My Next Ferrari ? The GTC4 Lusso - How 25 years has changed the game ?

[@details78]

Lovely video. Excellent Ferris Bueller quote. Now you just have to jack it up and spin the wheels in reverse to negate all of the mileage you've put on. 😀

[@Ratarossa2]

ha ha ha i was thinking that !!

So having two young daughters... I wonder about his view on Man-Made Global Warming?

[@alann7974]

@Graham Tell all the people in Texas all about Global Warming or Climate change to account for anomalies that scientists cannot explain.

[@williamcadman2075]

Carbon fibre trades at $15 per pound on Chicago mercantile exchange! High end car makers can retail it to suckers at between five and ten grand per pound. The fact you have to “spec up” a new car with a base price of over £200,000 must mean they are selling you short as a price gouging exercise. There is one born every minute.

[@glossamano1899]

Fantastic car! It’s a great all-rounder; a supercar, a GT cruiser, a 2 door hatchback shopping car and a car to pick the kids up from school in. To me the perfect, usable Ferrari. All those options I’d include except here in Australia, the £11,000 glass roof would be unnecessary and unwanted. Very nice review. Thanks for sharing.

[@mattpovah5952]

That engine note is astounding. Wow.

[@godchi1dvonsteuben770]

My favorite ”Money no object" Ferrari, the F50. Rarer than an F40, more comfortable, detachable roof, and 12 formula 1, flat plane, cylinders. My favorite realistic, daily driver, Ferrari, GTC4 Liesl... Amazing vehicle. The shooting break design is absolutely gorgeous. Powerful, yet balanced engine, with a gorgeous, and functional, interior. Just an amazing overall package from Ferrari. They put so many featured in this car, it's easily one if the best Ferrari's ever built...

[@timroberts2919]

Looks a lot more modern. Modern interior. Very useable and driveable

[@ecopilots1094]

agreed

[@thisnthat4318]

you got one then?

[@byronmills5952]

456 wins hand down on looks for me. The Gtc4 Lusso is a cracking car - but boy do they currently drop value like a stone - you can pick up a 12 month old highly optioned example now with tiny miles for the best part of 100k less than if you bought one brand new, which makes them wonderfully good value on the used market if you've got a couple of bob in your pocket and use the money you've saved to buy a tidy 456 to sit alongside it! 😃

[@juststuff5216]

I'm also a big fan of the 456, and it would be my second choice behind the f355 ... which I'd buy just for the sound. Problem with the 456 is reliability ...as it doesn't seem to have any!

[@LOTPOR0402]

Looks more like a modern day scimitar GTE ,than a Ferrari

[@TheMentalblockrock]

Agreed, I can't wait for Ferrari to bring back the Robin.

[@pereldh5741]

Scimitar GTE, who’ve ever seen one in the first place? 😄

[@markbennett6658]

Per Eldh I’ve owned one a 1975 yellow 3 litre V6 auto in 1990!

[@mikaeljonsson4686]

Great looking car, great review!🤩👍🏻

[@anjumparvaz9325]

[@TrevorS38]

I love the interior design from the seats back. I have no idea what they were thinking with the dash/steering wheels. All of the steering wheels/dashboards since the 355 look like arcade racers from the early 90s.

[@ducknorris233]

Reminds me of those custom hatchback Corvettes from the 70s .

[@JohnDoe-xp4iy]

I've seen a black one in person. Got so excited but my light turned green and had to drive off

[@Ratarossa2]

black would look fantastic on that lusso

[@thatelfdoesit]

Look at my insta iishumanjk it might have been mine!

[@johnnysmith863]

I'm not really a fan of modern sportscars but I really appreciate the Lusso. Maybe I'll get one as a daily... in 25 years or so. Also, the styling might not be everyone's cup of tea but personally I love the Breadvanesque, shooting brake style (Z3M Coupe, Scimitar GTE... or 250 GT SWB 'Breadvan'?)!

[@MarcSob22]

The Lusso is amazing!!

