Wasting a V12 in this is sacrilege. It’s sad that Lamborghini is designing really sexy cars is and Ferrari is trying to do something which I’m not sure what it is.....Sent from my iPhonehttps://autoweek.com/article/car-reviews/2019-ferrari-gtc4lusso-review-cold-weather-testingRF4-4EVR

Despite the fact it uses a delicate and complex mechanism to change gears, at it’s heart, this generation of their F1 transmission is a glorified manual (still uses conventional gears, syncros, shifter forks, etc). There’s really no excuse for something so major to fail within such a short period of time.
I may have mentioned this story here before, but at one of the shows I attend, a 355 F1 drove up and I couldn’t believe how much I could smell the burning clutch when he drove past... Plus how the car bucked and jerked when trying to drive slowly. I caught up with the owner later and he said it was his first Ferrari. Oh boy...
Actually, tire rot is low on the priority list, cam belts being the topper! Remember, gotta do it every three years or else your engine will explode! Ha!
I really have no interest in owning a newer Ferrari. I would’ve considered nothing newer than the 456, but I’ve learned recently that they can suffer from major corrosion issues, even the pampered examples. It makes sense as I remember when they were introduced that they featured a new chassis construction technique that somehow they could weld the aluminum panels to the steel chassis (instead of just riveting/screwing or adhesive bonding together). I believe Pininfarina patented the technique(?). I’ve seen the effects of how aluminum reacts with steel. Yep, scratched that one off of my list.

Subject: Re: [Ferrari] F-1 transmission replacementPeter agreedBut you have to put it in perspectiveThe average Ferrari-Maserati driver does 3K miles per year !So in retrospect this was a lifetime of miles!One of the biggest expenses of a Ferrari owner is rotting tires and bad gas in the tank!I kid you notAnd the convertible crowd has to deal with hydraulic rams that lock up because they leave the top down rather than cycling itThere is a whole cottage industry now in Ferrari rams for the tops!
Ferrari has it madeThey sell a product that everyone wantsThey make just under the market so you always have to wait for oneThere are only, what 25 Ferrari authorized dealers in the USThe car deprecates just like every other one ( no matter what the sh*t rag FML says)Maintenace is no longer and issue because they come with a 7 year warrantySo the dealer can ask what ever he wants for a used one after he has raped the poor dolt for trading it in.When something does break it’s $185+ for labor and parts quality control of a LEGO set!I am just glad I can work on my car and have no desire to own any of the new cars.Still looking to buy a 575, it will happen, they are going back to reality slowly.There is a guy in NJ selling one at a clyde price, I will wait until it starts to snow and hit him for it.There is also one in BNA but it’s on consignment and owner is on meth with his pricing.It’s a 9 owner car, yes and the idiot is asking top dollar, somebody call him at let him know what color the sky is in the real world!
It’s insane
