    It indeed does have some Ferrari lines, almost as if a Ferrari and a McLaren had a baby

    Great looking car and spec - full carbon (though still over 1,400kg) and about 650hp and 700+ lb ft of torque from its V6 plus a proper DCT. Should be almost as quick as a 488.

    But the interior just doesn't look right to me. I remember Maseratis of old - the Bora, Khamsin, Merak etc. They were exotic outside and in. The MC20 interior looks like a modern American muscle car, all squares and straight lines on the dash. Not really driver focused, full of LED displays but not expensive-looking like the Taycan or SF90, just squares.

    I could probably get over it.

    I watched JWW's video of the car. It looks more interesting on video than it did in pictures. In person it would probably look even more so.

    So flat. So impersonal. So little Maserati. Where did the iconic lines go?

    SO... I guess I am getting an F8. VIN has been assigned and supposedly completion date late October.

    Does it really take about 6 weeks to build the car? What is the shipping time?

    Sheesh, I didn’t get any of the steering wheel, but he did point out the Tricolore stitching on the wheel... amazing!
    I was in awe... I was passenger in his car for a run and this car is blisteringly fast! When he gunned it, I thought we were going 80 mph but when looking at the cool passenger tach/soeedo display, we were well above triple digits. Just fast!
    For the latter half of the run, I hopped passenger seat in a buddy’s 458...of course, a very different experience in terms of feel, sound, and power delivery (will keep opinion to myself).
    The F8 looks amazing but is too fast for me. I honestly would get a ticket every time I drove the car.
    Ironically, a red 458 and black Scud Did get a ticket in our run.

    He almost had a clone. I strongly considered the same exterior. I love the interior color but being practical, I know the white leathers requires massive care and will stain easily, especially with jeans (I have a MB GLE 63s AMG white white seats). Ultimately, I went against the tricolored stripe because it makes the car look like a racing version of another (like the Pista) without the actual look of a racing car. The Tributo is an elegant car and to me, it isn't totally harmonious with the car. However, I found myself wondering what it would look like. Thank you for making this spec, it is a beautiful car. May you enjoy it in health and many miles (or not so many) or moments of happiness.
