    Okay now. Very excited about plunging into the world of V12. Feels like finally growing up into a 12-cylinder. Will still keep the 458 though. Any last word of wisdom from the wise one in this forum before I buy the FF ? Thanks!!

    Great combination. I have a 458 and F12. They are so different for all the right reasons. Enjoy

    FFs are phenomenal cars! Nothing comparable on the road, in my opinion. Ferrari managed to build a car that's actually practical, without sacrificing performance. We have a client who drives his daily (also has an F430). We're going to help him install a bike rack on the FF! ;) Enjoy and congrats!

    The smoothness of the seemingly endless supply of horse power is indeed very impressive. This is my first time with the v12. The car's break is a bit more twitchy and very powerful, so I am adjusting to it. The car interior is very luxurious even with basic setup. The leather is better and thicker than the California and 458. I think the sound insulation is great. I could have effortless conversation when the engine is at 5k RPM. The suspension also inspires more confidence than my 458 and is close to the Evora 400 which is my daily. FYI, the Evora suspension is something I am still very amazed by.

    I begin to see why there are some comments about this being the ferrari that many would miss after trading in and then buy again. To the FF owners, I think we are very lucky, not because we have Ferraris, but because Ferrari made this car for us so our family will not feel left out anymore, and this definitely is a legit Ferrari. Plus, I have fallen for the simultaneous elegance and muscular power exuded through the last pinnifarina design. Look at the pic!

    My only complaint was I should have bought one sooner. So fun and raw-ish. Now three years later went to Lusso. Great but different. Enjoy it - they are amazing.

    *****************- bike rack with suction cups is solution most use. Can do on any car even 458/488.

    No reason to put anything on permanently

    My issue is the insulation. I had to put different cats to heat anything
