Getting An Espresso In The NEW Ferrari 296 GTS!

[@SpontaneousEvolution]

Sam just a suggestion, would be nice to see a graphic or map of where these journeys go as you work your way from A to B. Just so we can get a visual idea of the distance and parts of the world you're in.

[@groan_of_tedium]

Check out ordinance survey over here.

[@samikhan-gf9hm]

TOTALLY AGREE!

[@Dr.Bob85]

Same! Also great for us viewers to plan our next trip so way can drive this road as well!

[@obsidian....]

That would be cool

[@mr1zzle]

Love the motorcyclist in the background taking photos of the car at 8:15. I’d be doing exactly the same. Great video again Sam, despite the obvious pressure of time. No surprise you managed to fit a coffee in all the same. ☕️

[@neilmcmahon]

Just type the time into your comment in the time format and it create a link to that time stamp automatically, e.g. 8:15

[@anantrajredkar4697]

That guy was a paid actor😂😂

[@heathen_7]

It’s incredible you film most of these by yourself. One of the best to do it!

[@lukehiron8215]

There’s no way he films the drone and fly by shots whilst driving the car all by himself, there has to be someone with him

[@philipgreensmith1694]

Really like the 296 styling, maybe even more than the SF90 👍 Another great video Sam, thank you 😊

[@gio.2381]

Every single time you post it’s a delight. I genuinely don’t understand how you can keep this quality in all of your videos, without a professional filming crew, and under a strict schedule. Incredible, absolutely incredible, best automotive content on the internet. Been watching for many years

[@Driver_88]

Big fan of the 296 Styling, it's elegant

[@douchetimes]

Its the ugliest Ferrari

[@viniciusmagnoni6492]

Agreed, it's so fluid, it really remembers me of the Dino, beautiful car.

[@Elphax]

@@douchetimes the uglies by far is the roma, which looks like Fiat Barchetta and Jaguar F-Type had a baby. Disgusting.

[@RAZGR1Z]

@@douchetimes That would be the SF90.

[@aidanjohnson7571]

@@RAZGR1Z nah, it's the SP3. SF90 is a close second though

[@js3602]

No one does KZbin videos quite like Sam. Equally spectacular are the cars and scenery he films. And - you gotta love a guy who drives his 360 and enjoys the life! Keep it up Sam ol' Boy!

[@mgrmln]

This 296 and the McLaren Artura owe an nod to the BMW i8 which pioneered this formula, along with CFRP construction in 2014!

[@carloscanizares4699]

A wonderful start to my Sunday. Thanks Sam. As a fan of Ken Burns in college, a BTS doc would be very interesting. A look into how you make arrangements to drive the cars is something I’m sure many would love to see. It’ll be complex, I know, but peek into your world would be epic.

[@raytobing6944]

this 296 gts is beautiful! nice spec really fit to daily drive with sporty yet elegant appearance. and of course sam, your video really makes it even better!

[@harip.3240]

Your videos have so much character Sam. An absolute blast to watch every one of them!

[@kingofthecamping6315]

12:27 When you know Tim is there just because of his giggle

[@mufc_kenny8186]

Was wondering around 11:05 if he was there bcuz I remember Sam saying he and Tim met up in Italy recently in a prev vid but Tim didn't want to say much. Can't wait for the car.

[@TomWelbournDrives]

Beautiful video as always Sam, keep up the good work! I absolutely love this car such a good looking thing

[@studiolezard]

Your editing is getting better and better. Nice work. I love how you brushed off Shmee. At least you don't make the same videos day after day.

[@amoghgajankush1975]

I love the sound of this engine and I think this Ferrari is a step up over the previous generations

[@drivenmad2089]

I think the 296 looks fantastic! Just not sure if I’d want to actually buy one with my own money. Think I’d still go for a 458 or 488. Or if it had to be a new Ferrari probably the Roma. BUT I can’t afford any of those so it doesn’t matter 😂 Great video once again Sam! Really appreciate the effort you put into these!

