Ferrari Luce Reveal

[Rich B]

I think it gets worse, that picture makes the ferrari look quite petite - the same height as the R8. It’s actually a foot taller - so the whole car size needs to be increased by about 30%

Yes peak car has definitely passed but I think we all knew that.

The real drop off is in the more down to earth stuff like the Temerario which although fast sounds crap and I can't see why you'd want that over a Huracan Performante. Ditto the Revuelto over an SVJ..

[ZedLeg]

I remember people calling “the holy trinity” fat hybrids at the time

The reaction to the Luce has been a bit daft imo. It’s not like they’ve stopped making sports cars.

Reminds me of that Austin Powers sketch.

I understand that the person who comissioned the boat build that we're on is now in a prison in South America and our client got a deal on in at it was 80% complete to the original specifications.
I wonder what sort of discount you get on cancelled order 100+ metre boats?

It's probably public knowledge if you do a bit of digging, but I can't say who is the owner Nausicaa or the one that we're on. When I was over a few weeks ago Nausicaa was about to be handed over. One of the engineers was telling me that it operate silently for three weeks - hybrid drivetrain with fuel cells.

Oh this is the Japanese guy who was publicly looking for a girlfriend to take into space. That’s literally all I know about him because of the ‘billionaire in search of lover’ headlines at the time

You could be correct.

Mark Newson has a style - the curves and rounded corners and details on that yacht and the Luce are quite similar to his Ford 021C concept which is from 1999: https://marc-newson.com/ford-021c-concept-car/

[Rich B]

the yacht is as ungainly as the Luce! The little ford is cool though!

[Jobbo]

Yeah, it is quite a nice design from the end of the last century. Scaling it up and adding complication doesn't make a good yacht or Ferrari EV now though

[Simon]

The little Ford looks like something from the Jetsons.
