It's barely believable that Ferrari would unveil a drop-top version of the controversial FF so close to the fixed head version's debut, but the company has done just that. So, welcome the Ferrari FFS.

The S stands for Spyder, of course, making this Ferrari's first four-seat, four-wheel drive drop-top.

Ferrari says the FFS uses an innovative type of soft top, which it's calling the Lightweight Manual Aerodynamic Overlay - or LMAO for short.

The LMAO roof breaks with luxury convertible convention by, as the name suggests, being manually operated. It's thought that a complicated electric system would add too much weight and require more boot space than is acceptable.

Engine details are unconfirmed, but we can safely assume the FFS uses the same 6.3-litre V12 as the hard top, developing a whopping 651bhp. It drives through a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox to all four wheels.

Ferrari hasn't confirmed production, but a text we received from a Ferrari insider suggests the FFS will see showrooms soon. It read: 'Yo m8, aftr the FF in Gnva our Facebk wall got ldz of psts saying 'do a new convertible, FFS' - so ur lukin at it nw m8 LOL l8rz :-) x.'

As of April 1, we have an exclusive video of the new Ferrari FFS in action. Click here to see it.