[@ElTurfStuff]

Coffee, Cars, Camera's - what a hard life you live! As usual, your work was brilliant. I love these trips you do and the production quality is fantastic. Allons-y!

[@portman2396]

Sam once again demonstrating what can be achieved when you care about content and evolving it. Rather than some certain UK car KZbinrs who stand around saying “lad, yes lad, punchy spec, lad” for 10 mins. Keep it up Sam 🙌🏼

[@TheCabrooster11]

Never mind your committed driving of the 296 GTS on the “time limited”test drive which was great to virtual ride along with, I think your drive from there to Paris in the 360 in just over 10hrs is going to be a different level of commitment 😉👍

[@kevinDG7]

Sam all the respect for all the hard work and the content is just so good

[@wouternagengast8452]

What a day it was Sam! Good that you take your time for your espresso, those are the moments you remember when thinking back☺️ hope you had a good drive to Paris !

[@sotirispa]

Not being a huge Ferrari fan, I felt like the new models, especially with the liveries, they can look the same to someone out of the brand (yes same with Porsches, which I'm a fan, and I sound stupid). But Ferraris WERE different. So, the SF90 and F8 Tributo etc... You know... BUT. When I saw this car, knowing how the previous 296 looked, I thought "THIS IS THE CAR", this is freaking nice. After watching your and others' reviews, I really appreciate Ferrari now, moving on with the technology etc, even though everyone likes a V8 or V12.

[@paulspensley1094]

Beautifully filmed although disappointingly light on detail, how does the GTS drive compared to the GTB, how quick does the roof fold compared to others and will it fold at 30mph, is the aluminium chassis less stiff than the GTB, is the driving position different, does it weigh more... etc etc

[@dannymunk2982]

Content this year just keep on beeing on an insane level mate!

[@craigcampbell1843]

Whoever has been choosing the music for this series has been doing a great job.

[@keynesianeconomics4113]

Listening to jazz on my weekend drives with a coffee next to me is when I'm at my happiest. These videos are a bit of me.

[@gyanpatel4537]

the different angles that you do is such a task and it is really hard work i mean i really appreciate it

[@vedelcarby773]

This guys work is always on point

[@GRYL180]

5:51 visceral joy...very good presentation indeed.

[@maxreimann6734]

I'm not sure about this color, but I do think this car looks rather nice. I think Argento Nurburgring or Grigio Alloy and body colored roof would suit this car very well. Big improvement over the F8!

[@club.alfagt]

Dude your videos are top notch. True grassroots enthusiast feel all the time. NEVER CHANGE

[@grahamreddel5682]

Sam, Congratulations on a fantastic review of the car. You are really developing your skills as a professional. The days of being just another a KZbin-er are gone. I think you are bringing much more balanced snd considered reporting to the show. Keep up the excellent work. PS: tell Tony my 1993 Alfa Spider has only ever broken down once in 29 years. The high voltage coil finally gave up last year. So a 90 Euro replacement was necessary. And it used to commute between Paris snd Stuttgart regularly. Never a breakdown. Now it’s living most of its days in the Alps.

[@timothysmith2262]

Was just going to 👍🏾 one of the other comments but needs to be said how great this episode was. Car content, cinematography and commentary all spot on. Well done

[@BMW7series251]

Brilliantly filmed video Sam. Love the car as well. Cheers, John, UK.

[@RAZGR1Z]

Thanks Sam. Great video. I'm still not a fan of Ferrari's new design language but I'm sure the cars are riveting to drive.

[@samcasey]

Sam your level of content is just rocketing up in quality!! Absolutely incredible video which I thoroughly enjoyed as always…

[@tredfxman]

To be honest his quality always been Top Notch!

