    Hopefully you can specify a Tailor Made option of Dolby Surround sound speakers banging out the finest 6.5l V12 ICE soundtrack controlled by the right pedal.

    Like the optional carbon fibre cupholder, I expect it will be expensive.

    Lack of posts just shows lack of enthusiasm for the current electrical future.

    Amongst us. However, they have to look to the future. Enthusiasts tend to be focused on the past. I don't love the idea of an EV Ferrari today, but I think the writing is on the wall.

    Great quote I saw today: 'An electric Ferrari would be like a Fender Strat without the strings: lovely design, no music!'

    Much like Ferrari building an SUV it was bound to happen eventually but without the glorious exhaust note, is it really still a Ferrari?

    I am sure the design will be incredible. The assumed lack of sound is what makes us cringe. However I am excited nonetheless.

    Don't worry they will probably do what BMW did with the i8 pump some engine sound via the stereo. Not the same clearly but having a dozen different engine exhaust sounds fully selectable would be a nice party trick. I'll take an F50 with Capristo sound please...

    I would like to keep an open mind, but I hope they will not pump sounds in via the stereo. I think if it has to be all electric (which does have some amazing advantages) then they should figure out how to make the sound part of the experience as engaging and exciting as possible.
