I think its awesome. Looks like a cadi in the front and a ferrari from the side, and a subaru on the track:D Maybe its their answer to the Porsche Cayenne?

I see where they're going with it. It's probably for those with big money, wanting a bad A$$ Ferrari,but,also room to carry the kid and some diapers as well. There's probably a market for them,and that means mo' money.

Meet the shock new Ferrari FF, a replacement for the 612 Scaglietti.

As well as being the first four-wheel-drive Ferrari, it’s described as the company’s most versatile four-seater ever, and has unexpectedly been unveiled with best in class cabin space and boot capacity figures. It’s not a hardcore supercar to sit above the Ferrari 458 Italia, then; it does, though, come with a typically potent power source under that long front bonnet.
 
Powering all four wheels for the first time is a naturally aspirated 6.3-litre V12 direct injection engine, with 651bhp (at a typically howling 8000rpm) and 504lb ft of torque. Those figures are enough to hustle the 1790kg FF (dry weight) from 0-62mph in a claimed 3.7sec, while the top speed is a distinctly supercar-esque 208mph. Though aiming for that four up and full of luggage is probably ill-advised…


As far as the backseat -- Yes it seats 4 just like it's predecessor did.

Good christ almighty, that thing looks just about like what cats cover up in litterboxes, and I'm being nice.
