That looks fucking idiotic. Not in a good way.
I'm sure they'll sell them all to people who'll never drive them, though.
I think I'm a bit bored of modern Ferrari now.

I'm sure they'll be devastated by my response, but that is just awful.

It’s not doing much for me either.
Ah - it’s 1050PS. I’d already decided my next car needed a minimum of 1063PS.

V8?! Why does the wank SUV get a V12 whilst everything else gets a lesser engine... Looks like an existing model which has been through Mansory. Used to love Ferrari but they don't even raise my pulse now.
Just a timely reminder that there are monsters still EV swapping V12 Testes

Looks like a mashup of existing Ferraris. The 80s Testarossa was far more dramatic.

Hypercars are not for CGs any more - they’re for investorz. Stats for top trumps bragging rights. The fact they end up being proper driving tools is testament to the pride and focus of the engineers involved.

I like it. The retro futurism thing that Ferrari design has just now is my cup of tea.
Also a hopeless Ferrari apologist though

It would look right at home in GTA.

The Testarossa was my ultimate dream car as a teenager so when I saw the post title I was instantly excited. I think I'm disappointed though, especially as you can see cues from their 80s cars in little bits, but I think it just looks like another modern Ferrari unfortunately.

It looks awful, and as mentioned above won't be used as intended.
Peak Ferrari for me is F50 and Enzo.

Looks awful, not 12 cylinders, rubbish.

Is it basically a rebodied SF90? So keeping the same V8 and hybrid tech from that car (but assume "improved").
I don't like the styling either. The black bar on the bonnet has ruined the look on this and the dodici cilindri. But as others have said, doesn't mean much as I'll not own one, or probably see one in person.

Now I've had another look at the Daytona SP3 to compare, it's basically an uglier version of that with a 12cilindri front light treatment. I'll take the SP3 please.

Looks the worst of the current Ferraris so it's up against some pretty stiff competition. No doubt Schmee has one on order...

I like it.. looks like a modern interpretation of the 288 GTO. Not sure why it has two seats on each side though - Italian tax dodge as it’s a four seater?

I don't mind it, would probably look better in a different colour. Maybe white with the black sideblades and black moustache.
But they're all kinda merging into one now without a clear identity. If one went by I wouldn't know which model it was.

Ironically both maligned for not being pretty enough when they were new.
I remember a reviewer describing the F50 as looking like a melting soap dish
