Ferrari Pursangue

[Ferruccio]

DBX 707 is the pick of them in my view - just a nice thing

If they’re allowed to still do the V12 I can’t believe they’re wasting units on this car which would be absolutely fine with the V8.

With the V8 it would basically be a less practical version of the Levante Trofeo at about 3 times the price

Absolutely, but then they could sell them a bit cheaper, make more of them and concentrate on making some proper V12 sports cars.

It’s lunacy that they’re limiting the production of their most practical model. £400k for an SUV is such a lot of money. Soon as this isn’t the latest and greatest it’ll absolutely bomb in value as nobody will want to collect them.

Will it actually be limited or are they just saying that and effectively self limiting by charging so much.

I'd love one of these.

Well Ferrari are unable to build more than 2800 V12’s per year… so given that’s shared across Icona, Purosangue. 812C and upcoming 812 replacement, got to be restriction on numbers. Ferrari certainly aren’t investing in increasing V12 build facilities given where we are going….
Got to think the V6/hybrid Purosangue is just around the corner with the V12 being so restricted.

Mine arrived at the delaer yesterday - I love the looks and am really pleased with my spec. They sold out after 2 months but my understanding is that they are about to open V12 orders again at a 20% premium to base price and an 11% for options. We will see. It’s basically drives like an 812 but has 2 more seats.

I like the colour combo on that, very nice.

The second pic emphasises the front-mid-engined layout, with the short front overhang and cabin set well back from the front wheels.

Which blue is that?

[swanseaboydan]

It will be the smartest car on a tip run that’s for sure !

[Ray_MV]

That does look fantastic - what a great spec choice. Blu America with Cuoio? Painted shields really work for me on the large front wing.

That is exactly the spec - I think it looks really elegant.

Just had the car fully PPF’d and ceramic coated. I thought the painted black scuttle at the top of the bonnet looked a little like a sore thumb so had carbon wrap added which I think looks so much better (and like OEM):

That looks really good Adam

Battery drain is terrible - worse than any Ferrari I have ever known. From 100% to 50% in less than a day!

BTW the car is supplied with the new CTEK One rebranded as Ferrari (I have one independently and they are a very very good charger)

[samoht]

That battery drain sounds like something isn't shutting down correctly to me, I know modern high-end cars are battery-hungry but I find it hard to imagine Ferrari designed it knowing it would need a trickle charger to be left for more than a day.

[maura]

They did, as they are expecting them to be used daily, but would be surprised by a 50% drop in 24 hrs, that needs looking into..

[POORCARDEALER]

Friend has just sold his for £80k over list !

I can't stand these. In my opinion SUVs can only be justified if used off road, and the glitzy ones with expensive leather will never be seen up to the arches in mud. A Purosangue isn't about the handling, or the speed, or going off road - it is about showing off. Conspicuous consumption.

I am sure many disagree, but that is my view.
