I don't like it at all. The curves, the silhouette, does not work at all, it does not "speak" to me as a Ferrari.

Again, a heritage brand ruined by an obnoxious, pesky iPad like display that has no business being in a Ferrari.

The front profile is hideous too.

I thought the interior looked pretty nice - lots of retro physical switches, etc. The exterior doesn't look like a normal Ferrari but maybe that's on purpose. A "normal" Ferrari buyer would probably buy a normal Ferrari. Maybe this is more for someone who would have bought a Model S or X in the past but has a lot more money to shell out.

On top of this, it's 5x more expensive than a Xiaomi SU7 Ultra... which may be the better car regardless of price.

It's 140% better than the previous Ferrari Enzo

And 20% thinner

With a brand new Magnesium case

It's the fastest Ferrari we've ever built.

Yeah, if this was coming from say Honda at a sub $100k price I'd think something like "eh, not for me but it's neat Honda is willing to do something kinda fun and odd."

But starting at $600k for that?

It's clear they'd like to have a Lamborghini Urus like sales success that's not exactly a traditional style Ferrari but this thing seems like a total miss.

But Ferrari being who they are they'll do the same scummy crap of making dealers and customers buy the turd if they wanna get an allocation for the next highly collectable supercar.

Looks like a Polestar and Corvette had a child.

The doors are dumb as hell. So I guess the front and back people have to take turns, because only one can squeeze through that gap?

Presumably the range is only a few KM, since Ive said, "You don't want a bigger battery."

And after ruining Apple's computers for years with his POS keyboard and embarrassing emoji bar, he's all about "tactile controls" now? Or was that the will of someone who ISN'T just a pompous hack?

Oh wait: Someone pointed out that there are KNOBS on the steering wheel. So there are wheels on a wheel. That has Ive all over it.

I love the EV idea, but the exterior design is terrible
