    I wouldn't go that far but I certainly do not understand the wheel arches at all.

    Seems certain contracts for a brandnew PS have recently been cancelled because some 812 GTS owners have sold their car recently. Now their 812 GTS is gone and they won't get a PS either.

    I heard a similar story for SP1/2 owners who lost their SP3 contract because they sold their SP1/2

    this largely makes sense because of the profits

    selling an 812 gts wouldn't have made big profits so I think most sales will have been for 'innocent' reasons and it's harsh to deny them a slot based on it

    really looking out to the first test revieuws.

    This weekend, we (Belgium Ferrari dealer customers) will see the car in Copenhagen, Denmark for a official presentation.
    The dealership has rented a boeing as personal flight …

    We're going to have a good laugh when they come to pick you up at home to beg you to buy the electric cars...

    Maybe for UK market, but for USA market 'big profits' (30% + from original purchase price)) are routinely occurring

    I am sure the wheel arches have some practical function and are not just a cynical design ploy for more carbon options.

    Especially when you sue them for poaching your allocation.

    So my dealer has submitted my name to the mothership for consideration, but I’m not holding out hope that I’ll be allocated one any time soon. Tbh I was also slightly apprehensive driving around in a half mil daily and wasn’t sure that there would be that much demand for it due to its price. Given Ferrari halting orders due to high demand, I was obviously completely wrong. :)

    Then yesterday I stopped by my mb dealer to say hi and saw this thing that someone paid $510k for ($360k sticker), and felt much better about the prospect of a PS purchase and its price point. :)

    Dumbest decision ever!!!! And that's saying a lot coming from GM! ;)

    If true, they will have completely killed the only decent thing left in their brand. I guess they forgot all those Brand Marketing lessons they made us sit thru?

    Lol, nothing surprises me anymore in a world where cover models are obese, Kardashians are considered brilliant and Ferrari builds SUV's. :)

    yeah, the electric thing is a fad. once it switches, all the rich people will revolt and Ferrari will be no more. It's simply 'too much horsepower' and 'too quick' and way too much 'tech' and they look way to 'avant garde.'

    We need to get back to the 'good ol days.'
