    The 296 does feel more athletic / limber, whereas the SF90 is a bulkier. I'm sure the former is faster, but not necessarily more fun. Just my $0.02. Both great cars, and if I had to choose 1, it would still be the SF90 because I like the overall package better.

    Someone jumped with his Urus over his Aventador. You never know and maybe one day we could see a Purosangue jumping over a Pista. I think that will never happen and so can only imagine what it would be like.:)

    Frankly, Ferrari should not offer shields on this particular car....looks far better without never mind the tradition associated with Ferrari's fitted with shields!

    Although the jumping Urus I mentioned is an exotic yellow, it is devoid of any flag or number.:D

    The first picture was taken last June, and it shows several Purosangues leaving the factory's old gate for a trip from Maranello to Le Mans.

    The second picture was taken almost half a century ago and shows Enzo near the same factory gate, waving at what appears to be a 1964 Ferrari 330 GT.

    The third picture is the result of putting the black-and-white version of the modern image with the Purosangues over the old one with Enzo.

    Good one! Though I have not seen most people not liking this car purely on looks. The core complaint is Ferrari should never make an SUV; and this will make it supposedly slow and compromised, so it will harm Ferrari brand equity.

    If a person said to me they will never ever date a redhead, i doubt what dress and makeup their wearing will change that.

    I look at Porsche and the Cayenne, and Macan and they don’t seem to be hurting the 911 or destroyed the Porsche brand, dare I say it made both stronger?

    ***
    People that don’t abhor SUVs, that also say this SUV is the ugliest or even near the bottom, I argue are few and far between.

    The Cayenne and Macan probably saved Porsche.

    I LOVE the Big Mac, always have, always will. When Mcdonald's reintroduced the McRib, it didn't REPLACE my beloved two all-beef patties on a sesame bun; it was just another option that some people can't seem to get enough of.

    I didn't go to food forums, decrying the McRib supposed shortcomings. Nor did I claim it spelled doom for the house of Ronald.

    I was happy for McRib enthusiasts on my way to the counter to order my Old Faithful and a side of fries.

    I enjoy pointing out these silly social manifestations; that's why I'm a Larry David fan.

    Love McD but adding ribs etc has moved them from their core business of hamburgers and fries delivered with speed. The diversity of menu has slowed delivery of the food to the consumer some. Let’s hope the PS doesn’t slow delivery of other Ferraris- it’s slow enough already!
