I came across this site, are these numbers correct? 1.5million and 250mph? http://www.motorsm.com/Collection/gallery/956.htm

No, from what I've read in official Ferrari media is a more reasonable :roll: $500,000 US and only a top speed of 200MPH. The advancements over the old F50 would be quicker acceleration, exotic materials and F1-derived shifting technology (not the simple one found on the 360).

hmm "reasonable" pocketchange you mean :wink:

the bigger question is when do we get to see the car??

 

[jamesogara]

i read it will be 650hp from a 6-liter engine, good for "only" (considering the power on tap) about 200-205mph, but with 0-60 times down around 3.0 secs and 0-100 around 6.0 secs. also heard state of the art ceramic brakes and a new F1 system

 

[Dj Dirk]

does somebody have any new spy pics??

 

[Andrew]

spy pics

Here are a few pics of it. Very awesome looking.

 

[Dj Dirk]

they really have to drive the car more often so that we can get some more and hopefully better pics

 

[jamesogara]

i'm pretty sure the car is being revealed on the ferrari owners site (http://owners.ferrari.com) on the 16th. hopefully members of the site can post some pictures and info then. otherwise we have to wait for the paris motor show in the fall. road and track this month has a blurb on it

 

[Dj Dirk]

Is it now defenitly on the Paris motor show
because at first there was a possibility that it would be at the Ferrari days Nurburgring. I thinking of goingthis year.
If it is in Paris that's even bettet, that's closer and for the F60 i will drive over there

paris motorshow

I agree, a 4 hour drive to Paris is well worth it to see the unveiling of the F60. As always I'm sure you'll take lots of kickass pictures

 

[jamesogara]

it was unveiled on the owners site today - actually called the FX. here it is:

How on earth did you know that its about a 3-4 hour drive to Paris for me?????????????

 

[Dj Dirk]

James

that's an official pic of the F60????????????

WOW MAN that car looks awesome

 

[jamesogara]

yup dirk thats the official picture (not computer generated) that was posted on the ferrari owners site by the company yesterday. also check out these sketches that were also on the site. you have to provide proof that you own a ferrari (VIN #, etc) to become a member, so the site usually gets all the exclusive stuff. now if only i had a ferrari....

 

[jamesogara]

oh and this one as well - i like the look with the spoiler on back, gives some better lines i think ~ James

 

['75 308 GT4 (Peter)]

So James, if you don't own a Ferrari, how did you become a member of the Ferrari Owner's Site? :-?

 

[Andrew]

i'm wondering the same

Dirk,
Lucky guess ? Actually I think you told me once.

james,
I'm like Peter, how did you get these? Someone already leak them like you have?

 

[Dj Dirk]

I'm wondering about that to??
how do you know that has a ferrari James??


Andrew
I told you that?? oeps, it could be i don't remember.
anyway
If the FX is presented in Paris then i'm going, it's that simple

 

[jamesogara]

yeah guys they were leaked to me by a friend who's uncle owns a 328 (and lets my friend log on as him). we are both fanatics so we had been keeping an eye on the site all day

geez guys if i knew i was going to get the 4th degree i wouldn't have bothered... :wink:

 

[Andrew]

lol

I think we were all just very curious. No harm intended
