Ferrari GTC4Lusso T - What's it like with a V8?

I'm in Italy to drive the Ferrari GTC4Lusso T, now available with a 3.9l twin-turbocharged V8 power unit providing 610PS and 760Nm of torque, creating an interesting option against the heavier V12 unit found in the regular Lusso. The new car is also a rear-wheel-drive only option, offering a new driving experience for a different and younger customer base, but what's it like on the road?
Thanks for watching, Tim

[@patrickpichal2136]

I think it's a perfect Ferrari. You have the beautiful design and more space inside, but you also have the powerful engine.

[@TAEbot]

Always enjoy your reviews of the interior especially bc most reviewers skip it... Thanks Lego!

[@chud_odin_son2058]

love the editing in this video. I think the music fits perfectly and a great review from shmee again. always a massive (jealous) admire of your work

[@Tully3674]

This was one of Tim's better videos I've seen in some time. Very informative. Thank you.

[@pacegagliardo3404]

Who's loving Shmee's new car collection with the beautiful Astons?

[@icebreakertech]

Yes the V12 sounds better but I think the V8 suits the car quite well. And the price difference is a big thing, especially with our stupid tax system (the Netherlands)

[@nighthawkone8596]

icebreakertech well I think when you have enough money, you don't have to ask you this sort of question, you buy always the best, and tax system is not a problem too because your money is not in the netherland but somewhere in Luxembourg or in Caïmans Island

[@TheFede8888]

Trust me...here in Italy we have a super tax that start around 250 hp...I know what you mean...

[@nighthawkone8596]

If you are the owner of this kind of supercar you don't need to think about tax... I mean you are rich or you are not. If you really have a lot of money you buy what you want when you want and you don't care about tax at the same time... Unfortunatly the economical system is like this making very rich people who can buy everything and share anything and more and more poor people who can just dream and sharing a lot of things

[@bilibiliism]

Nighthawk One Probably what you said is true to hyper car owners like lafarrari. But gtc4lusso is not that expensive and much more practical. People who are not rich enough to ignore taxes can still afford it.

[@joelririassa7094]

Jorn Bosman haha echt he

[@Shmee150]

Back behind the wheel of a brand new Ferrari - the new V8-powered GTC4Lusso T - I ask myself the question; what's it like to drive and how does it compare to my FF and its bigger brother with the V12! Which one would you prefer?

[@godshivamylove7549]

Shmee150 you should have showed mr jww and benziben in the video for atleast a few seconds....not good that you did not show them....

[@edvardabelvik4045]

Well, I like v8s, but going down from that fantastic v12, is not something I would do.

[@Shmee150]

Ben, James and I shot a second video together :)

[@edvardabelvik4045]

And I dont like the Ferrari v8 sounds

[@godshivamylove7549]

Shmee150 thats fantastic would love to watch it...i enjoyed watching you 3 together in mr jww's video 😄👍and i like your prompt replies 🙏

[@matbazz]

Great review Tim, very thorough ... I especially like the detail from being in the back seats. Important stuff that not many talk about. Nice one!

[@luishenriquesousa7956]

Man!!!!! I love this new kind of videos!Very nice Shmee! xD

[@yardelli]

Strange not seeing Pininfarina badges adorning Ferrari Wings anymore :( GTC4Lusso was in-house... The walk around the cars and the complete look inside showing menu's / trim / buttons etc. is exactly why I prefer KZbinrs car reviews over TV stuff. Shows the car enthusiast exactly what they want to see - the car! Thanks again Tim.

[@pete5044]

I love getting my daily Shmee fix whilst eating my breakfast. Thanks for the great videos buddy!

[@lucassmith3100]

loved the video. professional,informative,and enjoyable to watch. excellent job

[@zacharyboissinot7210]

Loved the presentation with the music!!!

[@gigiandrada8336]

Well done as always Tim! 👍🏾

[@acemace4491]

Thought this was a much more professional shoot camera angles and editing was on point well done shmee and your team getting better and better more of this style of reviews love the stats and more in depth that you do cheers :-)

[@damo7461]

Your vids is getting better tim! Keep up the cinematography production! Also, nice music choice sir!!

