    V12 of course, raw, unassisted (no turbos, no hybrid, pure Ferrari power)
    ITB would make it even better (individual throttle bodies)
    And, a back window to view that engine :)

    The one with no computers to glitch, while telling you "no problem".

    Rhetorical question, so I’ll go the other way.

    Speed’s a dime a dozen now—hell, even Gillette called it at five blades. So the game shifts to gimmicks and spectacle, think DuMuro's “quirks and features.”

    Picture it: a 5,000-hp EV Ferrari with cold-air thrusters, drone escorts, full active aero, fan-induced downforce, shape-shifting alloys, self-healing, color-changing paint—and of course, jump mode for shiz and giggles.

    Think this is science fiction? All of things I mention is actually 'old tech' the new stuff will be even crazier.

    None of it makes a damn difference on the street. Just like how a $1M tourbillon still tells time worse than a 99-cent used Casio.
