    Do you think that Ferrari would sell more cars if there was a audio segment on their dealer's web sites? For example, when you log into a dealers web site, click on a certain model and on the same page be able to hear that car at Start up/2500 rpm/4000 rpm/6500 rpm. It is to my understanding that each model has a unique sound that is a huge percentage of the appeal. Tell me what you guys think. Thank you.

    They sell all they make now. What's the advantage to them of adding a bandwidth-eating feature?

    I dont think Ferrari needs to market their products. They pretty
    much sell themselves....

    They don't advertise to the general public. Dealers do, but there are no general ads for a particular car or product. The badge sells itself. Also, there is a % of the market that just know they want one and do not know the difference between a 430 and 575, so an 8 and a 12 wouldn't matter too much.

    I dont think the buyers would take much intrest in it. The non-buyer/dreamer/tifosi with no Ferrari would enjoy that feature much more than anyone else I would think

    Nothing like listening to the sound in person, but better yet from inside the car at full speed. The first Ferrari I bought I was gonna get it even if it sounded like a Honda, the second one I bought I didn't even turn the key until it was mine.

    I don't think audio clips would help sales. Streaming video of Fiorano or inside the factory? That might make an enthusiast even more enthusiastic.
