    Ferrari will position little brother above Artura. They don’t want to play down there. They have Roma and Portifino foe that. This will be a 350k car minimum starting.

    Artura might be positioned below LB but I wouldn't be surprised if Artura's performance will be on par or better than LB due to its lighter weight

    the artura or arthur or whatever it is, sits below f8.... 720 replacement will compete with lb and again initially it was not intended to compete with 488 but it would sit above 488 and 650; something equivalent to sf90 today but then mclaren quickly changed its tone. replaced the slow selling 650 within 3 years..

    Artura is cool car to me. I like it a lot more than the 570S.

    LB can be epic. I just hope they make it attractive.

    Yikes, your comment makes makes me feel kinda old (which I am).

    Regardless, I hope the reveal happens sooner (like June) as opposed to later in the fall.

    Ferrari hasn’t called me to the plate yet, so I could change the F8 Spider order to LB if it is truly something special.

    But the bar is quite high and it’s gonna take a lot to lure me away. Time will tell.

    Day355 always mentioned that it would be good looking, he just hated the Tech and Sound. I think so far it looks great! If they can just get the finer details as I think they will.

    I was thinking about that, what [mention]day355 [/mention] has said in the past regarding the looks. Since the unveil is imminent, I’m hoping people in the know will share a bit more.

    Enough of the drama already. This is like a strip tease, every set of pics gets a bit more revealing.

    If it replaces f8 it can’t be 350 base.

    Agreed. It might take a little price hike, but start at about 300 in the US.

    I tend to believe Motor Trend. I also believe it will be awd. Maybe the fiorano pack will include the front e motors. I am hoping Ferrari will finally offer a roll cage etc.

    From what I’ve heard Lamborghini and Mclaren are running late- dieselgate and financial issues, respectively, delayed the new Huracan/R8 and 720S replacements- both of which are expected to produce at least 800 hp.

    Lambo is not expected to reveal its avdntador replacement till late this year. The Huracan not till 22.

    and if it’s true we will not get order delivered for the 171 till early 2023!that works out perfectly for me. House paid off by then!

    I have an f8 on order and that’s why I’m thinking it’s too high 350 bc my f8 with a bunch of options is 342-345.
    I’m thinking I might cancel for the v6 if it looks good and also bc As I only keep
    My newer cars max 2 year so I’m thinking the f8 resale values will get a hit as soon as the first v6 are delivered... but I could be wrong...
    The 18 month wait time doesn’t really bother me as well I use my 355 and TR instead.
