beautiful project. Different. But in life we must always look ahead. I'm sure none of us will be disappointed.