[@samcasey]

@@tredfxman Yeah you are very correct, but I meant rather in the last couple years it’s on another level. Never meant this to be offensive btw. I’ve been a fan of his since 2016, I’m a proper long term fan aha

[@scalecrawlnl]

It's Seen Through Glass Sunday 👍Ferrari looks good, perfect canvas for the tuning experts. Can't wait for the Novitec, LW, RDB LA version. Widened, stanced. Thank you Sam and I hope you'll get your motorcycle license, I am sure there is a rider inside eager to explore the world on two wheels. Imagine a collab between Itchy Boots and Sam. Cheers boss.

[@garyleibitzke4166]

Do you find it at all disorienting to switch from right hand to left hand drive cars and back again ? I only experienced a right hand drive car a LONG time ago as a rental in Hong Kong and I found I had to really concentrate to not screw up.

[@faisalleeds]

Great video Sam, especially considering the time constraints. This is definitely the best looking of the new Ferrari lineup.

[@rogerpayne5336]

This is the best sounding v6 turbo engine I think I've heard. Deep, sonorous, sound...I'm thinking it sounds better than it looks. The looks are bit wishy washy especially the front lights. Still, great engine.

[@dailydriven991]

I wasn’t a huge fan of the 296 at first but in that spec with your backdrops it did look stunning. Looks like a fantastic road trip car.

[@stevieg7403]

If it had round tail lights it would have been close to perfection.

[@andrewgibbs5096]

Less than 2 minutes into the video and mentions “coffee”. You’re obsessed!

[@mattsayer9019]

Some of your best camera and audio work yet, really enjoyed this one Sam

[@MRVSKIN]

Have to agree Sam. Wasn’t too enamoured by the GTB but the GTS is gorgeous when the roof is down. I do find it funny though because when you was giving it some beans it didn’t sound any different than the MC20. Will be interesting when and if you get the chance to drive the spider version of that. Great video yet again 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@pnsp33]

One of the best looking new Ferraris. The Dinoesk hips in the rear half of the profile, the inlets in the front and seems to have the right size. Much prettier than the sf90 which looks fuzzy and massive, imo. Just the rear looks a bit bland.

[@scottguenther-lee2214]

Great video work. My twin brother has the same perspective when it comes to coffee. Then we are rushing off to get some place that we are now behind schedule on. Big smile. Loved the scenery and content. 💙👊

[@lewispark4838]

Didn’t expect to say this, but I think they managed to keep the ferrari-ness in terms of the sound. It doesn’t have a V8 roar, but it certainly sounds like a ferrari. Whoever did the sound tuning, he nailed it.

[@Paul-D]

Im still totally undecided on whether or not I like the 296 styling. Probably because I haven't seen one in the flesh yet. Which is unusual because normally its never long before I spot a new Ferrari or something somewhere lol

[@Chris71920]

Futa pass is a great road! Been up and down it many times on both 4 wheels and 2 👌🏻

[@Billywoo12]

I’ve watched the auto express, evo, etc reviews of this car…. This is the best review by far. 💥

[@sidrens1047]

Great video as always!!! Not sure your mic. was picking up the Ferrari engine Sam, as it sounded pretty quiet. Until you got into your Ferrari!

[@kevletmein]

Another great video. Best and easiest car videos to watch out of all the big boy KZbinrs. Combined with the podcasts, you’ve got it down to a T. Keep them coming please.

[@DennisBerkhout1]

I love the 296. Especially the GTS. Such an elegant design and that sound is beautiful. I would stick a new exhaust system on it though, just to unlock the full potential of that engine sound.

[@Maurice_Moss]

Ferrari have really nailed the 296, sounds epic for a turbo v6. And looks beautiful too, they've got their mojo back with the styling, the f8 looked a bit of a mess imo.

