Replacement Update for SF90 (849 Testarossa revealed)

Can someone photoshop it without the black bands? I bet it would look ok like that.

I have an XX coming. I feel lucky that I have that and not this abortion.

 

More than you can afford pal … Ferrari.

 

My thoughts exactly.. going to let the dust settle, doesn’t even feel like a SF90 replacement, feels like a heavier F80 with a V8. Not sure I would be happy if I had an XX still to be delivered..

 

Ferrari must be invoking the history of the Scuderia emblem from WW 1 with the biplane front end >

So now we have the FIVE setting?

Ferrari's version of AI driving the car for you.

Interesting.

 

"more power" = 20HP over about 1000 not even a pro can feel the difference

 

Poor and SF90XX owners do not belong in the same sentence

 

65.000 euro more than the 12Cilindri in Italy, things are getting real expensive

 

Shame they used such an iconic name "Testarossa" from such a beautiful car, on such an ugly modern car that carries no real likeness or design elements from the original.

 

First reaction - I really like it except the black stripe across the hood... they keep doubling down on that... don't like it on the 12C or the F80 either

The design of the gear shifter in the cockpit is really cool

Agree.. Testarossa name they should have used on the SP3 instead of Daytona... since it has the cheesegrater rear

Instead - the Daytona name should have been used instead of "12Cilindri"

Like they should have done F60 and F70 instead of Enzo and LaFerrari.... but I digress..... maybe I'm just not Italian enough to understand

 

SF90XX is limited, 849 Testarossa not and that’s the big difference. People nowadays buy cars that are rare. XX is 500-700 over msrp. And 849 looks stupid

 

Serious brakes on a Ferrari - it was about time
410 mm front, 372 mm rear.
Another interesting feature is the relatively narrow rear tires (285).

 

the only redeeming quality it could have will be the sound, please don't let Ferrari sh!lt the bed on this car like the others........

 

what does 849 mean other than 8 cylinder.

 

This looks like the design brief was ‘throw everything at it and hope for the best.’ Over-styled, incoherent, like five interns each did a section in isolation and someone glued the pieces together at the end. Peak collage, zero elegance. A tragic reminder that Ferrari can no longer design a beautiful car to save their lives.

This contraption is less Ferrari, more Frankenstein.

 

Would be better…

Personally, I will not elaborate, but I am ashamed of what this brand has become...
Even the cars on the SEGA and Atari consoles had more style !

 

This car cemented the fact, that this company is totally lost at the moment.

 

you are so close to the truth...

 

It seems to me they have taken elements of 512 BB, particularly the overall shape of the front and the engine lid cooling vents and then decided to call it a name that evokes nothing of the great 50s TR and certainly none of the style icon of the 80's. A very curious decision if one understands Ferrari history but perhaps that might be the point, create a new narrative around this famous name.

I do think it looks better in the normal studio pictures versus the normal for Ferrari not so good press pictures.

The big question this is almost a F80 for a lot less money and styling wise it has a lot of F80 elements, highly unusual to do that.

It really needed a V12 in my opinion.

 

Imagine if the Testarossa ends up being rarer than the XX
