Sadly soon all combustion cars including classics will be banned from public streets in entire EU and Scandinavia: -(
In Germany the Green Peoples Party gave order to shorten fuel supply from 2025
on by reducing all conventional fuel stations to only one state operated central gas station per city or county. Now they want to slow down all the gas station pumps from 20 litre per minute to 2 litre per minute. From 2027 on in the EU certain car spare parts will be banned too. as exhaust systems, turbo chargers and even some engine and gearbox oils. California and New York will do the same from 2027 on. So no investments should be done in oil burning cars any longer. They even created a new kind of crime here, called emissions and smoke crime.

I think I know the reason for the -meh- reception to the SF90; it's chasing numbers and marketing points instead of what Ferrari traditionally stood for, which is the driving experience. The 812 only does a 7: 27 on the Nurburgring but people still love it, often claiming it's the best Ferrari you can buy today.
The problem with chasing numbers is that there's always something with a bigger number just around the corner.

I know looks are subjective but seems to lack a bit of the drama of the previous Hypercars such as Enzo and F50 but no doubting the engineering. Had to laugh at Goodwood FoS back in the summer when I guy went up to the demonstration driver sat in the SF90 and said this is the new 296GTB. Driver was very polite and said no but the guy then continued, yes but they have a new hybrid Ferrari that is the latest. -

Wow, this Ferrari is a bargain. I mean seriously, you've got all these other hyper-car manufacturers charging several million quid for their 1, 000bhp+ hybrid monsters, and then Ferrari bring out the SF90 and it's less than half a mill. Quite a bit less if you don't go crazy on the options. Still stratospheric money obviously, but significantly less stratospheric than many others.

Remember how many people were scandalized by the 1700kg weight of Honda NSX.
Now we've finally got Ferrari's answer - hybrid yes, 1700kg weight yes and whole lot more expensive to boot, and zero luggage space. I'll admit the Ferrari is bit faster - however don't neglect the whole lot higher price point!

I remember when video reviews of hypercars involved emotions, facial expressions and the perception that the reviewer wanted the viewer to at least partially feel what it was like to drive and experience rather than in this case just listen to the equivalent of Siri reading a technical datasheet PDF

Personally, I think it is a beautiful car except for the front hood area. To me, it looks like a hammerhead shark especially when the area is outlined in a different color as in this video. Unfortunately, I can't afford one, so I don't have the problem of deciding whether or not to purchase one.

This is maybe the most well executed excuse for a sports/supercar. nothing but a shell of an 355/360/F430/458. If only the market would speak and people would stop paying more and more for less and less emotion. For the price of this SF90 I could put a down payment on an F50.

I just wish this guy would sound a bit more excited about the opportunity to drive this car. Mate, most of us have to live our Ferrari experiences vicariously through reviewers like you - bring it to life for us! This just sounded like another day in the office.

Just looks, well not great it-s not a cohesive design at all, at 500k it need to tick all the boxes and it obviously doesn-t, only the very very wealthy will buy this, so they can gain access to super rare models such a the upcoming 812 GTO -.