[@sublimemymind23]

loving the new editing Shmee, keep it up dude!

[@clockman47]

THANKS, TIM AND CREW

[@jayjones3629]

Excellent review mate. keep up the good work.

[@sesto194]

love the scenic shots with the music

[@pranavg3832]

Tim your videos are evolving day by day and I was Astonished to see your schedule in jww's channel

[@Shmee150]

Busy times :) Shot three videos today ;)

[@MrUltraworld]

I love the lines and that sound.

[@rahul675Lt]

those gearshift s were pretty flamboyant #jww video 😂😂

[@warren6815]

That colour is stunning!!

[@MrJdp1968]

Why would anyone pick this over the V12?

[@noahlindegaard9824]

julian pierce its cheaper

[@MrJdp1968]

Diego Delgado If you can afford the V8 I'm sure you could afford the V12, Tim talks about spending 60K on options so a 36K price difference is nothing.

[@MrJdp1968]

Diego Delgado I know it's cheaper, if you've got 200K to spend on a car I'm sure you'd want the V12 under the bonnet!!

[@MrJdp1968]

Noah Lindegaard I know it's cheaper,but when you've got 200K to spend on a car then the 36K difference between the V8 and V12 isn't that much.

[@MrJdp1968]

Hassan 504 it's only 50kg lighter and 6mpg better,personally I'd sacrifice that and enjoy the performance and noise of the V12

[@freddytommek]

Love your reviews, i don´t care so much for the driving, so i always wait for your in depth interior tour.!

[@DennedTV]

Proff that JWW really shook up the editing game amoung that car KZbinrs, when even Shmee have started putting in the effort

[@dhruvs.2310]

This is my new dream car! Speechless when looking at it!

[@nickk9499]

Shmee reminds me of the EVO car magazine founder who also used to make youtube review vids in a similar style and attention to detail.. what a pro !!

[@manuelguzman692]

Nice work on the shots and editing!

[@omen2332]

I was looking forward to this video :D

[@dory4498]

I'm a bigger fan of the naturally aspirated V12 4WD version... anyone else?

[@troystcyr3771]

That awd system is a fucking nightmare

[@JohnnyWishbone85]

The two most fantastic Ferraris ever made, the 288 GTO and the F40, were powered by turbo V8s.

[@jamesclery9809]

I bought one!

[@mrwick7961]

those roads look like heaven. awesome vid

[@benediktkonighofer4524]

again nicely edited ;) congrats

[@dagoebam]

Shmee keep up the good work! Haters gonna hate...that's not gonna stop you to be successful!

[@oohsofast]

loved the video editing especially in the beginning with the intro of the car and the music. keep it up. Good FF replacement, hint hint. lol

[@chasinsunsets917]

Im back into the car world after a break of a well, a long time! Still have my bikes and I do like the channel. Given the choice, has to be a V12!

[@Shreddah]

Good and honest review.

[@spadgm]

Great vid, I would be more than happy with the turbo V8, love the color too!

[@808murcielago]

Shmee I have to say I like the new changes in your videos!

[@Shmee150]

Thank you! We are not done yet :) More is coming

[@_kijetesantakalu]

Tim that B-Roll was frickin' dope. Keep it up.

[@Shmee150]

Uh there was no b-roll ;)

[@_kijetesantakalu]

Eh you know what I mean

[@Shmee150]

Yup mean the drive by shots and close up ;) We are doing that more :)

[@2020nallano]

Good work Shmee 150

[@diego432hz]

Ferrari is making so beautiful cars

[@stuad70]

Brilliant review Tim. I really appreciate the detailed information and look around the cars you review. Personally I think I'd be happy with twin turbos and a V8 and keep the £36k.

[@larsvannijverseel2244]

I love your videos they are very good

[@tahir17501]

benzeneben is killing it on the edits and filming

[@Qgamer24]

Top quality video. Loving the 50fps

[@alxdsnts]

fuck yes shmee!! loving the edit at the beginning!!

[@chrisjohnston3077]

I love the car. Very cool balance of sporty and practical. Really beautiful too!

