>hybrid supercar with a twin turbo v6
GEE I REALLY WONDER WHY IT ISN'T SELLING!!!!
>>
>>28209159
Engine from the 499P should count for something.
>>
>>28209159
I don't think the average person cares about that. They just care if it is fast or not.
>>
>>28209018
these companies reach out to their best buyers way before they debut anything.

also this car doesn't have a V12, doesn't have some sort of crazy aero, and looks like a lego car
>>
It doesn't even have any sound, super muffled.
>>
>>28209165
You must not know average people then.
Also, average people aren't buying a fucking Ferrari. At the very least, the type of person who buys a Ferrari will care about the sound of the engine and this thing sounds very sterilized.
>>
>>28209177
the buyer of a ferrari cares about 1. how much they can make when they can re-sell that ferrari 2. how it drives

in that order
>>
Maybe the normies finally figured out Ferrari sucks.
>>
>>28209018
who took ferrari's pie?
>>
>>28209187
No normie will ever be in the position to do these kind of things
>>
>>28209178
And I'm sure a v12 laferrari will fetch more than a v6 f80
Because even those rich average people who happened to like cars slightly cares about having big engine
>>
>>28209166
>doesn't have some sort of crazy aero
It has 1000 kg of downforce
>>
>>28209187
No, ferrari doesn't suck. Your mum does
But it's been mediocre lately
>>
>>28209164
You can buy a 499p modificata for about the same price (€5M)

>>28209018
>Look good for a ne-
>V6
NOPE
>Hybrid
Lol fuck no
>>
>>28209215
>>Look good
It doesn't
>Hybrid
I think that's not a problem since Laferrari together with P1 and 918 established hybrids as cool
>V6
That's a problem indeed
>>
>>28209164
the porsche 919 won the world endurance championship and le mans 3 times in a row but it used a turbocharged V4
who the hell wants a turbocharged V4 in their hypercar?
>>
>>28209159
i doubt it will be a called a cult classic in 30-40 years either
just put a fucking v12 turbo/sc in it and call it a day
>>
>>28209244
It will be like F50. Some will call it an exciting classic but most will call it ugly and disappointing

>Update:
>Ferrari has clarified that all 799 units of the F80 have already been allocated and that the recent reports are untrue.
>With that said, we would like to give you a background on how this story developed over the last couple of days. It all began with an Instagram post, which claimed that the F80 production was not sold out. We reached out to our contacts to confirm this. Unfortunately, it appears that we were totally misled by multiple sources.
And /o/ loses again

V6 Ferrari is fucked
You can tell they'll stuff a v12 in it why beta test a car with a half cucke size engine

how do you put a v6 in a ferrari with a straight face? that's the funniest shit i've ever heard. i'm sure it's fast as balls, but if you care about speed get a valkyrie.
>>
>>28209363
I would gladly see Valkyrie vs F80 vs W1 vs Porsche Mission X vs AMG One race
>>
>>28209223
The V4 is a novel engine design for cars, and it can sound pretty good if V4 motorcycles are anything to go by.
>>
>>28209291
would have really surprised me if that had been true to be honest.
Even the Mercedes AMG-One with it's odd styling, tiny F1 engine weird maintenance plan was already sold out before the public knew about it's existence
Granted, they made less AMG-Ones than F80s (275 vs 800), but still

>how do you put a v6 in a ferrari with a straight face?

>>28209164
you would think so huh but that's not how it works, for you see, v6s are gay.

Journalism is dead.
>>
>>28209487
Yes. V6s are gay but I6s are straight.
>>
>>28209018
The 296 kinda made every offering they have today a bit pointless. The SF90 isn't much faster and sounds worse than that 6 and it's lighter and smaller and better looking to boot. Even thought the interior is totally chimped I'm sure the 296 will actually sell.

