    Also, looks like it will mimic the 812's vertical strakes and vents design at the front bumper side extremities.

    Always ready to be surprised but I think what you see here is what you get.

    The front looks nice (hope it's better executed than the Speciale's) and maybe the rear spoiler will be active, but that would be a stretch I think.

    Finally a pic of this car with the final (i guess) bodywork. Hopefully it won't be unveiled with those wheels...still nice but a bit old now.

    Agreed and its a perfect match compared to the spy shot

    I think it looks pretty aggressive, will be much better uncovered.

    Nothing major aesthetically. Really hope for good tech news like E-control turbos and maybe 4ws?

    I doubt we will see electric turbos on the SV because from what I know e-turbos require a dedicated 48v system to operate them, which would add weight... And on a 'lightweight' model that would be somewhat counterproductive.

    Not necessarily. F12 tdf for example had 4ws which doubtlessly added weight. As long as it improves performances overall it’s not out of the realm

    I would love to see "e-turbo" or something similar. This would be fascinating because it should allow for an NA exhaust note while having even less turbo lag, or perhaps such fast response as to say there is near zero lag. And it would be something different. In the picture with all the camouflage, the car appears to have blue light covers. I don't know if this helps or hurts function, but it could look fantastic with the right spec. I'm excited to learn more about this car!

    PS- great thread, thank you all!

    I am thinking the blue light tint is to hide a vent medial to the headlight

    Thank you for taking the time to share some details!

    Rims plus front and rear bumpers all made from carbon fiber is a bold move...

    If they count the F40 LM, then we're above 720 PS.
    Anyway, thanks for all those pictures, amazing work!

    Wow! Thanks for the information! It looks like they've done just about everything they could to reduce weight.

    Assuming they are talking about the V8 series, them the increases have been 5-6% with 458 to speciale @ 6.25% which puts this one at just over 700bhp. So say 10 more for CV. Remains to be seen how much more on top.


    Looking at the slides, it looks like it is going to all come down to how it drives vs the Macca
