A '99 Diablo, prefer the steering wheel without the airbag...the 6.0 has a much better presentation for the steering wheel.
Agree. The comp is embodiment of the saying “the opposite of good is perfect.” Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat
As a happy 812 Comp driver, I love it. I only have driven 120 miles so far in the few weeks I have had it ready for the road. I find it as a super incredible expression of the 812SF driving experience. Yesterday, even with the car being hot and ready, the tires being hot and in range, the car pulled so hard in high gears on a dry freeway that it spun the tires easily. Even going uphill. The amount of power is insane. Especially once you hit 6K rpm, it explodes like an insane freight train. But also one that handles very well. And that is the part that I felt was different from the 812SF, which had some roll in corners. I also love how the car looks. As you say, everyone has their own opinioReturningback to your post and @MidnightRun 's posts on the Comp, I wanted to say thanks for expressing your opinion also respecting opinions that are not yours. It makes me want to listen to your viewpoints in the future because your post shows respect for other posters in general and thus a focus on contribution as opposed to ego. So a thank you to both you and @MidnightRun.
First appearance with its own bodywork. The proportions are incredible. A classic tribute is visible in the lines of the rear, even with the disguise. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Fuel cap on the left? Unseen on a recent Ferrari, unless it's a plug-in hybrid... But no high voltage sign?
@ab08: Thank you for the quick information! Ok: spring is here in Italy and Ferrari is bringing out the winter coats again… I've quickly made a picture comparison of these coats (this “fashion“ started with the F12 Berlinetta). That's maybe why we lost ingegnere in this thread... you just can't see anything under these shapeless coats and that is exactly the goal! Well, you see a front mid engine berlinetta in all three pics and perhaps the F167 doesn't have round taillights but even that is speculation (by the way: the exhaust covers seem to be not the final deal). day355 said the difference between the 812 SF and the new F167 will be big but you can't see that in the image comparison because this stupid coat covers everything!
I wonder if the perforations in the cloth at the rear suggest the F167 will have light-bar style taillights seen in the SP3 and now spied SF90 VS.
Hopefully not. The LaF replacement is probably going to have it as well, if it's going to be heavily influenced by the 499P. Give us something different
I’m betting heavily it’s going to have a 48v mild hybrid system to add a few ponies and power an active suspension like the purosangue. That trick suspension would feel right at home in a heavy v12 to negate body roll. The question then is this a hybrid and is the 812/812 gts the last “pure v12”? Not splitting hairs just asking what you all think.
It is indeed the definitive mule. The .. mm gained are between the end of the front wheel and the windshield. The cabin is also a bit more centered
This gain between the front wheel and the windshield makes an excellent visual impact. Also looks lower than the F12/812. The proportions are excellent.
those are my impressions also. Just would add that the rear end seems more muscular, and that we don't get single nor double round taillights.
Yea would be surprised if they went with round taillights given the mule / blanket shape. A lot of good things to gleam from this. Piquing interest!!
Regarding the round taillights, I think we have seen the last of those, none of the recent new models have it. As was suggested above perhaps a light bar treatment that sounds plausible and I think would look good. From what I see in the disguised new mule this car looks like it could be a fantastic design, just the stance alone looks great and the rear treatment looks aggressive even under the disguise.
Let’s hope the rear isn’t overly busy as we have seen on the recent Ferrari designs such as the SF90 and 812C-they brought new meaning to the words butt ugly. Totally subjective of course as some here thought otherwise. Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat
I’m hoping the car has the grace and simplistic yet elegant lines of the Monza and Roma, if it does it’d be a hit! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Do we have any inkling of preview/launch dates yet? Spoke to dealer and he said he knew all releases for 2023 and it wasn’t on it. Of course there is a kilo of salt I am taking that with but just wondered. Certainly looks promising - if mild Hybrid I have the issue of do you keep the 812…… Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
Lots of talk of mild hybrid and charging ports. I'm uncertain but in the past when I've had "mild hybrid" cars they've not had a charging port. I'm hoping for pure na v12 of course but if it isn't that I'd rather something that didn't need plugging in.
