812 Replacement Rumors

Either a mass hallucination or a joke. No way Puro front end. I’m dumber than six rocks and know that. Looks like a 296 to me.

Everybody is commenting on different cars….pic w people sitting/standing has silver? W tri stripe 296…. Screen in back looks like puro w 70th anniv. Style colored roof?? (Green?). But,..the teaser photo of hood w/ the palm tree reflections ? Nobody seems to have noticed it..

 

The silver car with the strips is a 296
The car on the screen behind it is a Purosangue
The hood of the car w/ the palm tree reflection looks like a 296 (short wide hood) no place for a V12

+ you can’t really see anything tying headlights together in some sort of Daytonesque way that has been commented….

 

Yeah seriously … is Ferrari going to score a No Leak Shut Out against us?!

 

I think it would wreck it if a leak came now

 

One week to go, looks like they are going to win.

Is This going to be the F167 and the 296 Vs launching together ? as there is a lot of 296 images going around and the 296 Vs is meant to launch soon too

 

At this point I don't want a leak, would ruin the excitement. I can wait a week.

 

I don't think that's very plausible but if it did I'd be very happy and my wallet would be very upset.

 

for a F167 launch we are seeing sooo much 296 its not funny. Unless someone knows the 296 Vs date I was told soon

 

Z

Zero chance of 296 VS now - will be the two variants of the F167. 296 VS is scheduled for next year. Australasia will get the first reveal of the cars in Queensland in June - both variants will be there.

 

Flavio M must be having a good giggle reading the Fchat comments on the F167

Ciao Flavio

 

Anyone got any idea if the F167 will be at Goodwood? Going for the first time this year

 

yep, this thread has become comical, never known an imminent new model thread to disintegrate so badly…

 

Gents,

Do we agree that we are seeing the front of the F167 in the below pic? With the 2 light bars replicating the Daytona headlights, and the red (backlit?) Cavallino in the middle?

Perhaps reverse lights.

 

1 thing I know for certain is I'm convinced it's the F167, the 6 day count down begins now and I'm my excitement of anticipation has ramped up

 

Is the release date May 2nd or May 3rd?

 

I believe the car was shown to people last night.

 

May 2

 

So

Sorry, no. Probably it's literally the other way round: back lights (pair #1 of 2).

 

Is there a quick summary of what we know / what is to be expected? If not, here's my take.

- N/A F140 V12 with a rev limiter similar too or higher than 812C
- Design wise the car appears to have a similar wheelbase to 812, but will probably sit lower allround with a lower overall height
- Design should in some form pay tribute to the 365 GTB/4
- New headlights deviating from Roma and 296 design
- Purosangue similar rear lights with individual rear brake lights connected by a light strip
- Possibly a closed rear section like 812C or glass solution like the 575 SuperAmerica
- Interior similar to Purosangue
- Based on input from dealers who have attended the factory viewing of the car, said to be quite similar to renders from isot in this thread
- Some users reporting orders being open in MODIS for both GTB and GTS, other dealers reporting only F167 GTB orders being opened in MODIS. Either way strong bias towards both GTB and GTS being available early on.

 

As the reveal of the SuperAmerica approaches, I reviewed some comments made (quoted below) by the notable members here who viewed the car this winter and, of course what has been gleaned from the various prototypes, and made a few final tweaks to my sketches.

How do you think the interior of the car will be brand new ?
