    I like and respect Jim and really like what he’s doing however I will say that I grow a bit tired of this sort of posturing from him. It started with the P4/5 and really no matter how pretty the P4/5 is, it’s simply a regurgitation of the original P3/4 which he and his organization had nothing to do with. I think some of his companies cars look good.

    Another example of butresses i don't like - hate the discontinuity on the side of body.

    You are thinking of the F512M road car. This is indeed a very special 1970 512S racing car converted to M spec (Modificata) in 1971. 1 of 25 cars.

    Will this count for one of the 5 cars revealed this year and one of the 15 new Ferrari models revealed before 2022?

    logically not. Counting 3 one-offs per year that alone makes it 12 in 4 years.

    A few words from the creative director, Frank Liew:

    "I am beyond humbled to announce the launch of our latest Blackbird project - PROTOTIPO - a short documentary film in association with Ferrari, chronicling one of the most unique one-off journeys in the history of the marque."

    "This was a long journey both personally and professionally, a process that directly spanned over 8 months and indirectly over the past 5 years. Barriers were broken, rules were bent, and a lot of people on both sides of the brand fence put themselves on the line and placed their faith in us. It has truly been an honour to have been involved in the overall project in the capacity that I was given, from the early concept design stages to final completion. For this, I am truly grateful for my involvemen

    Logic would dictate that this project is 488 based and not a LaFerrari version. Though the intriguing comment from Frank Liew "Barriers were broken, rules were bent" perhaps signals a new direction for Ferrari one off builds. No 488 has been built with a V12 even though some have lobbied for that build spec in the past.