[@caioronnau5226]

@2:24 can we take a moment to appreciate that shot and how the light shined on the cars lines...

[@rafiulhaque8064]

The v12 is the one I would go for and good work on the quality

[@madgamer574]

insane editing

[@ineedthatcar7169]

@Shmee150 I dont think any of the videos from any car vloggers do this car justice - I saw the V12 version in Mayfair yesterday for the first time and I have to say I was gobsmacked as to how beautiful it is in person. This isn't a criticism of you or your recordings obviously but in person the proportions just look spot on and on every camera on youtube it just looks slightly awkward. Great car, great soul just a shame the V12 is lost - keep up blogging I am a fan despite the haters below!

[@sarahbecharwesterberg2656]

Big fan of the V8 version! Bigger fan of your videos though, love from Denmark Tim!

[@MTobin1000]

one heck of a sweet ride....

[@343_GuiltySpark]

Finally (and i realize it may not be the first video) in something higher than 30FPS!

[@kaosps3]

The first two minutes feels like a TV demo video lol

[@MrCarGuy]

Fantastic color combination.

[@ikmal63h17]

I just testdrive Ferrari GTC4Lusso last week and it was amazing supercar👍.You guys should buy this supercar!

[@NldDutchSkill5]

This spec looks amazing...

[@aurelian1]

Now planning a vacation to Tuscany because... hot damn that's a gorgeous landscape. Just wish I could bring a GTC4Lusso to drive through it!

[@hornyjesus2504]

Those new forged wheels are gorgeous!

[@kristofer4550]

that tach is so smooth

[@kaurvali]

That paint 😍😍

[@agerasimas]

come on shmee, Your show was one of a kind and now You are jwww uing it

[@Shmee150]

LOL in what way? ;)

[@agerasimas]

the music the angles of film the style as if all of You guys i'am following and enjoying profoundly are watching each other and copying even solomondrin. think out side the box be different dont try to craete a template of cartube You were one of the first and be the first ! p.s. a great honor to read Your reply

[@kraenk12]

Andrius Gerasimas I agree...it seems as if he got some wrong advice by Mr JWW.

[@GarthLovesTRAVEL]

Shmee this car is far from a upgrade to the FF it's a whole new car.

[@ShunguRocks]

I like this car a lot thanks to you. I like the V12 version more.

[@jasondaywalker1949]

Gorgeous!

[@hbally13]

Thank you great car good comments.

[@javierdiaz5089]

0:46 when you see your new little brother

[@sheldonwhite4960]

that car sounds so good

[@sbklvr]

God damn, Ferrari can design wheels. Those are some sexy rollers on that thing.

[@Sabba7h]

Idk about anyone else but I've been really digging the new editing style. Also am I the only one that thinks the V8T suits the GTC4 better than the V12?

[@kevinhearts616]

I wld go with the v12 n as u said theres nothing else that can replace the ff r lusso other than its OWN model,there the answr lies! In regards,i do feel that Shmee nailed it with the in depth review while JWW just did a summary of it.well done Shmee!!Greetings frm KENYA!

[@ejmfletch465]

I personally think the v8 sounds awesome/better! Great review Shmee 🚗💨

[@vhateverlie]

EJM Fletch I think Ferrari should've down graded to V10s Ferrari used to make amazing one back in F1

[@patrickpelletier6315]

vhateverlie Ferrari has only made V10's for their F1 team. it's still to thirsty for the regulations nowadays (Lamborghini are going to have trouble when they have to adapt because they only have V10's and V12's)

[@syahrezakurniawans65coupe]

Thanks A LOT

[@sgdtv1368]

FF replacement right here (maybe a V12)

[@ZZPxFTW]

that dark red with tan daytona seats? shmee, i believe this spec is ALMOST as beautiful as your ff

[@adambadri6161]

Nice intro!!

[@brianantnssn5177]

Keep taking benzenben with you when you can, it dramatically improves your quality.

[@thejagerbomber3782]

Well done throwing it around a bit great country side I was there a few years ago but keep throwing cars around a bit i think thats what people want to see

[@Ensitac]

i think the v12 version of the GTC4Lusso is the only replacement to the FF. But the price has to comes down first for SHMEE to get this.

