    ThyssenKrupp; it is the same than the 812.

    Thanks - that was indeed the second candidate I discovered (ThyssenKrupp Presta Florange - apparently they are also going to supply the coming German Tesla factory).

    It occurs to me that the rear exhaust boxes also have what seems to be vents in them. I hadn’t really thought about it before but since we know on the real car the rear hatch is full of venting, it looks like there could be a clue here? All the mules have these large rear exhaust boxes, right from the early ones. They look too big and awkward to be a final feature. Can we therefore conclude that they are ‘exhale’ vents, effectively doing what the vents on the rear screen will do in the real car but in a more disguised way on the mules (since everyone knows mules get snapped)? If they do serve the same function they are clearly not ‘inhale’ vents. So where does the air come in from, and what does it cool as it goes through the rear and out through the top hatch panel (rear on the mules)?

    The vents are to cool the Mr Fusion Reactor power plant and to keep the Flux Capacitor from imploding

    The real one is better looking (in my opinion) than that (excellent) render

    Agree: it's something like happened with 488 GTB and 488 Pista: same car, more or less, but the Pista is what we all expected that 488 shape were from the beginning

    Same tail lights, but an improved rear design, less "boxy".

    I don't and (very likely) you will do the same.


    the mules shown (the black and the white cars) are not the Le Mans (or what the name is) but the car with the textile cover is the real production car (with some pieces attached to the body as a trick to trap the eyes).

    Ferrari is very good at generating high downforce without external wings, so they placed a sort of carbon fiber wing in the front lid and an "advanced" rear diffuser. Some rumors say a 599 XX like feature with fans, but i don't know if that is true (maybe it has only the 599XX downforce efficiency, without fans) and what they are driven by.

    Or maybe the black boxes around the exhaust are just there to keep the folks at FerrariChat talking... Most efficient feature of the new car I presume:D

    I'm sure I don't see those boxes on the final car. Surely there will be an aerodynamic solution that those boxes reproduce, but the final result will certainly be aggressive but well integrated and organic. I expect the same operation Ferrari did on the Portofino M: they will have eliminated those two taut lines that point towards the ground from the light and the two outlets will be different. In a way I expect a tapered tail more similar to the F12. With the tailpipes closed within a well-defined volume

    The rear of the Portofino M is really nicely done. I especially like the bulge accentuating the exhaust box. Would be nice to see something similar with the VS, but apparently not the case based on Alberto comments.

    Due to some down time in my quarantine hotel, I've Google Earth'd and Street View'd every single Ferrari dealer in Japan and none of them have that blue/yellow structure outside. No luck!

    Was thinking maybe it's an Ikea in Japan that's pictured outside? Tempted to jump down the rabbit hole.
