Weird. Daytona front, who knows what inspired back and a silly name. New Ferraris don't really appeal much to me any more.

Is it just a rebodied 812? I'm not instantly loving the design.
How about not having a sig at all?

Front is ok, back is balls, wheels are borderline balls, name is total balls.

Overall - balls.

Ferrari 12Testicoli doesn’t have the same ring to it. Mind you Cilindri doesn’t either. They must have got overconfident with the “Italian sounds really cool in foreign languages” naming convention. It doesn’t work when the Italian word is similar to the English word.

Looks like it's receding, to match its owners?

Joking aside I think it looks good.

I'm not convinced. Looks odd, although I do like the nod to the Daytona at the front.

Hmmm. Not sure on the styling, but later this year Ferrari fans are expecting the release of the Eeesamanueligearboxio, and then in 2025 the eagerly awaited Discobreakiesateachacornero.

I love it!

12 cylinder cars suit more grown up colours though - red would not be my choice.

€400k though - ouchie.

It does look a million times better in silver than red, but that rear end is just bizarre.

I thought it looked pretty meh at first, flicked through to the silver one and started to like it. The rear end is less odd to me than the hairline but the whole thing is more interesting than an 812/Superfast.

I'd like to see one in black, I don't think the 2 tone is helping it.

I really like the front-end and the Daytona middle section, but the back just looks a mess. Maybe its the two-tone colour exaggerating it in all the wrong places?

The one thing that I really don't like about the design is the exhaust pipes. I hate these little square things that look they're from a mid range Mercedes but with a muzzle around them. If it had proper round pipes like the 812 has, and if they were mounted higher up in that cutaway bit of bodywork either side of the number plate, and if it had a more impressive looking rear diffuser then I think it could look very good.

Other than that I think it looks beautiful, moreso in the walk around videos that are coming out than from the official pictures.

The open top version looks miles better, but the black bit still looks weird from the side

Correct. Get that black bit in body colour and that is a lovely looking thing.

The more I look at it, the more I like it. I bet the rear looks good in the <material>
