Either theres no demand for Kidneys in Kenya, or the market is over-saturated.


Other than that, this looks epic! Vast improvement on the FF.

I love my FF but this is something else, absolutely fabulous.

They've done a great job, well done Ferrari.

Looking forward to seeing it in the flesh next week.

Neither were a shooting brake.....

Alternatively, they can call it whatever the bloody hell they want.

I`m usually not a fan of modern Ferraris, the 355 was the last decent looking one to my eyes but this does indeed look very nice.

[loudlashadjuster]

As much a success as the tweaks to the California. Wasn't the biggest fan of the FF as released but this seems much nicer.

Well done, Ferrari

[Ares]

Beautiful.

The FF was always my ultimate family man objective...this just ups the ante further.

[epom]

OOOOOOHHH now that is nice, even in re-sale grey ;-) Would love one.

[unsprung]

The FF was lovely. And this upgrade is even better. I shall admire it from afar, like an exhorbitantly-priced painting available only to the one percent.

ps: just for fun, I add the following Yank twist on this theme; not AWD and not a four-seater, but there's something about it...

After much Internet-fueled excitement, I have the impression that Callaway decided not to build it.

[Quickmoose]

silly buggers...

[TheRocket]

I think I want it just because of the name if nothing else...

[dlockhart]

This is probably the best car Ferrari have produced since the 458. A few tweaks to the FF have made it very desirable.

[EJH]

I’m going to be contrarian; I don’t like it.

Looks like Ferrari have followed the path they cut with the 456M and:

1 Made the car better
2 Made the interior better and
3 Made the exterior uglier

The back is unforgivable; in the shadows of the press photos it looks like the illegitimate love-child of a Fisker Karma and something Mansory would make for those heavy on cash and bereft of taste.

The California’s facelift was very good; this one isn’t.

[Quickmoose]

I see what you're saying, but then again if you're going to have a stylistic influence Fisker is one of the best in the modern age.

[DanielSan]

In what appears to be a Ferrari first, the best 2 looking cars they currently have in production are both front engined V12's. I'd take this as a daily and an F12 as a weekend toy... Now if I can just pick the right numbers...

Sorry ... but unfortunately you have chosen two of the ugliest Ferraris ever produced to illustrate your point.

[Quickmoose]

Have you not missed his point?

[McAndy]

Nice looking; silly name. Why cheaply plunder an evocative back catalogue this way?

[Amirhussain]

Oh wow

It is indeed a strange world for Ferrari. Traditionally 4 seaters have taken a huge bashing on the residuals , but you could have almost doubled your money on a low mileage 456 over the last two years , and the 612 has been strangely resilient. Even Ferrari dealers had predicted the FF to be sub 120k by early 2016 , you will see on piston heads ads that there is nothing below 150 available. Scarcity and prestige sell in this market. The FF was a cool piece of kit , if anyone had the pleasure to drive one .... Check out Chris Harris review , he bought one ..albeit on the exceedingly competitive Ferrari finance system.

What other manufacture backs its cars with a 55% 3 year residual on finance irrespective of age .... Reality is a 120 k Ferrari costs less per month than a 90k 911 . And keeps its price , other than the limited run 911 that cannot be said any longer for Porsche

For a family guy who needs a supercar the FF is great news and the new version will be better , other than the new Bentley SUV is there a better vehicle for a family guy . 5 years warranty , 7 year service pack and the badge that frankly is the best.

Yep a rangey is a great way to transport your family , questionable build quality and awful reliability. If you haven't driven an FF take one out .... Enjoy , smile , the new version will only be better than the last.

That is a genuinely nice looking car. I think (like a lot of cars) it's colour sensitive and in that grey it looks the business.

Also - 690hp?? Jesus Christ!! That amount of power still makes me get wide-eyed. I know it's almost average these days, but have a word - a car that can take my whole family at speeds approaching light...what's not to love??

Average? What current standard production car (that you can actually buy without being Jay Leno or JK) has more? I can only think of the Dodge hellcat.

Stunning car though I agree.
