FF Drive

The good people at Ferrari Fort Lauderdale gave me their FF to drive for a day. I can tell you this car is superb. It is massively powerful, yet unexpectedly nimble for a GT of its size and proportion. It is eye catching and makes wonderful noise. The interior is terrific.

Seats are supremely comfortable. The DCT works perfectly is as in the 458. The front wheel drive is imperceptible, save for the sensation that it helps claw the car out of a corner or sweeper with incredible thrust. The engine and exhaust note are great. As with many other cars, seeing it in the metal is entirely different than in photos or video.

Take a look at Ferrari's 'Tailor Made' website to see a sampling of the near endless modifications that can be made to its appearance (or any other Ferrari you may order).

I think Ferrari has another hit with the FF. Check it out if you have the chance.

Thx for sharing! Really nice of them to let you use the FF. Is the engine noise similar to the 599GTO's??

Ramius is on a distinguished road
The FF really is a good car there is no denying it, the only downside is actual usability. How many areas in North America can you really daily drive a 400k car in without having the experience ruined by constant worry? I think this car was purpose built for the Swiss, Monaco, wealthy enclave living type.
