I'd like to suggest to Faffari that they take a close look at what Porsche do: Porsche decide what hole they want to fill in their range. They design a stunning car to fill the gap, and they show the car at the Geneva Motor Show. If the car appears at the GMS, then it is only because the car is scheduled for production. And when production begins, it keeps going for a minimum of 18 years. And in that time, Porsche take a well-designed car, and make it magical.

The wing is the biggest fumble in my opinion. Ferrari road cars, especially the track focused ones, have a certain air of novelty about them because they're usually graceful despite being effective. I.E. opting for a pronounced ducktail spoiler or active spoiler instead of a fixed wing. This obnoxious tacky wing brings down the car so much... not just because of downforce but in appearance especially. I think that it would be better if they made a track-only no-limits XX SF90 car to compliment the road car. Then the road car makes more sense.

[@fifteen8850]

You really think you know better than the Ferrari engineers?

[@budja1501]

@@fifteen8850 haha.. no. I'm not an engineer but I know a thing or two about design. There's ways where you can achieve considerable levels of downforce on a car without having to resort to using a fixed wing, and without having to create an unattractive looking car. Ferrari usually sets the benchmark for this with cars like the 458 Speciale, 488 Pista, F12 TDF, and even when they have added on a fixed wing for their ultra hypercars- I.E. the 599XX and LaFerrari FXX K, the wing has been visually cohesive with the rest of the design and arguably more beautiful than most visual downforce elements on other race cars. For this car, they could've hidden a wing in between the rear haunches like the Valkyrie does. the SF90 even sports a similar feature now. A massive ducktail akin to the 812 Competizione would have looked wonderful. I'm saying for a car that costs just under a million dollars, that wing looks cheap. I understand the car makes impressive downforce figures, but that's no excuse to neglect the outward appearance of the car. Look at how good the new GT3 RS wears its downforce.

[@fifteen8850]

@@budja1501 this is assuming you know more than Ferrari engineers which you absolutely *dont*. Also the RS has a massive wing

[@alecwilliams8425]

In all sincerity I'm not as blown away by this as I was when Ferrari released the FXX and the 599XX all those years ago. But In saying that I think everyone is undermining the figures this car produces in comparison to the standard SF90. To begin, it's lighter (all be it not that much) compared to the standard car even though it's got a lot more aerodynamic grip, it accelerates faster than the standard car and has a race-focused electronics package all amalgamated together to form a street legal version of a XX program car. The other cars from the XX program are legendary and truly amazing pieces of machinery but you have to remember this is still a road legal car, and despite that the SF90XX is more than likely knocking on the door of the door performance-wise of those track-specific cars. IMO It's an impressive car, but I think Ferrari jumped the gun by labelling it a XX program car even if it was their goal to make a road legal race car. The XX program cars have largely been barely track-legal monsters that Ferrari won't even let you take home, where as this car kind of undermines the whole prominence of "owning" an XX car.

[@amarjit_singh_]

So what are you trying to imply - does the name make it less of a car than what it should be?

[@Khan-ts2ji]

@@amarjit_singh_ The name is the basis for expectations. The speciale badge refers to a road car for the track whereas the XX program shouldn’t care for road, it should be all about performance on the track.

[@amarjit_singh_]

@@Khan-ts2ji Did you take a look at the full name - SF90 XX Stradale? Also, what's in a name if the car is a capable car?

This isn't the first XX road legal car. The 812 Competizione was meant to be the 812 XX but looks like the marketing team finally won with eh SF90.

[@jordanh3613]

It just looks like a C8 corvette with more aero now

[@kmcca08]

Man that thing is beautiful😍

[@andrewdavid6054]

It’s definitely an improvement over the original SF90 in terms of its looks, it appears a lot more refined and the rear is far less busy. Also, it may not seem as much of an improvement over the previous model when compared to lap times of other XX models, but I doubt the other XX cars were on road tires as they were track only. Put some track tires on this one and I’m sure it will be in the same sort of ballpark.

[@jameshorsman]

That's it - proper slicks must notch out a second or so?

[@lovelehstuff]

[@manameajeff]

A very impressive car performance wise. Though not entirely convinced by the design direction of mid-engined Ferraris of late. The 355 with its simple lines is such an enduring shape.

[@aseelhaque]

I'm no Ferrari hater, but a road legal XX Ferrari is just a bag of compromise. To get the visceral experience it is supposed to provide, you have to opt for the lightest configuration, which is CRIMINALLY compromised on road and the moment you add creature comforts, the weight goes up and just defeats the purpose of the visceral racecar experience. What some other people would not consider is the advantage a set of racing slicks provide. This road legal XX would never be able to wear them. Summarising, this is not a true XX and Ferrari knows it, which is why it won't be a part of the regular XX programmes that the previous cars got. Ferrari built this car so that they can put a higher price on the already outrageously overpriced SF90 stradale and sell them in vulgar numbers, unlike a true XX. A true XX is supposed to be a proper driver's car, with its sole purpose being to provide the driver with the ultimate track experience. This car just won't do that. All this is good for the money making side of the company but the purity of the XX has been tarnished by this move. Ferrari if you're reading this, Old man Enzo would be very disappointed. Further down the line, there WILL be an EVO variant of this car, which should be a track only car. People interested in a better track experience should wait for that.

[@therealmotorwalk]

Wow, this is an amazing video. I can’t believe that this hypercar is road legal. It looks absolutely gorgeous, and the aerodynamics are out of this world. The exhaust sound is truly amazing, and I love the interior as well. The wing perfectly suits the exterior design of the car, and I personally think that this is one of the greatest Ferrari vehicles ever made. This is definitely going to be an iconic classic car in just a few years, in my opinion. I love Top Gear videos because of the incredible production quality of their videos. I would love to see the Koenigsegg Jesko being reviewed by Top Gear. Keep it coming!!!😍👌👌🏎🏎🏎🏎

[@khanimambamhlongo9517]

is it possible that ferrari might make a full on track focused fxxk version??

[@bigmini2870]

This is not an XX car, it’s named by the marketing department but the whole point of the XX program is that it’s track only cars. This is to an SF90 what a Speciale was to the 458.