[@MyRetroWatches]

30 Ferrari's wow Scott. You are living my dream. Would still really like to hear the story on how you know so much about thes cars. Just a hobby for you or do you have industry experience. This was a great comparison and that Lusso is just on another level.

[@Ferraridude13]

No point in getting any of that exterior carbon fiber panelling, weighs more than the plastic and doesn't confer any advantage strength wise.

[@dsjavid]

The car is great but what is even more amazing are you daughters. They are adorable. I love your videos and can't wait for more of them. Cheers

[@246dinoGTS]

I love the looks, the bread van was a strange Ferrari but somehow it grew on me just like this shooting brake style has since the FF ...WANT !!!

i agree

[@keithm.404]

Reminds me of my 1996 Fiat Bravo, same colour and everything!

[@sainta2667]

Hahaha , right ! shame for Ferrari !

[@250danny]

Great video as usual Mr.R, yes you got to have 1 as your 2 special guest probably agree, must have that 13k Big glass roof and daytona leather seat, (probably without that alcatara strip that you couldn t find lol), i don't think carbon bits are critical for these car perhaps std silver panels would look more classy in long run, i personally think this GT4C bit over spec!!! yes off course the V12, (not the V8 T silly option lol) about colour... i think Tdf blue with these interior would look even better, hope you soon have one in your drive alongside the 456 360CS...

[@Ratarossa]

thanks, i liked the carbon it looked great with the body colour but i would be very afraid of damaging it

[@jameseast8510]

Maybe an FF would be a nice place in the middle for you, great video!

[@CaptainFisch]

and what have we learnend from this video: The 456GT Venice has less legroom than the lusso. i always thougt that the big station wagon from ferrari is bigger than the lusso. Well i was wrong. In my opinion the GTC 4 Lusso is the best allroundcar that you can buy as long as you do not need a van. But this interiör.. why? my eyes are bleeding... Oh thank god it is just the color of the seats... ah my eyes.

[@scotchgod8478]

What you forgot to mention: how much is the tow coupling? In case you want to pull your rv or sth.

[@Silverback1969MoonLandingLies]

What is an sth?

[@youcoulduseit7492]

Ya another fine presentation. If you can rotate the tire's with just a lug wrench. It probly could be an argument that it's a daily driver. Don't think I'd go to the wrecking yard with it though. ha ha still love that 456 especially if they fluxed the alloy the heads are cast from

[@KSL12]

Great video very tempted by the GTC4 Lusso.

[@Ratarossa]

I was shocked at how much i liked the car

[@artysanmobile]

That might be their most complex ever road car. You’re going to have your hands full. How in the world they sync the front axle gearbox with the rear drive is something I’d love to hear about. I don’t know of another all wheel drive car using so complex a layout. The engine view belongs in the Louvre.

[@jeffv103]

The front gearbox is engaged only for the first couple or 3 trans gears. Once a certain higher speed is reached the front gearbox disengages

[@Ratarossa2]

Great review I would certainly have one of these, maybe after a year of depreciation ?

[@thatelfdoesit]

After a year they stay in the low 200’s they dont budge

[@coreycohen6160]

Love the Lusso from the front and back, but from the side the rear just looks strange. I know Ferrari notched the back that way for more head room, but they could have made it more flowing....

[@Ratarossa]

i really like the lines, i tank in the flesh it looks much nicer than in pictures or video

[@walthansen6333]

Really dumb question: On a right-hand steer car, is the accelerator pedal still under the right foot ?

[@johnnysmith863]

Yes!

[@Ratarossa]

yes, the only difference really used to be the gear stick in the centre, but now with all the f1 system its the same just on the right side of the road

[@xjrrider6710]

You’ve inspired me to join the Ferrari family. A 2+2 but not quite the Lusso. I’m going back to your roots and starting off in a Mondial

[@TerranDiablo]

That spec on the interior is fantastic. Daytona seats. Full leather to the dash and headliner. Very hard to find one with Daytona seats!! Is that car for sale>

[@jan-hendrikbussmann4644]

It is a beautiful car, especially from the rear in my opinion. But the Italian flag batch on the rear does look like it came from some sales stand on a motorway gas station. And the exhaust tips would become black of their own just fine from driving and not cleaning them.