[@dennyshonda]

I like this.

[@MHasnain2663]

What a nice FIAT .

[@Bryan-fg3ey]

do you know how much all the options as fitted to 'your one' would add to the Base cost Tim? other than the colour(which I don't think the shape lends itself to red) it seems a lovely spec.

[@dimitrijordan8414]

finally a super nice interior in a ferrari

[@nighthawkone8596]

Very nice video Tim as usual👌. First impression is that car doesn't sound like a Ferrari but more like aMcLaren 570... maybe because of the twin turbo V8. Very good impression of the exterior and interior equipment, such a nice colour, but definitevely not impressed by the engine under the hood. After testing the V12 and hear it this model looks so fade.

[@bringbackhipv]

DRINKING GAME!!!! Do a shot every time Shame says manettino in this video lol.

[@edvardabelvik4045]

Is this V8 the same as the v6 in the Giulia quadrifoglio just With two more cylinders? The displacement per cylinder on these two engines are the same =) Giulia v6: 0,483 liter per cylinder gtc4 lusso t v8: 0,487 liter per cylinder

[@Shmee150]

Yup it is.

[@Grenyas]

Barely uploaded and people already disliking... smh

[@Storck9000]

Haters gonna hate.

[@hammond9866]

when he hits 3k revs WOO

[@alanwayte432]

Cyclegod OMG what a stupid remark.....lots of envy and jealousy on display...maybe the clue is in "cyclegod" must be a petrol head hater....embarrassing

[@patrickpelletier6315]

thatallredheadude it doesnt come in manual if that's what you meant as "autos"

[@jo05dk]

Still using "gay" as a negtive word ey? Please wake up join the rest of us in the 21st century. It's not cool.

[@mztrdro]

Love their steering wheels, besides the Vulcan's.

[@brettlazor8219]

What a beautiful well crafted vehicle, don't knock it til you try it

[@hugopetch5364]

Shmee, pls get one ❤

[@itswhitenoise9607]

This kind of car requires thinking to justify it. Obviously not as dramatic as the V12 version but it has its perks.

[@brandonreid8076]

i think if you havent ever had the FF or the GTC4 Lusso V12 option you wouldnt feel like you were missing out on something by getting the V8 because it is still a 610hp ferrari engine that sounds amazing and has plenty of power and without knowing what the V12 is like I think that is enough for most people especially when you consider the 36,000 pound difference.

[@kraenk12]

Brandon Reid sounds ok but amazing it is not.

[@the-boring-car-guy]

GTC 4 Lusso t

[@simonpierrard1887]

V12 all the way for me as well ! Tim, your videos are awesome ! The editing is spot on ! Really enjoying your content at the moment :) Cheers from Belgium

[@anthonysnook1098]

Thank you Tim; enjoyable as always. The new Lusso 12 and 8 aren't unique you know: I've suggested to Autocar that the new Panamera Sport Turismo bread van IS a direct competitor especially in Turbo and (presumably upcoming) Turbo S forms, and suggested they do a comparative road test. I suspect you WILL swap the FF for the Lusso V12. Why don't you do a comparison when the Porsche becomes available? Best wishes Tony

[@Shmee150]

Let's see what we can set up as soon as both cars are available.

[@dsal9640]

1 mill subs will be well deserved mate.. keep up the good work! ignore the immature haters. most will be 12 yr old kids or grubby shit kickers anyway. Good people know hard work!

[@harrylewin9129]

If it's rear wheel drive only shouldn't it be called the gtc2 lusso🤔🤔

[@ilmiosmani3689]

Harry Lewin i think 4 stands for 4 seats

[@patrickpelletier6315]

Harry Lewin the 4 is indeed implying that it is a 4 seater.

[@devilmaycry0917]

it has 4 wheels so it's called GTC4

[@hariznonis]

Eyasluna nahhh it's called the GTC4 because it has four air-con vents

[@harrylewin9129]

Hariz Nonis think it will have more than four airvwnta

[@snoopdog9659]

nice car
