Ferrari F80
Re: Ferrari F80
The Ferrari Generic Hypercar. With V6 engine. Hmmm.
Re: Ferrari F80
I quite like the look of it to be honest. I think it looks a bit better than the new McLaren. Single seater (or whatever 1+ cab means) seems like an odd choice. I wonder how the 900HP V6 will sound..?

Except it's not
Still, they'll all sell instantly. It's not like anybody really cares.

Re: Ferrari F80
I think it's a bit odd to graft the Daytona-style nose/headlight treatment of the 12 Cylinder onto it - didn't previous special anniversary Ferraris set the styling trend for the rest of the range rather than the other way round?
Re: Ferrari F80
Yep, the want is nil.
8750rpm - it's not even some bat shit crazy high revving screamer.

How about not having a sig at all?

Re: Ferrari F80
I think it looks okay, performance will be sufficient, but there doesn’t seem to be anything next level about it..

Re: Ferrari F80
I couldn't give a toss about the F80, but that web page is absolute fucking dogshit.
Why yes, I'm going to not let you scroll till about 1/5th of the page has 'moved' so I can render a video and show a low quality image of the car rotating!
That top down view? You're damned right I'm gonna slow your scoll speed down so it feels like somethings gone wrong, you scroll more, and the rest of the page shoots past.
I'm a front end web developer for Ferrari and I definitely wasn't kicked in the head by a horse, prancing or otherwise, as a child!

Re: Ferrari F80
Yep, awful web page. I just wanna see what the car actually looks like. Lost interest very quickly when the website seemed to do bugger all.
Oui, je suis un motard.
Re: Ferrari F80
Meh.
I hate it when manufacturers quote dry weights. They’d be as well quoting the weight without brakes and wheels. Just fuck off.

Re: Ferrari F80
Three and a half mill and they’re making 799 of them, all sold already
They don’t care what anyone thinks about it.

That hit every branch falling out of the ugly tree.
Re: Ferrari F80
It's fucking gopping isn't it?
Re: Ferrari F80
The amusing thing about them selling them all is you’d need an invite to consider buying it in the first place. And as for the 1+ seating, the investment pieces won’t matter as no one will sit in it or if they do it’s not moving anywhere, and the ones that do get driven will just be rich kids taking their poorer mates around the ring

Re: Ferrari F80
Kinda what I meant. Most of the buyers don't care what it looks like or what it does or how many seats it has. It's a collectible Ferrari to go in their collection. It may as well be a Pokemon card. Half the buyers probably wouldn't even notice if there was no engine in it.
£3.5m x 799 = £2.8bn
Depressing. I'm sure that money could be spent more usefully.
Re: Ferrari F80
Thing is it still does make a difference as this is their Halo car. If people thing it is a C+ effort that doesn’t do wonders for the brand. Obviously they’re not going to feel the same impact as other carmakers because of the cache that Ferrari has but nonetheless…Sundayjumper wrote: ↑Fri Oct 18, 2024 7:53 amKinda what I meant.

Anyway - as I said I think the halcyon days are over and we best get on with renaming this website 3NAT)O and revelling in the products of 2020 back. Funny that the pandemic may be a watershed in unexpected ways.
ETA - just dawned on me that Ferrari have made a Honda NSX Mkiii
Re: Ferrari F80
What it looks or drives like doesn’t matter to the folk who’ll buy it, it’s just The New Thing.
It’s probably fine that companies are making billions a year from the same tiny group of people though. No signs of danger there.
