Why the hell is everyone reading that it'll be 4WD and assuming that it's a Ferrari off roader?

The Gallardo and Murcielago are 4WD and I haven't seen too many of them towing horse boxes...

I have never been a Ferrari man although as years go by I find myself liking them a tiny bit more but this FF - WOW! I really like it; the concept, the look, 4WD, the motor, everything!
Like the vast majority of us on here I will never be in a position to own a Ferrari but if I were then this is the model to tempt me yes
Well done Ferrari for finally coming up with a car that I would buy thumbup

I'm trying to place the music used on the intro on the FF site but can't put my finger on it. Anyone know? I have a feeling it might be 'ERA'..


ETA: Got it: 'Heart of Courage' by Two Steps From Hell. Lovely piece of music, I actually prefer it with the wail of the V12 over it..! hehe

It seems to be a love it/hate it design judging by the comments on here.

I love it.

Much more cohesive design than the 458 which I find fussy and lacking in elegance
eek Oh come on, you're joking right? The 458 is fab cloud9
Modern, angular, interesting to look at but certainly not elegant

yes Hence 2CV, 4CV


oh - and just in case no-one else has mentioned it (though I bet they have) the Jensen Interceptor FF was so called because it used "Ferguson Formula" four-wheel drive (also used in the Ferguson P99 F1 car http://www.ferguson-museum.co.uk/racing_car.htm ).

think that looks fantastic, especially compared to the 612 which was not good-looking or purposeful-looking, just a flabby bloated 599

I like it, but I did own a breadvan! It looks like a squashed breadvan to me. I would buy it, but Im just about 200k short...

I like this. Nice concept.

One question if 53% rear weight distribution is perfect for a rwd GT, why would it also be perfect for a four wheel drive GT?

Interesting car, I reckon it'd look pretty good in some other colours, some more pics would help also, will have to watch the vid.
