Saw the EVO review and whilst I am sure it is a phenomenal car in all areas I just can't gel with it like I have with the Porsche and the McLaren, doesn't give me the "wallpaper worthy" feeling. I keep watching the reviews of the McLaren and just sit there in awe of the sound and fanfare that is presents.
LaFerrari hasn't quite got me, may be I will have to wait for the Chris Harris review.

It could also be all those reports of Ferrari fixing cars for reviews and questions surrounding reviews of Ferraris, that journo's criticising them get banned essentially. Whether it is true or not, it just sticks in the mind.

Excluding all that, it does sound good, that's for sure.

The P1 for Clarkson the 918 for Hammond and May in the LaFerrari, surely this has to be in the works.

I'll take a McLaren P1 in black please. This new era of 'hyper' cars is just awesome.

F..k em' I'll call it an LF

This dumb Ferrari obsession with needing to go against the names dubbed by the press has brought us the Enzo and now Ferrari LaFerrari.

It should bloody well be the F70!! Thats what it is. Enzo was an F60. It makes simple bloody sense!

Not a fan of Fazzes anyway, I', always fighting with my neighbor about it, He has a 599 Fiorano, and I'm a Porsche man, and he just can't understand why I'd buy a Porsche over a Ferrari.

Give me an LF for a day, that's all I'd want with it, then I'd get the Porsche or McLaren or an Adventador.
