    They may even come and present it to you in front of your house for you to buy, after the first 2 years of production ...

    F8 sounds like sht so I don't care if the LB has 3 cylinders. if it has about 700 HP and it is cool looking, i'll get a rossa corsa spider one even if they call it 706.

    Lots of buyers around the world know what the Dino is and how beautiful it was. Many will line up for one. Remember the V6 will be the base model too.I am not talking a sub brand but calling the V6 line Ferrari Dino then any additional model numbers. I don't currently own a Dino but in person these are one of the most heart stopping beautiful cars ever. I can picture flying down the highway in a reborn Ferrari Dino gts with all the feeling and emotion that the original gave me. I am sure many buyers will have that same feeling.

    The Dino V6 was supposed to be Alfredino's pet project. Back in those days, a road going Ferrari having less than 12 cylinders was something to sneeze at. Nowadays, the best Ferrari (apart from the halo car) is the V8 SF90 Stradale. A V6, in place of the the F8 isn't such a big deal. It won't be a bubbly, entry level Ferrari, it will be a serious piece of kit!

    F8 territory, since it is will be the F8's successor. Why should it be anything different than that?

    I am not sure you understand this "car business" at all. They are not selling cylinders, they are selling cars and performance. By your logic, an electric car should be free of charge, since it has no cylinders whatsoever. Brilliant, free electric cars for everyone!!! LOL!

    We are talking about a ferrari not a mazda lol.

    Enzo said it best. It goes if I remember correctly: A reporter said to Enzo no spare tire (re Ferrari F40)? He replied if you can afford an F40 you can afford to have your pilot fly you one out in your helicopter. i.e. price is not an issue for those that can afford the car.

    The LB will look more like a Mac with bits of every other Ferrari than an old curvy Dino. Count on it.

    You can continue to dream ... it does not look like the Dino concept, there are 600 kg too much and the number of cylinders is not enough to make its descendants !

    they are reusing every electronic component as much as possible because of cost cutting. so I expect the annoying touch interface on roma and sf90 on it.

    but i'm more curious about the weight of the new car.

    I’m pretty sure the last thing Ferrari design aspire to is copying Mac design language.

    From the first pics we see—and though definitely still a very early prototype; it is most likely on a production platform and no longer a 488-based mule—Ferrari look to have abandoned the glass backlight for an open engine compartment and flying buttresses. This makes a lot of sense considering the car will likely have a hot-V engine configuration.

    With a hole at the back they will likely sacrifice some top end speed but it will give the car a bit more character with some throw back to the cars off the ‘60s. In fact, the prototype has a very distinct resemblance to the P80/C one-off, and that car was said to be inspired by the Dino 206 C and 330 P3/4. You can even see hints of a “visor” windshield, like on P80/C, so definitely a change in design direction. And definitely not towards a Mac-like mashup.

    P80/C: https://magazine.ferrari.com/en/cars/2019/03/25/news/ferrari-p80-c-one-off-extreme-design-56416/

    FWIW, my Ferrari salesperson says that he already has 16 orders for the LB. It’s going to be a smash hit. I am won’t be participating. I am actively pursuing a nice Pista. Get’em while you still can...

    There is something that it reminds me the 250 LM.. But I can't see very well... For sure a different roofline from the 458/488/F8 ones

    If its design is inspired by the P80's, then we'll have a winner.
