Prancing Horseshit

Yeah, so Ferrari’s not-so-little Duracell car has been widely panned, e.g.:

..which is kinda what they did, I think.  (No pics because I refuse to be party to mass vomiting, y’all.)

Best comment is from a former Ferrari honcho:

“At least the Chinese won’t copy this car.”

As someone commented underneath:  “Somebody call the burn ward.”

For those looking for relative values:

And yes, I know they probably did it to bypass the EU’s version of our awful CAFE nonsense.  Don’t care.  The Loo-chay looks like shit — about the same as the new Jaguar Faerie model — and who the hell wants an overpriced kitchen appliance anyway?

I bet they sell a jillion because it’s Ferrari, and the tifosi arrivisti  have never been renowned for their brains.  They’re welcome to it.

Here’s the thing.  If someone pointed a gun at my head and said “Here’s half a million-odd euros, but you have to spend it on a Ferrari or we’ll kill you”, I’d spend it gladly.

But it would have to be a creditable threat.

In Comments:  which Ferrari would you buy under those circumstances?  (And for the last time:  I don’t care about your fucking ’64 F-100 or 2003  Adam  Toyota Corolla.  Play the game.)
