The long awaited replacement for Ferrari's Scagletti 612 flagship has finally been revealed. The newest Cavallino Rampante is the Ferrari Four, or FF, which stand for four seater and also four-wheel drive, a first for Ferrari. (I realize this article is starting to read like a tongue-twister.) The FF was penned by Pinninfarina and looks to be an extension of the styling we've seen with the 599 and 612 with a little bit of 458 Italia thrown in the mix. As rumored, this car features a 'shooting-brake' style body, sporting an elongated nose, a smaller estate-type cabin and swooping roof that flows over and down to an abbreviated rear-end. It's almost like the world's coolest hatchback...
The headlamps are inspired by the 458 and feature LEDs that sweep up and back, wrapping around the sides of the hood. Ferrari's signature round tail-lamps are in full effect in back with a nice set of twin-exhausts jutting out from each side and a splitter-diffuser put in place to handle airflow duties around the blunt rear end. The typical Ferrari 'smiley face' is replaced with a 'sinister grin' which befits this hulking brute. The fact that it sort of looks like a BMW Z4 on steroids somehow floats the notion of convertible out there, but not a chance. The bottom line is that the Ferrari FF is a stellar flagship model and will be welcomed with open arms.
