488 GTB’s in Scottsdale. The Tomaso Collection)
Uhm, should I take the red one, the white or some
other Prancing Horse languishing at the Penske Auto Group’s facility in
Scottsdale?
For humour, I “Googled” 2025 current Ferrari
production model lineup and got the following answer from la Scuderia’s
official website.
Since Curious
Minds wanna Know, following my riveting No Fenders Penske Racing Museum Eye
Candy yarn…
The current roll call begins with the brand new
Ferrari F80. Followed by the SF90 Stradale,
SF90 Spyder, 296 GTB, 296 GTS, 12Cilindri, 12Cilindri Spyder, Purosangue,
Amalfi, Roma Spyder, 296 Speciale, 296 Speciale A, SF90 XX Stradale, SF90 XX
Spyder, 812 Competizione A, and the Icona series Monza SP1, Monza SP2 and
Daytona SP3.
Have to say this was far more models than I was
expecting, Momma Mia! As some of these model names are obvious; 12Cilindri for
example. While others I’ve just learned about for the first time, i.e.; F80,
Amalfi, Purosangue, 12Cilindri and Icona series…
Although many of
you will be several miles ahead of Mwah
about this, Ci!
The Ferrari F80 is Maranello’s 80th Anniversary
model. (2027) With the 799 units based upon the same 296 GTB platform. With
styling inspired by the iconic F40 and Daytona SP3. Along with styling cues
from the 365/GT4 Daytona and 12Cilindri. And features Butterfly doors, whatever
that means?
Yet this Ferrari sounds like a total Beast!
With its 3.0-litre tin-turbo V-6 engine mated to three electric motors, with
the hybrid having All-wheel drive. Derived from the All conquering 499P with a
staggering total 1,184bhp, Bravo! With 888bhp from the Internal Combustion
Engine (ICE) alone, thanks to the whopping 55.1psi turbo boost – the highest in
a production car ever.
Ferrari claims 0-100kp/h (62mph) acceleration
in 2.15 seconds. 0-200kp/h (124mph) in 5.75 seconds. And a top speed of
350kp/h, (217mph) Momma Mia!
The 12Cilindri is la Scuderia’s current front
engine 12 Cylinder Grand Tourer, hence its name. It utilizes the same 6.5-litre
V-12 lump’ found in the 812 Competizione, and is the successor of the 812
Superfast.
The Purosangue is Ferrari’ luxury five door
SUV, albeit la Scuderia prefers “Utility Vehicle”. Based upon the Roma
platform, the front engine utility vehicle sports the current 6.5-litre V-12
engine. And is designed to compete against other luxury SUV’s, a la
Lamborghini’s Urus and Aston Martin’s DBX models. As suppose Maranello couldn’t
forgo this lucrative market segment any longer, ci?
The Amalfi is the forthcoming 2+2 Grand Tourer
replacement for the outgoing Roma Berlinetta, set to debut in 2027.
Whilst I’m not even going to try describing the
unknown of Icona series Speciale models, and instead, let somebody else do the
heavy lifting.
