there used to be a time where every Ferrari was a work of art. Those days a numbered for sure. I remember seeing the 355... the 430. The 458... each was an improvement. https://www.ferrari.com/en-US/auto/296-gtb/share/cover-video/282b4108-28bc-41d7-aa0b-5d50bb0732af
Call me nuts, but I think the 296 looks like a freakin' blast to drive. I love the 'small', I love the idea of combining hybrid+turbo, I love the idea of gobs of HP. Maybe I'm a sucker for good marketing, but it looks hot A.F. I doubt the modificata version would be my cup of tea, but the berlinetta or an upcoming spider? heck yeah.
The only part I love is its rear. Finally Ferrari has an elegant rear end again. Everything else looks mediocre. Profile, front. Meh.
That rear! The front 3/4 view doesn't treat it well, I agree they could have done a little, only a little, better with the front, but the rear is OUTSTANDING! Sent from my SM-G781U1 using Tapatalk
Like! Biggest news is that it isn’t replacing another model so the F8 stays for now? Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat
Now that it has been confirmed that the 296 GTB is not replacing the F8, I wonder in which direction Ferrari is going with the successor of the F8/488/458.
A nice tribute to the 250 LM. The design elements and DNA is very strong with this one. Congratulations to Ferrari. I think they nailed it. It looks fantastic. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
I like the looks...can't wait to see it in person and that really cements the design and looks to me. I like that it is suppose to be smaller and lighter but for tall guys like me I wonder if the Ferrari is like older ones that I could never fit into. Hummm
I think it is drop dead gorgeous. Bravissimo! If I were looking for a new mid-engined Ferrari I would be very tempted to put down a deposit. (But I’m not...sticking with my 458 Spider and my Speciale.)
Interestingly Ferrari is only claiming slight performance improvements versus the F8. same 0-62 Half a second quicker to 124. I would be figured it would be more dramatic.
