I have never seen the FF but would love to. It's an interesting design; not sure if it's for me. In June I plan to vacation in Italy. We (wife and I) will drive through La Terra dei Motori, Emilia Romagna; specifically to Maranello, Modena, and Sant'Agata Bolognese (Ferrari, Maserati, and Lamborghini). I would love to test drive a Ferrari!

I visited Ferrari and Lamborghini some years ago and I also included the Imola race circut (I watch F1). I would recommend the Ferrari factory and track tour. It is a bus tour around the factory area + Fiorano race circuit. Interesting. Saw a camouflage LaFerrari inside the factory area back then + numerous FXXs at Fiorano. I think you have to be a Ferrari owner to visit the factory and see the production line. Pushstart and others offer affordable test drives (488 GTB, F12berlinetta, Huracán and so on).
I saw an FF in a parking lot, I found it to be hideous. It's awd too, they showed it flying around a frozen lake when it was introduced. A 4 seat, awd Ferrari

Why not? The GTC4 Lusso is now avaliable with a turbo V8 and RWD. Still, a proper Ferrari should have V12 in my opinion.
A 2nd-gen Toyota Supra, very clean and very crisp. (Like this, Web image)
And very fast. I was on the freeway doing 65MPH in the right lane and he almost blew my doors off as he passed. Musta been doing about 100.
Very cool.

Saw a DeLorean DMC-12 on the other side of the highway this morning. If I didn't have work, I would have honestly turned around just to have the opportunity to take a picture. They only made roughly 10,000 of them so they're extremely rare.
Yesterday was a bright and sunny day here. We have a break from the heavy rains and flooding. My wife and I said hello to a guy driving his nice white 1988 Porsche 911 Targa with the whale tail on Treasure Island in San Francisco. He's owned it about 3 years. It was very nice and clean.
A half hour later we saw another Porsche 991 with the duck tail driving on the freeway - nice.
We also saw two (two!) JGC CRDs (that's my shorthand for the Diesel Grand Cherokee: Jeep Grand Cherokee, Common-Rail Diesel). I am surprised I do not see more out there, and yes I am very biased. I own one and love it - essentially you get V-8 gas performance with better than V-6 gas fuel economy and range. I go weeks and months without seeing another JGC CRD on the road. America is averse to Diesel, for many reasons. When I pull up to people they are often surprised to hear the engine. They greet me with, "This is a Diesel??!!" The 911 Targa guy said that too.
There were other cars too, like a nice 3rd-gen Chevy Nova, vintage late-1960s or early 1970s. Yesterday was a target-rich environment day.
