    I thought it'd be fun to see how owners-to-be of the 296 will be getting into the car - adding to an existing Ferrari(s), replacing one, or new to the brand? The poll results should be interesting, since Ferrari emphatically touts the 296 as NOT a replacement for the F8! :)

    I'm personally coming from a 458 Spider, which I'll be replacing with the 296. It'll be a change of pace for sure!

    Oh, and thanks to @stretchgeneral on the 458/488/F8 forum for inspiring the idea for the poll. :D

    Had a 458 spider, F12, still have my 458SA which is special to me , I skipped on the Pista n F8 due to interior layout and feel almost the same as my three prior Ferraris, I'm going with the 296GTS.

    Will replace my 488. Ideally pick up a V12 between now and then too.

    I have a F355 in the stable that I never plan on giving up so this will be an add. This will be my first new Ferrari.

    Adding to a manual 599, if I have not moved up to an F12 by then.

    Currently got a 812SF and a Lusso T in the garage. Used to own a 488 GTB and a Pista that I miss quite a bit. Looking to add a 296 GTB to the stable to add back the missing mid-engine fun!

    I did. Or, rather, as a prerequisite for getting the GTS within any "reasonable" amount of time...

    Adding 296 GTS to a Roma. Cal T is my DD. Regret giving up my most recent, a GTC4Lusso and F12, but having a new local dealer has made a big difference.

    Same here. Love the 458 and the brakes always frightened me.

    I would argue that a manual 599 to F12 is not a move up -
