That's an F12 tongue out

It's also got the Novitec "N Largo" kit on it.

Damn all these long bonnet modern Ferrari's for looking the same!

Cheers

Not the colour scheme for me, but in the right colour scheme I think it’s lovely.

I do like the F12 & 812 a lot, but in this condition you could end up mistaking it for a lairy C7 Corvette, no?

Not that I don’t think that some C7s do look fantastic.

I looked quickly and thought it was a GT86 with a lairy body kit on

That’s a cracking spot. I saw one of these at Wolfsburg (“VW City” is superb day out for petrolheads if you’re in Lower Saxony) and it’s something I’d love to have a go in. It’s great that the major manufacturers sometimes pop up and bring these interesting concepts off the drawing board to the street and general public.

Sunday afternoon in early Spring and everyone is out for a drive in Tokyo...







Continuing the above discussion, I do think Ferrari is losing sales to Lamborghini with its front-mid engine design:


At least judging by the number of Aventadors I see...

Definitely not a supercar, but intriguing nonetheless. What did I spot walking to Euston at lunchtime the other day?

I'd imagine "Euston Bookshop" is where you'd go to perhaps buy a second hand Enid Blyton or Beatrix Potter for the kids, after which you may pop into "Sophisticats" to pamper your pet tabby?

Looks like an X5 to me.
My gut was that it felt smaller than an X5 in person - my immediate reaction was X3. Either way, WTF was it doing in Central London?

Some lovely stuff there as ever.
E30 M3 or NSX for me.
Love those Bentleys posted by Tigerkoi too.

Love the Voxy updates as usual too. Always rub the hands in anticipation to see what he’s bringing us this time smile

That’s Vice Row :/

Looks X7-size. General shape seems to fit the bill and the exhausts and rooftop shark fin aerial looks similar to the X7 pics I’ve seen.

I’ve alsways liked the X5 and upgraded along the way from the original. But the new X7 will be a monster. A GL-class sized monster.

For scale, which I know isn't easy to get from a photo, it was definitely smaller than the GL or original Q7. I really don't think it's that.

Of course, I can’t dispute what you may have seen.
Have a look at this video:

There’s next go nothing in it.

Looking at that video, it probably is the X5. There are many details that seem to be the same.

What I found surprising is that the forthcoming X7 won’t beast the new X5 in dimensions, but overall the X5 has just grown enormously through the generations and it’s very much superscaled from the originals.

I like a fast SUV, but the newest iterations I think are way too much to really enjoy.

Let’s see what this camo car comes up as in the next few months! smile