[@phil6747]

My 3 bedroom house with a garage cost less that the stereo and I've bought entire cars for less than the price of the centre caps.

[@williamcadman2075]

There is £200,000 profit for Ferrari on each of these cars. The suckers that “spec them up” cover total production cost of the car.

[@floridahummer]

2 kids and a Ferrari, you have won the lottery

[@easyeagle3730]

So glad Ferrari has kept up with the 1994 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo with rear wheel steering.

Cheers Scott,awesome vehicle!! I have noticed at 12:58 you have a little bit of Ed the duck going on!!🚒👍

[@Ratarossa]

lol i really did

[@ReemerFeddes]

The 456 has still more class. Maybe the GTC4 will have it in a few years as well but the 456 is proven timelessly beautiful.

[@gentnextdoor]

The Lusso will be a quirky collectors car in the future. It’s stunning and has that honeysuckle V12. Great vid

[@pajakratak9573]

That rims. Looks like bmw series 3 style.

[@DUB-sential]

I thought BMW kind of look

[@MikePaterson]

Really good video. Many thanks!

[@vincentagius2657]

Good all round review and a great car. If funds allowed, myself and my boys would love it as a daily. Always makes me cringe a little when you reference your stradale, yes you put a lot of time and money in sourcing genuine parts and building it up. But the fact is it’s not a stradale, and that would be reflected in the resale. Good job with it though.

[@oldanslo]

You got it backwards. The 456GTA is the great granddad of the latest GTC4 Lusso.

[@user-mg9he3qj3n]

Could we/you look at insurance for those wishing to purchase a Ferrari and where the best deals are?

[@Ratarossa]

yes absolutely i can share how i do mine on all the cars

[@bargibargibargi]

Loving the black and orange look

[@nathanrunciman88]

Paul Wallace (Supercars of London) drove that Lusso too. I think this time last year?

[@wizpin]

Love that car as well, in my pricerange when its 10+ years old. But Im scared with modern ferraris if they get old. What if the computers brake down? LCD screens etc?

[@Interzone1]

Oh man. Can anyone agree that a base spec GTC4 Lusso must already be a kick ass beat-everything-in-sight monster? With absolutely zero need for upgrades. C’mon it must be so! 🤩 Save a 100 grand! Bingo. Just a like that.

[@susanherbst6086]

So very cool watching all of you.

[@bariskocer]

Great car dude

[@enzorari]

Great review as always Scott. Indeed Ferrari has come a long way since the 456, but I still like the ‘grandfather’ car 😁. Is the V12 nowadays not a ‘derivate’ from the V12 from the 456?

[@themessenger5868]

Very nice Ferrari, but not my choice. I just can't get past the "Hatch" element to the Lusso. If I ordered one, I would order the absolute base model...it would most likely be the only one in the world and with money I'd save, buy a nice little cottage in the country to drive it to on the weekend. Thanks for the review.

[@billymania11]

The pricing on new Ferrari's is madness but it doesn't bother me. Their cars don't appeal to me personally as they are impractical and are not long distance cruisers. I still like to watch the videos however. For me it's entertainment. Your ratarossa is amusing but I like to see you take a better conditioned example and refit that for the modern era. That would be really cool.

[@LarryKippings]

Merry Xmas! I’ve owned a Lusso for 2 years now, covered nearly 20,000 miles. It most definitely is a long distance cruiser. Staggeringly amazing car.

GTC4 is ugly as sin - hint of the Breadvan. As a 456M GT owner, that was beautiful beyond - except the wheels looked unfashionable. You're sounding like a KZbinr, Scott, afraid they won't lend you another to review. Channel your Chris Harris.

[@Ratarossa]

I honestly loved the Lusso ...really would have one, just not at that price. It was a bloody good drive and the extra room over a 456 rear seats for the kids was much better and could actually be used. Didn't try the V8 version but the V12 really packed a punch.
