2023 Ferrari 296 GTB Review // Guilty Of ONE Crime
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
The 2023 Ferrari 296 GTB ($444,287 USD as spec’d) is a hybrid mid-engined V6, capable of an astonishing 818.6 horsepower and has an electric-only range of up to 15 miles (25 km). This may not be Ferrari’s first foray into hybrid power, but it is the first road-going Ferrari to sport a V6. The 296 GTB aims to be both playful and practical, but does the hybrid V6 live up to the Ferrari name? And to its price? Thomas and James spend some time to find out! We hope you enjoy the episode. SUBSCRIBE!

Your reviews of Ferraris are the reason why I trust you more than literally any other journalist. You’re able to fully admit this it’s practically a perfect sports/super car, but aren’t die hard apologists who are willing to pass off the interior UI as merely quirky or “difficult to get used to.” Can’t wait to see you drive the Artura - sounds like it’s less exciting of a car but maybe is actually liveable (assuming it works properly)??

Have you seen Car Trek? It’s relatively new but they are really good. It’s Freddy Tavarish, Ed Bolian, and Tyler Hoover.
What's absurd is that manufacturers are ditching hard buttons right as cars are getting incredibly quick and responsive. When you're traveling so quickly and don't have much time to use the use the controls, that's exactly when you want hard buttons you can use by feel. McLaren still understands this, and that is one of their advantages over Ferrari. I remember someone at Audi being asked why the e-tron GT has more physical buttons compared to other Audis and they said because the e-tron GT is so quick and physical buttons are easier to use in a very quick car. Capacitive touch buttons are ok to use when stationary but inappropriate when moving.

I had this beauty for 10 minutes to drive as a gift for my birthday, last week... Never have driven a sportcar before... 4 laps on Euroring... it was an unforgettful experience, the car was fast but easy to drive, comfortable, smooth, sleek, . arriving at the long final straight part , the instructor insisted on: "Pedal to the metal !" :) So I let loose the 830 HP :)) Had big fun !

Nobody cares about infontainment on a ferrari. Nobody drives ferraris long enough to let themselves get bothered by that. Ferrari probably doesnt give a rats ass they chose to focus their critics on the ui. They know they sell their cars for their styling, exclusivity, sound and handling.
So Thomas is a watch guy, iv been waiting for this!!! Iv seen the speedy a bunch and a random diver a couple times I really thought it was a glycine or a brightling, love the vintage watches tho👌🏼almost as much as cars
My word this dude actually makes crazy realistic car sounds. Amazing episode
i love how it sounds like an 812 but a bit muted. Ferrari do really have exhaust notes nailed. The sounds they produce just bring a chill down the spine.
Every time I think, “There’s no way they can get better than this right?”, you guys somehow find another way to improve the quality of your videos. It’s astounding really.
Your videos are soooo worth the wait. Best car reviewers ever!
thank you both for another *well done* and, most importantly, *_honest_* review! I gotta say, it was really refreshing hearing someone *_finally_* call out the Ferrari's interior (namely the controls) for what it is. I fully understand and recognize how good the rest of the car is, however, I'm sick of every Automotive journalist turning a blind eye or giving it a pass when it is genuinely *so bad!* Yet, they will absolutely _roast_ cars like the Corvette, in previous generations due to the interiors "feeling cheap" and in the c8 because they "just don't like" the center button stack. I'm not saying they are necessarily wrong about either point, but it just seems silly to me to hear complaints about an inexpensive sports car having an inexpensive interior and the people who own c8's that I've heard from all say the center stack becomes extremely simple and is quite intuitive pretty quickly. in contrast to the prancing horse here that can cost 5...6+ times as much and is almost impossible to operate without taking your eyes off the road.
And this channel is guilty of NONE. Probably one of the only channels where you are ALWAYS guaranteed top tier entertainment, insight, information, production, sound… I’m glad you’re getting more recognition because no one does it like y’all.

The exterior design from the passenger compartment back is taken from the 1965 250LM. If this resembles a 2005 Ford GT, that would be due to Ford copying the Ferrari 250LM which won the 1965 24 Hours of Le Mans. And then of course, the Ford GT40 took 1966-1969 at Le Mans.
Dude, I was thinking the joke was there was a recorded speaker of the car sounds and it was funny because James was claiming he was doing it. I’m like “haha yeah.. no way could that be mimicked.” Then the joke is it just wasn’t James, but it WAS someone. 🤯🤯. That dude is incredible.