[@lukebarkworth9080]

Can we get a counter of how many times Sam slapped his leg in this video 😂

[@royd72]

To many to count 😂

[@cliftonjackson441]

Looks amazing in that blue

[@Nathan_Adams]

From this and a few other videos, I get a real R35 gtr vibe from the exhaust... Not sure if that is good or bad. Need to hear one in person

[@pasqualecuda5165]

The way you feel in the car would be exactly the way I'd feel.god bless from Australia 🇦🇺

[@TheMrFishnDucks]

Really nice blue colour.

[@robertdouglas5926]

That is my favourite video in a while, excellent Sam. I particularly enjoyed the Sam faff after coffee! I’m with you on the styling, but I loved the blue without the nose paint. I think that’s it, the stripe

[@JP516]

Such an elegant car mate n the blue 😃! luv it !

[@BIGGELATO]

It doesnt sound like a V6, sounds like their V8TT, which is a good thing.

[@dylanphillips4395]

another fabulous video Sam .you really are the master of these well done 🏆

[@lama6736]

It’s insane how much better your videos are over most all if not all car KZbinrs. I mean watching a shmee video looks like it has a $5 budget and yours looks like Netflix gave a bunch of money to make films. Well done!

[@sh-hg4eg]

Schmee's videos are bloody awful. Lol.

[@sebbach3747]

Schmee is a tool

[@rjnation5042]

Way more interested in this than the SF90, some angles on the SF look a bit weird, this looks like a complete package, Rj in Oz

[@sh-hg4eg]

I have to agree. The SF90 looked too busy, imo.

[@benpenagonzales6014]

I think I'd still go for a Roma. Over a GTB at least. You didn't mention any scuttle shake at all? I hear even the F8 has a bit. I forget the chassis construction of this

[@henrikseverinsen4167]

The Ferrari is amazing, BUT...its even more nice to see you rocking the CasiOak (thumbs up).

[@richardkennett4086]

Without a doubt the best Ferrari for years! Love the 296GTS in that blue! That and a 288GTO in Rosso Corsa would be my perfect Ferrari garage!

[@vincentkr3w]

Thanks a lot. I now feel like I need a 296 GTS in my life myself...

[@ChrisDorgan]

love the rear end and rear three quarter view of the 296 but can't get on with the front lights and the fact the bonnet line doesn't match up with them haha!

[@328gts1987]

Greata video Sam (as usual). Looking to the (main) subject: 296GTS (I will be honest, didn't drive it yet) it looks clinical during driving as shown in 4min 20sec. The gear changes are smooth (maybe to smooth?!) and the (exhaust)sound is missing. We are so lucky (you in the 360) to own the young-timers with single clutch (pownding into next gear) and crackles in the exhaust (when engine is on temps)! Again, video is great (so job well done) however the main star of the video is not a block-buster as in the past... Almost McLaren like?! (sorry for swearing on your channel) and maybe the future of all brands.... Still I am looking forward to the first drive of 296GTS but surely will not trade in the F430 on it (as you will not do the 360) correct?

[@Mexxx65]

Sam how do you find in right side road countries, hopping in and out of LHD cars and back into your RHD car......driving on the right side of the road?

[@scalibur56]

this video felt like a film, great editing and vibe to the whole thing!

[@jongib6096]

Isnt that the 2.9 TT V6 quadrifoglio engine 😜

[@AngelInTheDesert]

So where does this car sit in the lineup? It’s a tame SF90? Is it a faster F8? Or is this on the more pedestrian (if such a thing exists) Roma side of the shop?

[@th3b0untyhunter]

Great video - good camera work, very professional etc etc Almost everything you do without Tony is excellent tbh But do you think commencing a 10hr drive (and that's a rather optimistic suggestion anyways) plus several stops for fuel, food and toilet at 4.30pm after having started your day well before 8am is safe ? There are good reasons professional drivers are time limited in what they're allowed to do.

[@davecrewe9074]

Sam. Hope you went back and raked the tyre tracks on that viewpoint ...like a good golfer should 😁

[@ChrisDorgan]

[@2Bunphettered788]
