    I know I would, Jack.

    I’m baffled by this, as in terms of strategy, it just doesn’t seem coherent, because of the reason you’ve identified.

    Kind regards,

    Nuno.

    There really is no need for an entry level Fcar...probably because there is no 'need' for any Fcar. SUV=need. Dino=WANT.

    Nobody's going to be restoring any SUV in 40 yrs. Somebody please break it to the guys behind the gate.

    Truth be told, Ferrari started the entry level thing back in 2008 with the introduction of the California, a V8 GT below what would be the full blown V8 flagship, the 458.

    Another entry level car, below the current entry level car (California/Portofino), V6 or whatever, would be welcomed by this humble owner and enthusiast. Afterall, it could be tons of fun, like the Alfa Romeo 4C, one of my all time favorite small sportscar. Better than an SUV that’s for sure.

    Kind regards,

    Nuno.

    Why have an "entry level" Ferrari when every other one you build sells for above $250k? Makes no sense to build an entry level Ferrari. Customers would only say "why do I need to buy that one for $250k+ when I can buy this one for $120k and tell all my friends that I "have a Ferrari". SUV makes sense though. You NEED to take the kids to soccer and be better than all the other soccer moms in their minivans and that guy "Ned" down the way in his Lambo SUV.

    SUV = $$$ margin and volume

    Two seater or 2+2 sports car in entry level below Portofino = crowded and declining market, makes no sense for a listed company, even if many of us would have loved it
