Stunning wow, rear is damn near perfect.
Front leaves some question marks but I think it will be fine irl.
Insane numbers!

The only thing that truly bothers me is are the LED DTRL. They look like batteey powered DTRL that you could buy from aliexpress and fit on to a lorry.

lol if you expected anything else. The F8 ius a f'ing modded 458.

Anyways, this new 296 is just GLORIOUS. What a beauty. Ferrari is finally back on the elegance train with this and the Roma. Hopefully more elegant designs to follow.

I understand now that this is in reality the succesor of the F8 and then it is of course logical that it is more expensive. I thought first that this was a new model line below F8 because of the confusive and bullshit press release from Ferrari…

Yeah, agree about the elegance. This and Roma. They are going to the right direction again. First time from the 90s.

Can this entire drivetrain fit inside a front engined SUV/Crossover?

Not with the same gearbox and arrangement.

Putting this to the front as is would make it basically a really bad Audi - who use this longitudinal arrangement of engine->diff->gearbox - but with the engine hanging even more over the front. Also the gearbox is obviously too thick to fit into a transmission tunnel and it lacks the right kind of differential to also transfer the torque to the rear wheels.

But, could this engine fit with a different gearbox? I don't see why not.

Nice thing about such cars is that they show that electric cars can still be exciting ....when they’re equipped with an combustion engine. Not all is lost yet.

In fact it could easily fit with the configuration of the Renault 16 or the Citroen 2CV with the transaxle infront of the engine.

Oh and another thing I missed mentioning... this 296 is just begging for a GTS model!

It already looks like it is as it looks almost-targa like to me, especially if it keeps the buttress for their open-top variant.

Had a go at the configurator, kinda sexy in this spec.

I want to like the design, let alone love it, but....

I want a Ferrari that gives me a tingly feeling. I just haven't gotten that with this or many recent Ferrari debuts. The Maser MC20 looks more interesting to me than this.

You're just being obstinate. You need more berating from @Gianclaudio ...

The more I see, the more I like. I haven't been this smitten with a new Ferrari design in quite some time. I dig how the the design lends itself so readily toward personalisation - which Ferrari's media release pics clearly demonstrated - allowing for a conservative scheme through to a vibrant livery and everything in between. Can't do nearly as much, say, with a 911 Turbo or even Artura for that matter.

I'm just a fool for understated elegance. Imagining the 296 GTB in a dark, glossy metallic green, blue, grey or brown is so enticing.

Odd...I don't really care for red Ferrari road cars-and never really have.
