Thread for 296 Videos

Is it the same as this one?

 

Yes, I have called them, because I liked the colour, too. It is a wrap, no official painterd Ferrari colour

 

Seems strange to be a wrap as it has the full Assetto Fiorano package

 

Sorry again, but it has NOT the Fiorano package. The exterior Carbon is also from Novitec and the front is a look-a-like.

Check out the doors ( Matt Carbon) and the kick plates , they have the Assetto Fiorano branding , even Forza does not produce these

 

I am talking about the car in THIS video. While I was writing my last answer others postet threads and that why you might think I mean the car with the fiorance Stripes. But all I have said is about the car in the Novitec video.

The car with the Assetto stripes is Rosso Imola. Looks the same, but it isn't.

 

Rosso Imola? I was thinking Rosso Maranello or Rosso Portofino. Rosso Imola has more orange, no?

 

With that car I can't tell for sure, but the Factory cars with the Argento Stripe are all Rosso Imola. I guess in postproduction the sliders were moved a little to much as some colours are very prominent.

As I wrote in another thread I ordered a few speedshapes with different colours that might become my 296 GTS. I wasn't able to take a foto that in samehow came close to the original colour when using my iPhone. It is better (but not good) with a decent dedicated cam. That my idea why colours in some videos look totally different than others.

One example is Rosso Magma, which was also one of my choices. When you see the videos of Daytona SP3 cars, it is an intensive red, deeper that Rosso Corsa and it is intensive red in the sun. A few weeks ago I visited my Ferrari Dealer and took a look for some cars (concerning the colours). The Rosso Magma 296 GTB was parked in a car park. First colour I noticed was a red-orange pop out colour. Nothing compared to those videos. That is very confusiong when looking for colours through the net

 

I hear you on the reds. I went round and round on the reds for a Roma Spider, but no matter how many pictures and videos I viewed there was never any consistency. Tried Magma, Fuoco, Monza, and California. Finally gave up and went with blue.

 

On Autobahn

 

Firstly it was not a GPS speed, but it was certainly plus 300km/h.

Secondly despite the warning at the bottom of the vid , Autobahn and experienced driver, you have a guy with a camera strapped to his head , one facing rearward and one on the Tachometer /Speedometer passing trucks at a speed differential of up to 200 km/h in a car without any roll cage and nothing more than a lap/sash seat belt.

I am glad I was not on the road than day. This is the sort of thing that should be on the track. The car was moving around a lot and it simply does not have the ground effect for those speeds . Crazy stuff!

 

McLaren = mainly track focused + no electric steering / 296 = road focused + gorgeous + top performances + great on a track (in a word, IMO, the 296 has the best of both worlds)

That is nuts ! Driving on the autobahn and having a closing speed over a truck circa 200km/h. It might be legal however it should only be on a track

 

Did the standing mile in less than 25 seconds despite tire spin off the line. Now that’s crazy.

Now in Blu

 

At this point, I feel like we all know what the car looks like, both inside and out.

 

Well yeah but there are still new review and 'comparo' videos coming out. Which is odd, considering the first ones are two years old and now some influencers/channels are finally getting around to it. I give that to the delay in production in 2022, not a lot of them on the street for the non-magazine crews to get their hands on.
