Ferrari GTC4Lusso Review // $400,000 Of Practical Brutality

[@BigJigglyPanda]

These intros. God dammit I can’t get enough of them. Just do us a favor and throw some skits up on the MTH channel.

Hi Panda :D

[@chesspiece81]

When the FF came out I wasn't sure about the styling, but this is gorgeous with the right proportions.

[@bryanoakley5189]

Doug DeMuro gives this a styling score of 5. He couldn't be more wrong, and it's why I never trust any of his styling scores. I get that styling is subjective, but come on. Precious few cars are as gorgeous as this IMO.

[@-SP.]

@@bryanoakley5189 Nah that rear end is terrible I agree with Doug, they should have just made it into a hatchback

[@lotsofcurveslover]

Interesting you say that. I can’t get over the wheelbase looking too long for the body. It is, however, the only practical Ferrari.

[@chesspiece81]

@@bryanoakley5189 This and the 812 make me feel some type of way. If I had the money one of these on some HREs possibly lowered with some exhaust would be one of my daily drivers. This and maybe a Wraith or Cullinan Black Badge and a downpipe, exhaust, tuned, wheel and lowered RSQ8 over the Urus.

[@thomasrichards646]

I love this car but what would make it perfect for me is if the front end was as aggressive looking as the F12 Berlinetta.

[@purpleking6678]

They lost me when I saw this monstrosity

[@IAMANGROX]

For someone like me, the Ferrari GTC4Lusso is a car that will always stand above all the rest. All-wheel-drive, a big angry N/A V12, room for four, a brutal soundtrack, and looks that will take your breath away. It's the perfect recipe for a car in my opinion. A recipe that is dying, and will soon be forgotten, remembered only by those fortunate enough to have tasted it. You guys did this car a favor by giving it such a masterpiece of a car review. For that I thank you. You brought me to tears for a car that I didn't know I loved so much.

[@fredrce]

Too bad I've never seen one tested. The less powerful already trapped 128-129 mph on 1/4 mile. This is probably above 130 mph. It's light, spacious, luxurious, with a good 48/52 weight distribution. Awd also. Really can't find anything wrong with this.

[@saul_bloom]

What's amazing is you NEVER see one on the road. I've only seen one twice in my life, and it was the same car. Imagine Ferrari replacing this with an SUV. An atrocity.

[@burakhuseyinkunt8053]

"This might be it. The.. Ultimate.. Car..." literal chills!

[@ABoringTool]

I'd take this over any hypercar. Only thing close would be a zonda but that has 0 usability for more than a 30 min rip

[@DanielJW247]

[@asifnoaman8978]

[@Joseph_Green]

It’s because it’s true

[@kswitz7]

The fact that Thomas is now happily eating his words and the Purosangue has a naturally aspiration V12 is awesome. 18:36

[@mogradme8535]

The station wagon I've always needed

[@DefinitelyNotEmma]

It's a shooting brake For the sake of it an explanation: a coupé with a hatchback is a shooting brake, that's why all the 4 door "Coupés" with hatchbacks are considered shooting brakes (CLA, CLS, Arteon, GTC4). A wagon/estate is based on a sedan, with examples like the A6 Avant, E-Class T-Model or the Volvo V90 (which is considered the only "Oberklasse" wagon in germany, which puts it in the same segment as the S-Class or A8)

[@car-enthusiast3141]

@@DefinitelyNotEmma exactly

[@JW-ur1jw]

@@DefinitelyNotEmma In America we don't know the word "Shooting Brake," which is why a coupe shaped sedan is considered a "hunchback," or we just call it a hatchback, but Mercedes like to call coupe shaped sedans "4 door coupes," so anyways, names are confusing.

[@ceboz]

@@DefinitelyNotEmma Do words like “ironic” or “sarcastic” mean something to you?

[@DefinitelyNotEmma]

[@Ksoism]

Seeing this after three years made me re-love FF and Lusso looks and practicality. What gorgeous machines these are. But above everything else, how freaking good it sounds? No stupid continuous banging and crackling on the shifts, just beautiful engine noise that keeps building and reaching ever higher, again and again. A bit of pop on the downshifts is cool, but many manufacturers over do it so badly nowadays.

[@jessicakoenigsbach]

[@DefinitelyNotEmma]

@@jessicakoenigsbach "purolasagne" lol

[@phoonarchy]

Lexus's new IS500 is such a bold move, NA V8 in 2021. If Lexus can put that out to the world, Ferrari probably will be able to make NA V12s until the end of times. I'm personally not a fan of Ferrari as a brand but man, they make some incredible pieces of art, fast art.

[@Mgoblagulkablong]

Sad thing is, they could just build a tiny 1l V12 that runs on natural gas or synthetic fuel and use it for a hybrid drivetrain but they won't do it, they will just stop building engines only to maximize profit and make up stupid lies about pure EVs saving the planet just to hide their greed.

My boss at a performance mechanic I worked at for a while owned one of these. One day, his daily was low of fuel, so he naturally drove his GTC4 to the workshop. I asked him what owning one was really like. He loved driving it, but said that the fuel was super frustrating. Keeping in mind he wasn't a super wealthy guy, not like most Ferrari owners. However it still baffled me that he drove it to work as his daily alternative.
