Sensational new Ferrari is ready to blow Bugatti away with advanced chassis and powerful yet efficient twin-turbo V8...

Another report has Ferrari claiming a 1000kg weight.

looks ugly :ugh:

lol its just a dodgy photo shop. Looks like mostly an edited 458.

If you have seen vids of a FXX or even an Enzo at the track you know its already an absolute track weapon. To drop some significant weight the new super car will be just crazy.

we'll see what happens.

I'd prefer an all new platform rather than an enzo derived one.

2012 Ferrari F70 rendered

i like the look of the first one more, but with that aside, this car is going to be badass

 

[solepatch]

Looks like an enzo and a zonda had a baby.

they're not going to delay turbo lag and achieve the instant response of their other cars because their other cars used flat plane v8s - which are what makes a Ferrari a Ferrari. That instant response, willingness to rev, and insane noise coming from behind the driver.

Doesn't stop them from trying though with their inboard exhaust and turboes mounted in the valley.

even cars with direct injection and variable vane geometry plus twin turbos still suffer that fraction of a second of lag.

The rendering looks amazing, they should definitely aim for that or something similar for the production version.

2012 Ferrari F70

Ferrari’s new mid-engine supercar is slated to succeed the mighty Enzo.

Using knowledge gleaned from its Formula 1 race machines, the FXX Enzo-based track car, the FXX Mille-Chili lightweight concept, the 599XX track car and the 458 Italia road machine, Ferrari has much at its disposal. The Mille-Chili from 2007 gave a clear indication of Ferrari’s new path to achieving ultimate performance: a much lighter vehicle through greater use of exotic materials such as carbon fiber. Incidentally, “mille chili” refers to 1000 kilograms (about 2200 lb.), the target weight for the F70.

Unlike the naturally aspirated V-12-powered Enzo and the F50 before that, the latest word is that the F70 will switch back to a twin-turbo V-8 as seen in the F40. Only the F70’s direct-injected engine will use the very latest technologies to eliminate turbo lag, achieve 670–700 bhp yet return excellent (for a Ferrari) fuel mileage and low emissions (a hybrid powertrain is unlikely for the F70, due to the system’s inherent added weight). The F70 should reach 60 mph in less than 3 seconds. The target top speed of over 230 mph is reached with an array of drag-reducing active aerodynamic features.

Looks like a large mouth bass.

Dang! That looks pretty bad. I doubt Ferrari will ever produce something that ugly.

 

[boothten]

I actually kind of like it a little bit...

X2 it isn't that bad.

the front and profile views are alright IMO, but i can't stand the rear of that car. it looks cheap and childish. quad stacked exhausts are a no go for me they should've kept it classy and traditional i think
