    Ferrari just trademarked the name 849 Testarossa, this may be the new Icona.

    Anyone with any insight?

    Ferrari almost lost the trademark for "Testarossa" for lack of use, but managed to recently prevail in a court case. I'm not surprised to see a new trademark application. May not have anything to do with a car.

    Actually it's probably the MSRP, $849,000.

    It's official- the 849 Testarossa is the SF90 successor... I have no opinions yet. -- well, except I think it had a front end accident at the factory.

    Guess we finally know what 849 means.

    8 cylinders
    4 tires
    9 different cars glued together

    Can we not add that car to the Testarossa / BB subforum? I spend time there and don’t want to see such things, even by accident.

    This new model will drop the value of even the rattiest Testarossa.

    On the contrary, I think this will make the 84-91 model even more coveted. Nostalgia and all that.

    You don't like the 512 TR?

    it's technologically advanced but I don't care for the look. call me pedantic but I don't consider the M/TR as "Testarossa"

    Ya thats pretty pedantic. If you consider an 84-91 a testarossa... Then I don't see how a logical person could say a 512tr isn't.
