    How far from the real deal? It's been a while since the last time I took a decent look at the published spy shots or at the various renders.

    No idea if it is real but the only part still really open to question is the C pillar and the integration of the rear doors which neither the leak nor the spy pictures (under the camo) really show. Personally I would be surprised if the design didn't disguise the rear door handle in some way. Guess we'll know soon enough.

    Hahahaha, the ironic thing too is it’s from a Russian. Sometimes I wonder if folks think I have sock puppets on this forum.

    Ask Nikita Chiuko how long been working at Ferrari.

    :)

    This forum teaches me something new about the world everyday. Things make more and more sense….

    Nothing wrong with having renders, but to claim this is a leak from Ferrari SpA...

    This is from SuperCarBlondie and makes it clear it's their render.

    I quote
    "with the help of leaked images, rumors, and technology, we've been able to put together the first reveal of the brand new Ferrari Purosangue."

    (sigh)

    Don't take my word for it.

    Start at 3:33


    As I said, it's close to the excellent job Chuiko did.

    I did like this quote

    The reason why Ferrari started selling cars was to finance his Formula 1 team. In fact, he sold to Fiat to keep the Formula 1 team going.

    Now Ferrari is the most successful Ferrari team of all time. This success is what gives them the name and brand recognition to easily sell their cars so it's like this beautiful harmonious cycle.

    If you showed this to Enzo Ferrari, what would he say? Hell yeah, Fratello, Andiamo! cuz, after all, Enzo Ferrari was a businessman, and to be honest, this is a good business.

    ROFL

    :)

    But what do I know that the 'purists' here don't?

    From what I hear Ferrari will make more SUV than people think, around 2000 each year 3 to 4 year production.

    The car will have sucide rear doors!
    812 comp/sp3 engine, may be detuned, the car will not be designed to go off road and 22 inches wheels front + 23 inches rear more sports tourer like big RS 6

    Not so far. There is an huge mistake with the headlights and many others little disproportions.. the headlights area is empty! There is a blade of light only.

    LOL what? This design language is simple and dated as *uck. They have been using it since the 458 or smth. 10 + years. It can be used for a sportscar(not really. It's old), but not for the brand new suv. Stop smoking cheap weed man. This is a joke.
    Hope it's a cheap render.

    Maybe this has been asked already, but when does Ferrarichat plan to add a Purosangue group to the Model Specific Discussions? As of tomorrow there will be actual owners, right?

    It is a render, but it's pretty close. Sounds like Ferrari just lost a sale from you; I'm sure they are now very worried.

    Fchat adds sections after the official model name is announced.

    But in this case, @rob lay has mentioned it might just stay in the Off Topic forum ;)

    If nothing else the Purosangue deserves recognition as the last naturally aspirated V12 Ferrari, if not also the last without at least one electric motor lurking somewhere in the drivetrain. Personally I do not recognize 65 degree V12s as true Ferraris, even though I own one. But I am 68 years old, and Boomers with this mentality are literally a dying breed. There may be some who hold that without a solid rear axle, leaf springs, drum brakes (of questionable efficacy), and body on frame, it's not a true Ferrari!

    I considered OT, but for now just General Ferrari Discussion. Besides the one thread in V12's I moved, there were like a dozen more already naturally in General Ferrari Discussion.
