Ferrari FF Review - Can You Fail To Fall In Love With This Ferrari V12? | A Second Opinion!

In today's video, while filming a JayEmm On Cars Ferrari FF review, James finds out that Ant is not a fan of the Ferrari FF - a Ferrari car with a V12, 4 seat and a shooting brake design. He first tries to convince him otherwise. The sound of this Ferrari FF has been enhanced with a Novitek exhaust system, making the Ferrari V12 exhaust sound even more special! But, Ant wouldn't let that sway him... So there's only one option and that's to put Ant behind the wheel and see if it's possible to not fall in love with this V12 Ferrari!

The Ferrari FF is a master talent - an unbelievable combination of talents! If somebody is not sure - try it out. I drove it for a couple of kilometers and the case was clear for me. My number one.

[@sportzntouring]

Is great. I'd still choose an F12 over the FF but, it's a great car for sure!

[@SimianWonder]

Good grief, that sounds outrageous, more than a shade like an old F1 car. Glorious.

[@sportzntouring]

Honestly, the video can't even do it justice. Sounded so good!

[@geoffohara203]

Love the interior “cockpit fish eye” shots, surprised you didn’t use them in the review video on other channel.

[@sportzntouring]

Ah, I filmed these with the Insta360 One X2. Still experimenting with how to use them here. It's unlikely they'll find their way into the main channel as there's a little more work in post production before you can edit with them.

[@sportzntouring]

More on the camera used, here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/np2wmaWCiZukaJI

[@54M0HT]

That wide-angle interior driving shot looking forwards is very cool, worth the cost of the pan roof just to do that! Great review, gave a good sense of what seems like a very desirable car.

[@sportzntouring]

I was really surprised. It was very very good! Glad you liked that shot. More like that in our latest video on the road legal F355 Challenge race car that we reviewed.

[@ManinaGarage]

You had me at HELLO! 🏎💨💨

[@sportzntouring]

Haha! Nice!

[@DCAISTHEWAY]

Dope episode. Like this other guy. It’s balances out Jays button ups.

[@sportzntouring]

Nice! Glad you enjoyed it -Ant a.k.a "this other guy" 😊

[@aust8273]

Sorry was a subscriber to this channel sooner, being long time subscriber to your main channel, the the alternative content. Got to love that FF engine note,

[@sportzntouring]

Better late than never 😊 Thanks for joining us! -Ant

[@pizmo75]

Got one for over a year now and love it every day.

[@eyewaszero]

Absolutely love the FF and the Lusso. ❤

[@sportzntouring]

I'm converted!!

[@RedC220]

The best real world all round car that Ferrari have ever built. Not the fastest, not the prettiest, not the most desirable. But it does everything so well that I have no idea what I'd ever replace mine with. When you look at what an E63,RS6 or B5 Touring cost now new (and the rate at which they depreciate) and you realise you can buy an FF for the same (or less) it becomes a no brainer. That's if you can find one. There are a little over 200 of these in the UK and there are so few for sale becuase once you own one you never want to get rid of it (as long as it's healthy!).

[@hpman911]

I think buying one is the least of your worries! The real expense comes with the subsequent running costs ie fuel, insurance and maintenance etc ..

[@RedC220]

Insurance is the same as my SL400 was and less than a Taycan 4S we had for a short while. Standard service is £1000 every 12months/12000 miles (at a main dealer - but was free for the first 7 years of it's life) with a big service every 4 years at £2,500 (again at a main dealer). I average 16mpg doing around 800 miles month. The reality isn't always the same as the scare stories on the internet. Sure you could have a major problems, but you can have that in any high performance car. The most important thing is buying a good one that's actually been used and well maintained. The bizarre obsession with super low mileage Ferraris leads to more issues than one that's had use and good maintenance. These aren't the delicate flowers they were pre 1990's they are well built reliable cars considering the performance. Put it this way, my FF has so far been fault free. My brand new Taycan 4S spent 3 of the first 4 months of ownership trying to be fixed before it was sold back to the dealer.

[@sportzntouring]

@@hpman911 well, based on James's experience, it's the repair and rebuild bills on the transmission... But worth it if you plan to keep it long term.

[@Sean_Farmer]

Tim's (Shmee 150) FF was terrific and his Lusso is such a great spec IMO and what I would want if I was looking for one. It's a great car!

[@RedC220]

You'll like the Ex Chris Harris car for sale on Collecting Cars right now if you liked Tim's spec.

[@benpenagonzales6014]

Defo getting some good vibes and feel to the channel now. Have a great Xmas break chaps!

[@sportzntouring]

Thank you! Getting there, slowly but surely!

[@jonathancollard3710]

FF is a grossly underrated car…always loved them.

[@nigeldeforrest-pearce8084]

Phenomenally Beautiful Photography!!!!