I actually like the look of this car, controversial opinion I know, but it's just kind of lifeless. It's the same powertrain as the little GTB, nothing bespoke about it other than said looks. I get why no one wants to fork over money for an allocation when everyone with that kind of money is fighting to get a GMA car or waiting on that latest lambo to come out.
>>
>>28209165
F80 purchasers don't care about that at all. Maybe 10% of the ones sold will ever get above 1,000 miles. All these high end hyper cars at this point are just going to rich collectors.
>>
Super car prices have been dropping lately if you've been paying attention

people simply dont have money to blow and watch depreciate, especially for some warehouse queen when the economy is about to drive off a cliff over the next 4 years ( not because of trump but because the economy is broken )
>>
>>28210728
nonsense. people will always buy exotic cars. ferrari survived multiple economic collapses. people kept buying their cars even while various markets were going under, because they knew it would hold value. same with porsche.

Much like the Native Americans at Thanksgiving things went great...

...once. When Enzo passed the spirit passed with it.
>>
>>28210776
I wish I could agree with you but both Ferrari and Porsche have come very close to going out of business because of economic recessions in the past, and back when wealthy people were normal about postwar cars they were not bought as investments either, people bought them because they were good cars.

We're not quite at the point where supercar sales genuinely suffer, the ultra wealthy won't diminish in size the way they did even fifty years ago, they are a much more protected class now. Will cars like the 911 Turbo suffer in sales? Yes, but rare exotics won't be losing their market anytime soon.

The Montezemolo era of road cars is still among Ferrari's best

Yes, a lot of my favorites are from that era, but it's hard to deny how special Ferrari was as a company before that. There is a less globalized, less mass market quality to those cars. They may not even be the height of technology for their time and you may not even care about the racing, but there have been very few companies like Ferrari in the 60's and especially the 50's, before or since.

They had unique bodies designed specifically for whatever chassis the chosen design house was given, some of them were never copied or repeated onto more than one car, each car was given individual attention and at the same time, was still technically impressive and good to drive as an actual vehicle. You didn't buy a car back then for investment, you bought it for what it was objectively. Objective performance and technical prowess and the emotional aspect of cars still walked hand in hand, something that isn't really true now. Cars are all so similar and homogenized that most of their marketing is really just emotional now, the average person either wants a pure appliance or is fine with being duped by whatever a company says a car is. (The Ford Mustang was so undeniably successful for ford that it basically normalized this behavior, it's just the way it is)

Enzo didn't really like the people who could afford his cars, but he loved his company and he loved his men who worked on and designed these cars. I don't really buy that he was detached from his companies road going variants, I would be proud of these machines if I was the one who made the money flip to put them on the road, no matter which beurocrat bought it.

We wax poetic too fucking much about Ferrari as enthusiasts, and the prices these things trade for will always feel slimy, but I can understand where people are coming from when they throw around pedantic words like "emotion" and "magic." We will not be getting car companies like that again for a long time, maybe not ever.

>>28209018
-presold 80% of the production run before they even start
-struggling
-selling 80% before launch

one of these things is not like the other
>>
>>28212399
The C8 has been sold out since before it was initially released. It's almost like people have woken up and realized it's pretty stupid to pay 10x more for a horse badge.
>>

Ferrari reinvented a NISSAN Z32
>>
>>28209018
Hi, if you bothered to read the (Updated) part you would have realized that all 799 cars are allocated and the person printing the article was just wrong. Yes, the car looks ugly, but I think this design language will evolve into something good. The main shot they have everywhere is really unflattering but it has a pretty cool cyberpunk quality from other angles. Finally yeah its a V6 but everyone forgets to mention that it has three electric motors too. What kind of engines do they use in F1 again?

They can't just keep building V12s forever, you guys want the old shit, buy the old shit. I read one of the F80 build orders went as high as $6 million USD.
>>
>>28212043
Ferrari haven't been a boutique handcrafted marque since the 60s. Stuff like the Dinos, 412, and Testarossa were explicitly designed for mass production.
>>
>>28209164
that shit only counted when these race cars were not hybrids
nobody give a fuck about these modern hybrid power trains

Gay homo ones because of gay homo rulemakers. Not one I'd want in any car, let alone one costing a gorillion dollars.
