    A Ferrari s enthusiast buy a mechanical engine, not an electric engine near of a pizza with meters of cables
    He s also buying a mechanical sound wich the origins remind the race, not an artificial sound
    And, i m thinking he likes equally a light weight for his magical feed back...

    They favor these policies because they get votes and they get votes due to a vastly uniformed public who support such notions just so they can feel good about themselves on a daily basis.

    It s the child of the Europeans norms, and actually Ferrari is just becoming a product ! It s just a business, i don t see passion nowadays, sorry...

    For me, such a weight don t define a sportscar. it s too hevy and you lost the feed back.It s my opinion. Power is just a joke, how is it possible to use it on open roads !??? I prefer a lighter car less powerful.
    Put the SF 90 on the balance, and you could see the real weight, and not the marketing weight.

    a bunch of cynical politicians pandering to a wave of climate "hysteria" by making demands at huge cost for little real benefit. Except to perhaps maintain their cozy spot at the public trough. ;)

    Sorry, but this kind of thinking is obsolete.
    According to Pierro, Enzo would have loved hybrids if they made his cars faster. That sounds about right, the Old Man was all about power!!!

    Rest assured that the Stradale will murder any other Ferrari, except for the LaFerrari.

    Again, nonsense and projections.

    A Ferrari enthusiast enjoy the cars and the Ferrari life. That means driving first and foremost along with participating in what is available of events etc. Using the cars, racing in Challenge and participating in the Classiche events, Corse Pilota and all the rest of it, By your logic, someone that is a member of the FXX-K program is less of an enthusiast than someone who drives his gated 360 occasionally but has no desire to go further.
    And that whole idea of "you can't use the power" is fairly subjective, not to mention outdated. Fact is that we as humans and drivers evolve with the power. If what you say was true, we would be stuck decades back when this was first said.


    What I really think speaks against you as a Ferrari enthusiast, is the fact that you truly refuse to evolve with the marque and the automotive technology available within Ferrari. It seems like all you are thinking of is what used to be and that's how it should be. That's not what Ferrari is about, and it was most certainly not what Enzo himself was about. I suspect that you would be quite happy as a Lotus owner though.

    A bit rough IMO. day355 has some very valid points. I kinda agree with the weight argument and the mechanical argument and have said that once Ferrari goes all electric - I am out, as it comes another appliance controlled by software. Plenty enthusiasts feel the same way IMO and Ferrari need to consider their market before using "automotive technology" like every other manufacturer - look a Porsche - Taycan is an abomination.

    Case in point - I was at Frankfurt motor show and every manufacturer rolled out their EV cr*p. All the same stuff wrapped in a different skin. Incredibly boring and a future many of us wouldn't pay for in sport motoring.

    day355 is right in many aspects of the discussion

    Taycan is an abomination!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why u think so, oh no, I love it, it's a master-peace! BTW there is a very strong demand for the car, Porsche has received more than 32,000 applications for the Taycan! The future is all electric, the Q is how to do it right! And if Ferrari, Lamborghini and Porsche haven't fill the gab SOON others will do.

    I was one of those 32,000 “registrations of interest” - a fully refundable AUD$2,700 is an inconsequential commitment and is not anything like an actual deposit.

    I would not call the production model an abomination, but it fell well short of the vision portrayed by its prototype. I will probably not go through with the final order - still undecided - but I’m finding it hard to love it like I do my current ICE cars

    Likewise and I bailed. To me its an abomination in the sense that with all Porsches ability all they could come up with is this massive compromise. They have taken their eye off the ball on this one and will pay dearly

    All I see is people stuck in their old ways. They Taycan is a great accomplishment, no matter how you slice it. As for Ferraris, no one said anything about pure electric propulsion. A hybrid though is the best of both world, as demonstrated by the LaFerrari (even though that one sits on the top automotive tier, technology trickles down).

    so how would you like to define the upcoming\rumoured new 1000 hp 10500 rpm v12 car? will it be a true enthusiast car or another marketing exercise(?) like the sf90?

    Is that a new Ferrari or something else? If it is a Ferrari it will most likely be 6 times the cost of the SF90, so not much to compare...! A 1000hp V12 with a 10500 rev limiter would be my dream of dreams, but it will be one hell of a pricey machine

    According to some, this car ( rear mid engine V12 ) will replace the 812 superfast.
