Ferrari 849 Testarossa and 849 Testarossa Spider

[hovabongZA]

Ferraris are better cars in 2025, just not well designed. They have not made a beautiful ferrari since the 458.

The Pininfarina cars were much nicer.

On a side note, it seems that even Ferrari is switching back to Pirelli. The 992.2 Turbo S is equipped with these P Zero R as well.

Face only a mother could love. If anyone thinks that looks good they need to get their eyes checked, cause what the hell is even that.

Calling this car Testarossa is almost blasphemy.

This thing has literally nothing in common with the real Testarossa.

If they’d put the 12cilindri V12 into it I could somehow understand it.

296 GTS is easily the best looking car Ferrari is making right now. This thing is horrible. The front especially.

Looks absurd. Absolutely absurd. The SF90, while bloated for a Ferrari, was cohesive. This is a hodge-podge mess. And this is coming from a guy that likes the 12 Cilindri and F80. Aft of the A-pillar is out of proportion from what precedes the A-pillar. I did have to warm up to the 12 Cilindri and F80, but I think this is one of those instances where I just won't. A dog's dinner this is.

The SF90 second-hand market is extremely saturated and values have been free falling. They will make this more expensive, resulting in a compounding effect of low residuals, and driving down the SF90 market even further.

This platform sits in no man’s land in terms of sheer performance or being a driver’s car - and spec-wise this is not much of a leap forward either. Other cars in this category are better performing or more engaging to drive.

I have not seen one positive comment on the exterior design on social media yet. The one positive trait is that the interior is cohesive and the best they’ve executed in a while. Ferrari is in uncharted waters at the moment with their hit-miss lineup. Not sure why they feel the need to go retro for designs in 2025.

I would redesign it like this.
Kinda resembles the Daytona SP3 from the side but still. The car looked so flat because of the lack of character lines.

I’m still in a state of shock.

They took cues from the F80, 12Cilindri, and Daytona SP3 and mashed the shit out them onto the SF90. This is the worst looking Ferrari I can remember in my lifetime of paying attention.....since the 80's. WOW, SF90s values should improve now. First they goofed up the Roma and now the SF90. Yikes. This car looks bat shit crazy and it drags a historical, legendary name thru the mud.

You did a way better job than whatever the f Ferrari designed.

 

[Monster]

Even though I can understand the design inspiration from the 1970s prototype race cars, eg the 512 M

The forced modern retro design theme does not translate well, especially with the over use of black strips across the front and along the side of the car.

The 296 is the last classically beautiful Ferrari, and the 12 Cilindri now appears to be a one off design fluke.

 

[Ozy]

My God, …. “Is this creation, or abomination?”

 

[bmwz4coupe]

The black line fetisch orgie continues….

The F12, the Roma, the 296, the SP3?

That’s a huge improvement. Well done. It also highlights that the moustache and black blade makes the design appear disjointed.

Looks like someone let the 12 cylinder rooster in with the SF90 hens and this is the abomination they created.
