    I have to say that a dealer suggesting this might be the FUV, seems shockingly ill informed. The car has even been seen kn the wild wearing camo as of late.

    I'm quite sure this will be built on the same line and level as the Porto, not on the V12/Supercar line.

    I think there is zero chance of the FUV being shown in 2 weeks. The car is more than 2 years away from production. It will be a Portofino based coupe...I am surprised your dealer would say something like that

    Anything that accelerates the Portofino depreciation is fine by me!

    Anything that accelerates the Portofino depreciation will also accelerate the Cali T depreciation.Soooo are you also fine with that?;)

    Yes! I'm busily driving my humble - but gorgeous - first generation Cali to the point where it'll be worthless on trade in!

    I think it's the third one:
    1. Portofino
    2. SF90S
    3. F169 (chassis derived from Portofino)

    The Porto and SF90 is definitely not based on the same platform. They share nothing, not even brakes from what I heard. As far as modular platforms go, I'm sure there will be a connection between the SF90 and LB. So in a sense, yes the SF90 might be a platform car, just not Port based platform.

    Not really sure that defines a tuner car. That's just sort of what Novitec Rosso does. For me, a car that appeals to high end tuners is more like the trend of 1500-2500 hp Lambos, R8's and GTR cars etc. Not sure the Porto coupè will fit in and become part of the tuner world. Not sure I will define Novitec Rosso as part of the tuner culture. It's way roo sedate and tame for that.

    Yes. I'm not saying the SF90S chassis is derived from Portofino.
    Nevertheless both cars should be based on the new "concept" of modular platform (a platform isn't a whole frame)

    I've been thinking about that lately.
    I wonder how popular this launch actually is. For this one, I don't know a single person personally, whom will be there, myself included. I know my dealer is not making as much of an occassion for this one as they did for the 812 GTS and SF90.

    What do you mean by prospects only? Not sure I quite follow. It's a car meant to sell in the thousands like the Porto, so there's no added "exclusivity" like with the Pista, SF90 or 812GTS as it's not a low volume car - anyone who wants one can get one. I think it's a pretty "regular" launch in the sense that it will be for both potential buyers as well a just clients and affiliates looking to attend a nice event. Everybody I personally know who were asked, including myself, had no interest in the car. It was more of an "Go and have a good time and see the new car" kind of thing.

    I'm sure it's going to be a fun event. Ferrari usually knows how to host a good party.:)

    I am sure it will be great, I was invited to go but this time of year for us/me is nuts! I am super booked with events and other trips. I am sure it will be a blast, supposed to be somewhere very special in Rome. I wish we could have made a trip of it :(

    I could go to the event in Rome but I don't have the official invite. Anyway, I have another clue about the name; on 14th November (same day of presentation), the movie "Le Mans 66" will be released in Italy (also in Europe?). So, the new Ferrari could be called "Ferrari XXX Le Mans".
