    True. It looks either unfinished or maybe pre-production.

    Well after reading thru the thread I know a few things for sure.

    1. If they do it right it will be cool.( not that I approve).

    2. I’ll never be able to afford one anyway so …

    3. MV Agusta is the Ferrari of motorcycles not Ducati.

    4. The Dino308GT4 is still the best Ferrari ever built! :D

    Has anyone else seen this:


    I did a quick search and don’t see anyone else reporting on this. Doesn’t look like a fake.

    Because that embarrassment is not a Ferrari. But a separate website? Good idea.

    Sections aren't created until the vehicle is officially released.

    why is it an embarrassment?
    It's no more embarrassing than the FF/Lusso, Ferrari Pinin, 250 GT/E, etc

    Hard to make an SUV ahem FUV looking anything but what it is. I actually think restraint and understatement are the best ways to go. Don't make it anything it isn't.

    For folks that whine about it, it's not like Ferrari canceled the Icona series, declared they will stop selling the SF90, 296, or they won't have an 812/LaFerrari successors.

    People that really want to complain about this to prove their 'hardcore - Ferrari purist bonafides' - there's always FXX and Challenge. Did the Purosangue cancel those? Hell, how about F1 Corse Clienti?

    Too expensive I'll hear...

    Oh, you don't say? here I thought I was on a Ferrari enthusiast forum.

    A non-FChat friend just sent me a video link. So this is still happening? We failed to stop it?

    As a Ferrari fan I think the Purosangue is already outdated before release compared to the Lotus Eletre.

    In my opinion the Lotus both looks better and has a better performance (the top version has 900 HP!), and is way cheaper.

    I think the 900 hp (base version) and the back will make sure enthusiasts don't make that mistake.

    But whaddya I know? We have folks here saying 1,000-2,000 hp is too high and scary for them.

    I won't even mention what's in store in the 2030s...I don't want to give anyone a heart attack.

    We failed to stop getting rid of the 6 speed, AWD, fake vents, 4 seats, hatchback, digital dashes, turbo, traction control, airbags, reinforced B pillars, cats, PFs, LEDs, hybrid.

    Don't like it? Don't buy it.

    :)

    Something tells me this will sell like pancakes, which means more $$$ and that equals more cars.

    The Macan/Cayenne does not prevent the 918, Carrera GT, or GT2 RS. I argue it actually is the cause.

    I won’t. If you gave me a million dollar car budget, I would still pick your Mondial over any new Ferrari.

    See, I am fine with 4 seats. It’s the flagrant selling out of the brand I have the most problem with, not the only problem but the biggest.

    Porsche is now an SUV company that makes sports cars on the side.

    No, I will set aside $3500 now to buy one when the warranty expires so I can use it to haul stuff that would otherwise make my Raptor dirty.

    They should be as common as dirt by then.

    OP. Thanks for starting this thread. The hubris of the title makes me chuckle every time I see it.

    you really think the folks in Maranello give two *ahem* cents about what we think on FChat?

    Isn't the Model X Plaid faster and cheaper? ....in 3-5 years every manufacturer will have a 900+hp EV SUV. After 100 years of ICEV, how many N/A 800 hp SUV exists?

    IMO once everyone can do it, it is no longer special or impressive.

    My opinion, which of course means nothing, is this waters down the brand plain and simple.

    I thought we had our A-Team on it, channeling our thoughts hourly.
