    He describes it as "industrial design" which he likes. I think that tells you everything you need to know about this guy.

    I wonder when will this topic reach the enzo-must-be-rolling-in-his-grave point.

    I think he already rolled several times, starting with the SUV which by the way looks better than this car !!

    Yep, the Sketch Monkey has his own definition of "Industrial!"

    First thing that comes to my mind is "sled", it looks like a sled.

    I will withhold judgement until I see one in person. Reminded me of how I thought the F50 was ugly...until I saw one!

    Photos don’t do proportions right. Really need to see it lined up with other good looking cars in person to form a good opinion.

    Yup. I felt the same too when the F50 came out. It was until I had the opportunity to get a ride in one round Willow Springs and immediately fell in love with it.

    It’s the v6 bit that’s the real elephant in the room .. remember the xj220. … they never sold .. I think Ferrari have invited people to buy but convinced they haven’t sold the allocation !

    I guess putting the horse on some recent Ferraris is like putting lipstick on a pig !

    I agree. Let’s face it. Ferrari blew it with this thing. It barely has more power than an SF90 and it has the same power plant as a 296 basically.

    This was a golden opportunity for Ferrari. They should have made this a hybrid naturally aspirated mid engine V12. Even with a similar 1,200 bhp that would have been special. That would have been WORTH $4mm. Hell that would have been worth $6mm.

    At that price tag, production numbers, and with all that tech that will be questionable to maintain, it will be interesting to see if, and for how long, these sell for over msrp 2nd hand.

    I wouldn't be surprised if they added a bunch more with an Aperta run. Gotta keep the shareholders happy after all.

    I've been trying and I cannot find one part of this car that I find appealing. What a dud. What a shame.
