WHY AM I UNDERWHELMED ?? .. NOD TO THE PLEXI DAYTONA IS COOL.
NOT SURE ABOUT THE CONVERTIBLE BUTTRESS ... WOULD HAVE BEEN COOL
IF THEY WERE OMITTED..
HEAVIER ?? REAR END OF SF90 ?? -- I'M SURE THIS THREAD WILL GO ON FOR A SPELL

 

When I first saw via email from Ferrari, my thoughts went straight to a Daytona. ‍♂️

I like the car--don't really care for the name but who cares about that.

I think the screens inside are overkill and won't age well. Hopefully the buttons and electronic stuff is better than the purosanguae / sf90 / 296

probably will stick with my 812 though, not sure there is enough of a difference to upgrade. never felt the 812 was underpowered

 

my 812 has an equally stupid name!!

 

Don’t care for it at all.

Then again, I’m not the target market (which will probably like it).

 

I agree with others, I see homage to the Daytona.

F167 is quite a bit bigger than the 812, that's why all the black out stuff to make it visually appear smaller..

76mm longer
205mm wider [EU pole side-impact regulation makes the doors very thick]
16mm taller
20mm shorter wheelbase

apparently Ferrari is quite worried about selling out, pricing is quite low considering all the inflation that has occurred since the 812
345EURO base (about $365K using current exch rate)
spider 380EURO base (about $402K)

the "active aero" =waste, all that extra weight and complexity for all of 50kg downforce at high speeds...

 

after watching a few videos it is not as bad as my knee jerk reaction, the main issues are as follows:

wheels in the coupe press cars are awful, remind me of how lambo went all angular, and it accentuates the rear of the car which is also too lambo like
the spider shown with different wheels looks much better, and in general the spider is better looking overall with top down
noise regulated but i'm sure aftermarket will fix that
two tone body parts reminds me of Mclaren designs, the rear black spoiler section doesn't work for me

all in all it's not bad, i like it over the 812, but i still think the F12 with the classic front grille and circular rear tail lights wins the beauty contest

 

Max of 76 decibels for a V12 that revs to 9500 rpm?!?! You sure about this? That would be SO lame!!
I’m gonna keep my mouth shut regarding the looks…

 

Forgot to insert quote previously…

 

Looks good in the front but a bit ugly in the back. Pretty much the opposite of the girls I usually go out with…

 

I cant even pronounce the last 2 Ferrari models.
This car is UGLY.

 

Jesus H it's hideous.

 

The black painted area at the back makes no sense to me. Might look better body colour.

 

Hmmmm. Definitely not what I was expecting. I was expecting something more sophisticated than the 812 but they went cleaner and simpler. Hmmm. Not sure. The Daytona nod wasn't necessary and because it's been badly copied so much it make this look like the copies. The rear is clearly designed for the spyder's beauty, not the coupe's. Hmmm. I actually like the interior mini screen.
With all that being said, the more images, vids and angles I see, the more it seduces. lol

 

If you say it in Italian it sounds better. Dodici Cilindri - Well, not much better.

 

What the heck is that design and name? I feel this is a car Ferrari designed just to punk their customers… “let’s build a disaster of a car and laugh at everyone who will buy one just because”.

Was really excited about this car, but that’s just a great disappointment. Car will likely sell out because it seems to me this car means the same for their V12 as the F8 was to their V8, a tribute that draws inspiration from various versions before it.

The F8 is beautiful, this is a disappointment, still going to hold off on the car until Schmee150 let's us know his thoughts on the car.

 

I think it's nice. I don't like the horrible stock wheels, and the greyish stuff too much. i think make it all the body colour and we have a good deal

 

Agree, the 812 had it's detractors but it blended classic and more modern. This new car would honestly perhaps be better fitted into the Icona range in terms of design.

 

I see Daytona

IMO the name of the car has to be pronounced in Italian just like the Purosangue. If it isnt it just sounds funny and abnormal.

Doh-dichee chill-indree ( 12 cylinders )

the two tone cockpit and rear hatch seem out of place although i do see what they were trying to create an illusion of an open air cockpit. F12 still shines brighter to me.

 

Shmee??? I'm waiting on the Doug Score. LOL

 

How much was the 812 GTS?
