    Hi Guys-

    Anyone have this option on the car? Any thoughts or comments? Noticed that it is now available as an add-on option and wondering how people like it. The actual view thru the mirror is a little narrow and this seems like it could be pretty useful.

    Had a rental car with it and did not like it. One cannot look in the mirror to the back seat.

    I’ve mentioned before, the problem is the focal distance. When you look in a mirror, the focal point is far behind you. When you look at a screen, the focal point is a couple of feet. This is an issue if you wear progressive or bifocal glasses. The screen placement should be on the dash IMO.

    Otherwise they are great because of the wide coverage! On my truck, I can have a rear view camera activated on the infotainment screen while retaining my mirror. Best of both worlds. That’s what they should offer…

    I have one on my C8 Corvette. I never use it for this reason. Also I hate that daylight running lights flicker when seen on the screen. So annoying.

    The only real use for this is in very specific situation for short periods of time when you need a wide angle view. Otherwise, give me a mirror every day.

    IMO, the rear camera mirror is not ready for prime time. Its not a Ferrari issue. Its a tech issue.

    While not the Puro, I opted against it for my 12C order. I just don't like it.

    The Purosangue has a huge advantage. That you can also set the digital mirror as a normal mirror. So you have both options depending on which is better. A super feature from Ferrari.

    Love it on our Mercedes EQV bus, but don’t need that in the Ferraris.
