    Logic and commonsense dictates that one buys what he/she likes and ignores the items they dislike, surely you aren’t forced to like every single item one manufacturer produces, there is something for everyone, variety is good, freedom of choice is the basis of a free unencumbered society, how narrow minded and backward thinker one must be in order to act so irrational over an object they do not desire?

    I am the forever optimist and I refused to believe that the average individual can not do better with so much education and information at their fingertips but I never cease to be amazed by the incapacity of the average individual of rational thought, surely one can not be that stupid!? Unfortunately the evidence suggests otherwise.

    I drove the Puro on ice and absolutely loved it, we were 4 adults in the car and it was so spacious and comfortable, perfect family Ferrari, my assumption is that most will be bought by multiple Ferrari owners but even as a singular sports/fun car it still makes sense, it’s a very good car and it’s what the majority of the market wants (otherwise they wouldn’t be sold out).

    Looking forward to mine, it will be my DD.

    I reckon we probably ordered our cars at similar time and I am still waiting! Not long now though as it is officially finished and on the way!

    I went through a personal journey with a particular car:

    1. Initial Skepticism: At first, I wasn't too keen on the idea. When the offer came, I casually dismissed it, thinking, "Why would I want or need that car?"
    2. Intrigued and Captivated: However, when the car was officially unveiled, I was pleasantly surprised by its appearance, sound, and practicality. It piqued my curiosity and ignited my interest.
    3. Initially Ordering Without Commitment: I decided to place an order, but my intention was not to keep it permanently. I was fortunate to be considered an early ambassador by the dealer, but it felt like a part of the game among Ferrari enthusiasts, collecting cars merely to keep the mothership happy. The price tag also seemed ridiculous for an SUV.
    4. Impressed by Positive Media Reviews: To my surprise, the car received overwhelmingly positive reviews from the media. Typically, journalists find some flaws to criticize, especially in vehicles of this caliber. The only recurring criticism was its high cost, which was justifiable for those who are budget-conscious.
    5. A Complete Change of Heart: Once I had the chance to drive the car myself, my perspective underwent a dramatic shift. I was blown away with its performance, the melodious engine notes which no other SUV V8 Turbo can produce, superior craftsmanship, gorgeous looks, practicality, exclusivity, and, above all, its potential to create cherished family memories. It became clear to me that this was what truly mattered in the grand scheme of things.
    So, I went straight to the dealer and chose a spec that is suitable for driving everyday.

    And yes this car occupies my head a lot. Way more than I thought it would!

    I didn’t love the look of the car until I saw it in the wild on the street, I think it is the best looking SUV ever made, very elegant but at the same time aggressively powerful.

    At the end of the day life is to short not to snap up opportunities if you can when they come your way, those who bit*h all they will be left with is bitterness, as they say those who can do those who can’t hate and/or argue against it.

    I agree with you in all you say but we unfortunately no longer live in a free unencumbered society. The doors to that society started closing years ago as evidenced by the EV-zero carbon footprint mandates our governments are imposing on us on a nearly daily basis. Get and drive the V12 PS (and all our other Ferraris for that matter)while you can. In a few years it may become extinct on the road as it may be outlawed to drive one that hasn’t been converted to some zero carbon BS.

    The extravagant owner of this Purosangue, certainly in search of great originality, resorted to "pixelmania". Others had already done it previously, as was the case with the owner of this Jeep.

    I was looking for such color pictures with names, that would be wonderful if you could merge all those together in first post of a new thread please :) I still got like one year to choose my PS specs, since I'm late in the queue, so I need to see as many of those as possible :D

    I prefer the shields without the Purosangue! :D (relax, just joking!)

    I have no qualms about a person putting shields or anything else they like on their car if they pay for it. I do understand the argument that they are for track cars based on Ferrari's history but IMO it doesn't make sense for Ferrari to leave that money on the table. It's all about maximizing profit now. They do have the highest profit margin per vehicle in the entire industry. Would be interesting to see how much of that comes from overpriced add-ons like shields and carbon cupholders. Do they offer paint to sample yet?

    Hi, do you think Brozo Masaru is the closest color to Rose Gold in Ferrari colors?
