hahaha WTF comes to mind. Honestly, who will take this on gravel backroads or on a desert safari....
I will sell because it's practical.. I wish they would be put the entry california engine in it as well... maybe later.
indeed shifting is ancient technology - so is a fuel burning engine.. I happen to like both :)

A great alternative to the more ''common'' Panamera.
It has great presence, looks different, looks sporty and seems 'practical'. It will have terrific road presence and I can imagine it to be the most fun sedan to drive.
I really like it a lot !!!
But I also liked the Lambo LM , so....
997.2 C2S, PDK, -20mm

I love this car a little more each time I see it. specially in silver and shades of gray.
True 2 special grey's at the launch including Grigi Ferro, but my choice was the new Blu America. Terrific event with dinner in the V12 assembly area. Production 458 Challenge, SA Aperta and of course GTO's everywhere.

Gnil:My father still keeps his LM till now
That car must be quite an experience. Tell us more about it...
It's like nothing else. It feels like you are in a tank. It's not civil at all but i don't mind. We get offers left and right to buy but my father refuses. I'll try to take some pics.

I guess, coloured in blue, many people will ask you about its brand.
Blue may not be the typical Ferrari color for the more sporty models, but is quite a classic color for the more refined and less flashy 2+2 models. The 456 GT was launched in Blue Swaters in 1992 and the first official release pics of the 612 Scaglietti showed a blue car also.
You are certainly right, Ziggy, yet I was rather aiming at the fact that the FF already sports a rather unique layout for that brand. I´d say any shade of red would certainly help bypassers to determine the car´s brand.
Blue is an elegant and prominent yet classic colour for those GT Ferraris. When did Tour de France blue debut?

Now I'm completely convinced. beautiful.
I'f reliability is as high as Ferrari says it is, this could be a very useful, fun, and practical daily driver (also understated in most colors) if maintenance costs are something you are willing to take on.
Just got back from a ski resort yesterday.
We were stuck in the mountain cottage for a day because of snow that exceeded 30cm overnight.
As much as I would enjoy the idea of speeding through snow in a sports vehicle just like the video, this does not work in real-life situations. The ride height of FF simply cannot clear the fresh snow of over 30cm.
Nice video though.

I had the same thought.... the go-anywhere image they promote for the FF would enhanced if they provided an adjustable ride height.... a la Audi Offroad of some years ago. But the fact that they didn't is sure proof that Ferrari are using the FF to soften the public to a future Ferrari SUV .

No, that will be a Maserati! Ferrari is just trying to appeal to people taking their AWD Bentleys and Panameras to ski resorts...
