Yes, she's (sorry but I can't say "it" for a Ferrari ) beautiful, awesome, impressive...
For me, the only problem is the name... sorry

 

As opposed to the real premier according to their site !

"an exclusive preview for a small number of Ferrari clients will be held on April 14th at the Military Academy in Modena"

 

Despite not being my favourite ferrari, I have to say congrats to the ones that are actually going to buy it. It must be a hell of a ride, for sure.

 

How do you get the side skirt to be body color ?

 

LOL! LOL! That picture of Todt taking notes is killing me!

Guess he knows a good idea when he steals it! (Oh wait, that was Ron Dennis, right?)

 

Sorry, minor mistype...3 day deal with the hotel arranged for clients in Bologna, the "premier dinner event" in Modena at the Military Institute, and private presentations/factory tour in Maranello...

 

I looks spectacular. I love it.

 

Really loving what Ferrari did with this car. There was never a minute where my confidence in Ferrari to produce "their best road-car yet" wavered.

To be honest, I'm expecting allot out of this car. If I don't hear reviews and owners placing this atop their column of Best Ferraris Ever Driven, then I'll be disappointed.

Ferrari know the pressure of the GTO moniker, and I never doubted that when it was brought back the car it was on would be something to respect.

Amongst the new details, I have to say it's the bodywork I like the most. Form following function, and a very racy "don't mess with this" look. Perfectly aggressive and I think it shows up the Scuderia for "best dressed" as far as track-to-street special editions go.

I'm happy to see Ferrari are taking the stripped-down, track-spec'd ltd. editions to their GT line. If every new Ferrari is the best, then I can't wait to see the coming generations.

...It's well done, sans the predictable interior.

Doesn't look like it works properly in the configurator. Its standard to be body color, the CF look is an option.

 

Dan,
how did you spec yours?

 

Not specced yet - US allocations will be forthcoming shortly.

 

since I m never going to get one here an idea on the configurator...

I love the way it came out. Now only to find the $$$

 

Remembering the 16M you had--I am sure that one will be stunning as well....

Did he film during an earthquake ??

 

It's the excitement....

 

I saw one hiding under a cover last night! Can't wait to see it up close!

Neither can I...but I really can't wait to hear it being fired up or watch it pound out a lap or two at the track

 

You have been on the chase for this car since it began; as just a rumor at first!

So true. But once in a while, even a "bore" finds the acorn...

 

I thought it was " Even a blind pig can find truffles from time to time." Thats okay. Both work.

I believe you're correct...but as a paraphase, it took a long time and much effort to "bore" down enought to get it done...and so it is!