[@sportzntouring]

Thank you! Shots from both James and me mixed into this video. -Ant

[@gregnudnis387]

Nice concept incorporating friends - but I can’t help thinking the ‘friend’s opinion’ is our role as viewers to have and to hold and I watch Jay Emm to hear his opinions - not anyone else’s. Everyone has an opinion - and I press play on one of Jay Emm’s videos to hear his!

[@sportzntouring]

Thanks for the feedback. However, that's what JayEmm On Cars is for... Just James's opinion. That's not changing. For those who are interested in a contrasting opinion on exactly the same car, filmed on the same day, under the same conditions, this is one place they may get it... That's just not possible from the comments section. And, this channel actually helps make more JayEmm content possible... Because these videos are filmed on the days I help James film the cars for his main channel (that's often me driving in the fly bys when press cars are involved). It's one of the reasons this channel is a joint venture... So I can justify giving up a day's work on my own things to help James on his. So, by supporting this channel, people are supporting more driving content on the main channel.

[@martinjames672]

God, I love it. Perfect car for the Alps here. Unfortunately, my budget is too small. Checking an AMG C touring 4matic... first world problems eh??

[@sportzntouring]

These are great problems to have ☺️

[@amospizzey1]

Question please for the group , I’m starting to really like the FF I had a 599 and daily drove it for about a year but never loved it as a drivers car Is the FF a better driver car ?

[@winorbin]

Didn't used to like these, this car has seriously grown on me though. Would probably still rather have my dream 599.

[@sportzntouring]

Oooh, did you see the one in the Ferrari Challenge Silverstone video? The HGTE version? kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJC0mqKZpb-KqKM 😍

[@winorbin]

@@sportzntouring is that the one your son sat in? If so yes, what a machine, perfection

[@Fioravanti.80]

Sounds (and drives) better than it looks. Sounds glorious actually!

[@sportzntouring]

Oh, especially with the Novitec exhaust on this one 😍

[@northyorkshirefieldsports]

What sort of money is that exhaust? I'm loving these FF's and the sound they make.

[@sidelnie]

Review the Rapide S 8spd please! RWD and 2 extra doors!

[@fayney62]

This is my favourite Ferrari of all time...

[@sportzntouring]

Now, having driven it, I can understand. The Scud is still above it for me... But the FF is very cool.

[@robgoddard-lifeaftersale2462]

James I have a 2011 Rapide and you are very welcome to try it out.

[@sportzntouring]

Awesome! Can you email James via the email address in the description of any video on his main channel?

[@dadcars]

I agree on the looks but I commend Ferrari for going all out on rear space regardless of the side profile line it cuts… why anyone would buy a purolasagne 😏 for 4x the money is beyond me

[@sportzntouring]

I'm with your on that one! Although, the more I look at it the more I'm starting to like it. -Ant

[@alexbooth1982]

What exhaust is on this James? Going to have to get one for my FF!

[@hpman911]

It will invalidate your Ferrari warranty if you have one.

[@JayEmmAndFriends]

Novitec x-pipe and back box

[@4pevans]

But Antony which Ferrari should be your first?

[@sportzntouring]

I've got a special place in my heart for a particular road legal f355 Challenge car... But, I think I'll hold out for an F430 to start with, if I can find the right one 😁

[@garyleibitzke4166]

A Golf GTi that's been to the gym. 😂😂😂😂😂

[@seinsmeld13]

Giddy up Batman!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🥶

[@benpenagonzales6014]

It's the side profile of the FF for me. Has the same issue as a panamera wagon that the wheels are just to far apart it looks ungainly like a luxo barge L

[@sportzntouring]

Yeah, I'm not 100% sold in the styling but I'm just not into this shape of car generally.

[@laskos02]

Waiting for that XJS

[@keepcalm5026]

XJS? Weird. However, I thought they were ugly back in the 80s, now I think they're handsome and classy. Either my tastes have matured or my eyesight is failing. 😎

[@larrykippings]

@@keepcalm5026 Both things are true!

[@GryphLane]

It's an estate, not a hatch 😝

[@sportzntouring]

Even worse! I'm even less excited by estate cars! But, as you saw, it won me over in the end. -Ant

[@dadasadas9697]

Why it sounds even better than 812?

[@sportzntouring]

Ahhh, this has a Novitec exhaust. Briefly mentioned by James in the video, explained more in the main channel video.

[@dadasadas9697]

@@sportzntouring thanks for explaining!

[@Simon-bq4yj]

How many times can we see the same content repeated, next we’ll have ‘Today I drove a Blue one’

[@Canadian_Gamer]

I can't with these things. The straw that broke the camel's back is when I went to the movies last year and saw one of these parked in the underground parking garage. People who own these things don't give a crap about them and can often be seen driving them in harsh Canadian winters on the stock tires and rims! Kinda reminds me of the Porsche Cayenne, pure rubbish!

[@allomony4010]

the sort of rubbish that I would gladly own!!

[@navyrotc2012]

Proper use imo

[@robertharris7027]

Why it sounds even worse than a 365 GTB/4?
