Eargasm!

I do love me some front engine Ferrari, and that thing does sound sweet. I'm surprised that the whole thrust of the video seemed to be the exhaust. Not much on the interior and not even a peak at the beast that makes the noise. Nice ride though.

Yes, it’s a very nice spec. Overall, a wonderful cruiser with an orgasmic sound that can turn into a beast if asked upon.

I agree, best sound I've heard coming out of a car in ages. It's truly reminiscent of an F1 car, and the right amount of it, not overdone.

This video is pure win.

Holy fuck, just when I think I am over my crazy one day a 458 dream, a video like this comes along...

I think the F1 comparison is spot on. I'm not a Formula 1 expert, but I think it does have this uniquely aural sound the V12 F1 Ferraris were so famous for.

well to be fair ferrari really hasn't updated their mid-tier cars very much in the last decade. The 458, 488, F8, F12, 812 all pretty much look the same inside. same guage cluster, hvac controls, carbon seats, steering wheel buttons / mannetino switch, door handles, etc.

ferrari relies alot on the brand image and selling t-shirts, rather than beating competition on the track and moving cars. when's the last time they sent their car for a lap at the nurburgring ?

BUT they do make one of the best NA v12s on the market if not the best and pair it with a really good trans. Their cars have become pretty solid in reliability over the last 10 years too.

you are in general correct about F, even though 488 Pista is right there with the best.
