SF90 Stradale
Re: SF90 Stradale
A Z06 rear ended a GT40 that rear ended a F8....
Re: SF90 Stradale
Ooh I like that.
A lot. A properly new design language compared to the last few years, and a decent interior to boot. Just a shame there's still too many buttons on the steering wheel.
Other than that, like!

another daft bhp car, where does it all end?
Re: SF90 Stradale
It actually seems like good value for money! The comparison with the new Vanquish will be interesting.
Re: SF90 Stradale
Looks great.
Made me think of one of those one off specials they did, maybe based on the Enzo?

I’m not a fan of the looks, the headlights look like they come off a kit car and the rear is weird and high, but the performance sounds absolutely mental.

The front looks like someone put a whale tail in front of the lights. Otherwise, stunner.
Surely we can keep escalating power but only on paper - it’s going to be practically restrained by electronics and other tricks in order to stop the car simply being a device to apply a thin layer of rubber to tarmaced surfaces.

Re: SF90 Stradale
I had a good look around it at H.R. Owen Mayfair this afternoon.
In person the dimensions feel much more LaFerrari that 458/88, and definatly not Evora like.
There's a few funny peculiar details on it. For example the rear prancing horse is elevated slightly so that the head is in the gap between the body and the spoiler, it adds extra fussiness to the rear and makes it look very tempting to try to pull the prancing horse off the car! A smaller logo on the main body would look much better I think. Something else that I hadn't noticed before was that there's a sharkfin on the roof which is rather quite prominent when looked at in side profile... I don't think this has been on any previous Ferraris or wonder what the thinking behind it for this one is. Personally I think the front would look better without the glass section between the headlights and the vent underneath them, making the headlights a thin horizontal strip and giving it a cleaner look. Another disappointment is that the rear view mirrors look very ordinary and rather bulky.
On the positives, the bonnet curves are gorgeous and I'm glad they've put metal mesh above the rear diffuser when so many other manufacturers seem to use plastic (or plastic looking metal) in that area these days. The interior looks really intuitive, but black upholstry probably doesn't show it off to its best.
The Monza SP1 that was also in the showroom was stunning, but massive, and had the most beautiful seat I've ever seen in a car.

I saw the weird prancing horse placement in the vid I linked above. I had to rewind several times to get a decent perspective on it. What's odd is that it looks like the design of it has changed since the embedded video of it doing skids on a racetrack, to arriving in the showroom. Agree it looks strange.
