    They stopped having to sell their cars over a decade ago - there is no driving video no seat time reviews and all deposits will be made.
    The only thing they have to be concerned - residuals - leasing these cars with heavy depreciation could be detrimental, add people walking from deposits.
    I will lose 200+ on SF90 and lost 150 on 296 ... owners and the factory should worry about pricing, looks wise they sell out before anything is proven, people spend 10k plus just to attend the debut.
    VIPs will never lose their place in line - they are heavily rewarded, it's the ones who get burnt and dealers holding depreciating inventory. Cars depreciating at 10 - 20k per month much like catching a falling knife. Design wise - it's personal a good spec or bad spec is as much influence as the the design. The older Ferrari's rarely had stripes and aged much better - almost everything is over designed these days - there is a lot of money in how many boxes are ticked.

    You nailed it, that’s where he goes wrong, by not designing the cars with faces robs them of personality, what a terrible take, I hope he changes his mind on future models.

    If you haven’t seen it yet in person wait until you do because photos don’t do justice, the vertical stripe has a 3D element to it which seems to be lost in photos, it “squeezes” the rear end away from the front and gives volume and definition to the rear quarter panel section, from that point the rear section visually seemed arched up giving the whole rear a pouncing forward stance, quite difficult to see in photos when viewed direct on from the side profile but if you look along the side of the car towards the rear that element makes sense or a lot more sense if you still dislike lit.

    Guess Aero-centric design isn't important - it's just taken them to "top" tier performance.
    The F12 rear end - unpleasant and FF Lusso even worse.
    Not sure what era you all are looking for - it's a SF90 based - Testarossa with a Monza lifted rear.
    12Ci / 849 - imo good pair and can't wait to see the track versions.
