Everything will move at the right price
But they will sell em all (meaning what they project to produce) at their asking price!

To another point of comparing it to GT3 or Panamera, they're absolutely NOT competing with either (coupe, going after a different market)... and to me it does look BETTER than Panamera, while uglier than Aston Rapide...

Looks pretty good to me! I specially like the very clean centre console... not like Panamera with ONE ZILLION BUTTONS and unfortunately the way 991 is going to be

Yup. BMW M coupe copy. Was not a very successful design for BMW although it has a cut following.

That's going to take a lot of getting used to, but who am I to criticize Ferrari? Agree that they'll sell every one they produce, and at the price point they targeted. Did Chris Bangle end up at Ferrari and I missed the headline?

Not a Lambo minivan, but a 4-door sports sedan!

But this one looks absolutely STUNNING (Italian lady not included as standard option )!

Looks almost like a dodge challenger or the new Camaro from the back!

That profile view is hideous!!! It looks like it will tip over back wards on the slightest incline. Many people have criticized the the *** end design of the Panamera. Wait until they see this!

Well Alex,

Doesn't matter 2 or 4 doors, but this FF is definitely a direct competitor of Panamera Turbo. It is supposed to complement one's sport car for all weather use and as people mover.

My example of GT3 + Panamera is about money comparison. For the same price, I will definitely take GT3 + Panamera instead of one FF.

Do not plan to argue about looks with you as this topic is totally subjective. This FF is butt ugly and has a mean smiling face. If there is no Ferrari badge on it, nobody will buy it.

BTW the Lambo sedan looks really good in comparison.

We can totally agree on that then!

That'd be my sedan, IF I could EVER afford it!
