Seriously, aside from the carbon fiber, it looks like something out of a grand am!
Even our grand prix has a digital display!
I guess it may be saving some weight but comeon!

I would not buy THAT Ferrari if I had the money, it is an ATX. That is just. I would get that F1-transmission with the paddle shifters.  And it only has 660 HP for 12-cylinders? That is a little low in my opinon, I guess the weight and the fact that it is a Ferrari makes it all good!  -KJ

That is the F1 Transmission. And cylinder count means nothing, you need to look at displacement. It may have four more cylinders than a Z06, but its 1L less displacement and pumps out over 150 more HP. Still think that's a little low?

Very few of life's problems can not be solved with the reasonable application of more horsepower!

I'm so sick of kids with Contours bashing supercars. "Not good enough for me!", they say. Seriously - it's ludicrously fast, looks like sex on wheels, and you don't even seem to know anything about it. And you say 660hp isn't enough for you? What the hell are you smoking? Do you have any idea how hard it is to drive a car like that? I bet you'd put a 400hp car into the wall ass-first if you tried to drive it. People are so desensitized these days.

I know the HP is more than the normal hp range in 8 cylinders, but I would think that they would put more power into it cause you're spending a pretty penny to own one.
Besides if you compare displacement to cylinders use the Subaru WRX STI as an example. 300 hp on a 2.5 liter, sure it is turboed but put two of these engines together and looking at a 600 hp 5L 8-cylinder engine. Add another STI 4 banger and your looking at 900 hp at 7.5L 12-cylinder.
I'm just saying that they could more time to the engine. But hey, I would get a Ferrari if I had the money.
