Ignore the pop-ups/lack there of. Focus on the part where the design team decided that one stupid old hag who got randomly selected to say 3 words on a tv station in bum fuck middle America over people who actually buy/dream about these cars.

Imagine Ferrari hearing on the radio that some guy in Afghanistan thought that a "v12 is just to old" and decided to stop making anything with a V12 and go to plain old v8's, all because of that one douchebag who never cared for them anyways.

Then we can look forward to the GTR V-Specs official time. Then, we can wait for the GTR Evo.

Good times.

Wow I love this thread, so many die hard fans of both cars. Honestly why can't you like both, if you want to hate on cars hate on shitty cars not excellent cars. Both cars are amazing, I'd have either one in heartbeat.

That is pretty nice. I wondered why it was so silent around the ZR1 in the last weeks....but still, I am waiting for a magazine like SportAuto to test both with the same driver. In the end, Michael Schumacher is an engineer for Ferrari too and has a little bit better driving skills than your average engineer
