Three million quid and the first thread on PH doesn't even make it to Supercar section but is tucked away in V6..........

It seems to look more like a track only car than a roadcar, even more so than the McLaren Senna, and yet not many of these F80's will likely see an open road let alone a track.

The F50 is still my favourite.

Strong rumours of V6 were true. Guard those V12’s, they were Ferrari.

interesting how a matter of weeks after introducing a car celebrating, by its very name, 12 cylinders, they introduce a mere 6 cylinder job as somehow the ultimate !

V6 and 3.0l engine is terrible but it's 1200bhp and 0-62 in 2.15 secs is quite impressive.

Not a fan of the style, looks very lego!

Not keen either but i've said this before about many new models and they have grown on me eventually ,

Probably good news for any La Ferrari owners due to not only the questionable looks of the F80 but

also having a V6 now fitted to the hallow Ferrari may be a big mistake that could send prices soaring on the La Ferrari .

As good as the entry level Ferrari is the 296 is still regarded by many to have 2 cylinders short at a fraction of the price of the F80,

Probably wrong as the millionaires will still be keen to buy the latest ,fastest and most expensive Ferrari even if only for bragging rights.

it is a bit sad that the 499 looks so much better imo given that was built with only the goal of being fast - put a wider canopy on one of those and scale down the rear wing setup and it would look so much better than the F80 imo - much more organic looking shape to my eyes

I’d be laughing my arse off if I was a SP3 owner, the F80 is a complete mess.
I thought the W1 didn’t move the game on, this feels like regression from Ferrari.

35 litres of trunk capacity!

That'll be great for touring (not that most will ever be used anyway).

I’m conflicted by this car. It’s a tech showcase alright. Looks are challenging but not a total disaster. But it sounds pathetic. Like totally boring hairdryer. Under me… What have they done?! Ditching the V12 is clearly a mistake.

£3m+ and 799 of them means it’s never going to be rare so I just can’t see the values moving north for a long time, if ever.

I just think this is a massive fail. Not beautiful no great sound and what are we left with - downforce?
