"The Ferrari FF is the first four-wheel drive Ferrari, and the company's most practical car by far."
To celebrate CarBuyer's two years on KZread, I thought I'd have a break from the superminis and give you a review of something really exciting. Hope you enjoy watching the review as much as I did filming it - Mat ;-)

I like this car because it's understated, practical, and it's a Ferrari

This car is not ugly. It's one of my dream cars. It looks unique, and it's the most luxurious Ferrari I've ever been in. The V12 engine also packs quite a punch.

The quitter 😂
they succeeded in making an every day car maintaining the good looks and performance and most important identity, good job Ferrari, a car you can treat as sport car and a family car, not an easy thing to engineer.
This car is ugly? Compared to what? It looks better than your typical hatch and looks a lot better than most cars on the road. I'll admit, the frog of the car is too long but that's what you get for having a V12 engine. Y'all need to understand the point of a shooting brake. It isn't "ugly" it's just not sexy. It's better looking than a sedan or hatchback but still carries the sleek look of a coupe while being practical. It's handsome.

💯 Im glad he left. Imagine getting this opportunity only to trash talk and do a 'Practicality test' on it. There were some humor touches but his directing messed it up. Personally I think Aston Martins front grilles are ugly and overrated. They look like a miserable Galapagos lizard yawning. The FF got it spot on with the cool grimace!

Really wasn't sure about this car when it first came out, but I love it now, shape's grown on me and that interior is delicious!!... pity it's about £200k over budget but hey, we can dream can't we! :)
Love Mat Watson's reviews. Informative, quirky and always funny. Keep up the Stirling Work Old Chap! :)
You‘ve come a long way my friend
Most of you who watch this channel must have already realized that Carbuyer isn't a supercar reviewing channel, not like drive, or EvoTv etc. So for them to get a a highly exclusive car like the FF, and even shoot with it in public, it must have taken a ton of hardwork. So cheers Mat, for steping up your game and always keeping us always informed and entertained. I personally won't come across most of these cars, but now, I might as well have. On behalf of all the viewers I thank you Mat :)
I love the Ferrari FF, prefer it over the GTC4 Lusso by far.

Nah just a Mazda3 2005. And yes I take it somewhat personal because Ferrari, to me, has always been about style and performance. But this is performance with the style all messed up. It kinda fails like a Buggati when it comes to body work, meaning they don't look sexy

Jeric Tamayo One of the things Ferrari does best is variation of their basic themes. All their cars have in common the flare, the engine, the sound, the passion. But the execution varies remarkably from model to model. The result is that each model has its appeal to one type of customer or use. This is in contrast to other makers whose model evolution is predictable and whose differences are quantitative not qualitative. This is my opinion is a fantastic car, truly phenomenal.

The big sports cars brands like Ferrari and Lamborghini used to have more purist and uncompromising principles. You don't buy just a car but an identity, you'd say "I drive a Lambo" and people would instantly know that it's a 2 seats car and that you're not planning to have kids anytime soon. Since there's now more competition in this market I guess they felt the need to diversify...
@walimuhammad3894
9 жыл бұрын
Saga Gemini the need to diversify is based on revenue not strictly competition... SUV's typically have larger margins for automakers. At the end of the day it's about selling more vehicles. The Cayenne is Porsche best seller since it was released.
Wonderful, funny, honest! What can I say Mat.. Fantastic! One of the COOLEST reviews EVA!!
Best review of the FF ever. Keep the good work, Matt. Next time please take another very practical italian beauty, the Maserati Quattroporte. And, by the way... what happened with the twins!!!????
Did you just carry a 2 dollars rubbish wooden plate in a Ferrari? Jokes aside, great reviews as always.
this car actually gets better looking the longer you look at it. well imo anyway
Excellent review on an excellent car, I am taking delivery of mine in a couple of days
I think it looks just perfect, especially the paint is really gorgeous - I saw one on a bouleward here in Cracow Poland some months ago, in the middle of the night, accellerating towards me and away..... freaking amazing sound, THIS is one of the few cars I have ever heard, that sounds better then an Aston Martin DB9 - and that is a high praise to give a good sounding car indeed!

Because your friend who wanted to show up all his colleagues who drive 7-series or S-class or A8 bought a Bentley, and you don't want to do the same. The rich are not like us. (Or are they? I think buyers in all car classes look for something different - different from what they had last, different from their friends or rivals, different from what they see every day.)

An absolutely disgusting vehicle, especially for such a known brand. Basically the same opinion I had when Porsche made their station wagon lately, its horrible in design, besides the front, which is pure Ferrari, but the interior is so simple, even for a sports car, and red accents wont help make this a car even close to worth it, If I won this car itd be for sale immediately for any other model

Great review!
I'm a huge fan of the panamera, and I like this a lot. The Panamera is a little bit more practical and cheaper but this thing is gorgeous.
@AB-80X
5 жыл бұрын
You have to consider the fact that the Panamera will never be able to do what this does. Yes it's a bit more practical, and yes the suspension in the Panamera is more comfortable. But when you hit that starter button, hit your Capristo remote, and feel the ease, lightness and directivity of this car, as you eat up the twisties along your journey, it simply does not matter. A Panamera will get you to your destination swiftly, and this will have you home an hour late because you chose the long route, and maybe.turned left a few times where you were supposed to have turned right. Nothing on the market that seats 4 people in comfort does this - nothing comes remotely close.
Looking to buy ff just watching all the videos and reading coments to get to know more about this car sounds good at the moment to buy it thanks for video.
Very good review!!!
Car looks brilliant. I want one. Good review as per usual. Funny too.
wonderful review
It's more awesome to have him review these cars on here instead on Autoexpress, because HALF (or more) of the show belongs to him!
the ferrari is amazing as ever :D so is mat :D love ur reviews man :D :D
Greate review and a fabulous car! 10/10
I love you!!Carbuyer!!
FF is an intelligently built car. It may not look pretty but enjoying the experience of a ferrari with 4 people sitting is spectacular engineering. Everybody loves to head out on a weekend with friends and nobody would mind heading out in a ferrari. Good ground clearance, technology and power. A complete sports car.
thank you for the review!!!!
Great review, thinking of buying my son something practical all year round.
I can't help it, but this car remind me so much of the Honda Accord Aero Deck from the 80s :')
I bought this car last year and it is brilliant very comfortable and it runs smoothly
It's kinda important to note that AWD shuts down completely above 4th gear, so if you're in snow stay below 5th... Great car but £275k is far too much even for a Ferrari. Well done Matthew :-)
The sound of that car was pretty amazing !
i knew you guys filmed near where i live haha! from aylesbury to wycombe
absolutely fantastic!
I like your review!
Amazing review for an amazing car
My dad ordered this Ferrari FF seeing this review yay! It's going to be a big jump up from his Porsche Cayman though! It going to look good in our driveway alright!
i am in love with this car
I personally think this is one of the best looking cars I've ever seen. I agree, it doesn't really look like a super car. But I kind of like that for this car. I know it might seem blasphemous because this is a Ferrari), but I think that's one of the prettiest shapes I've ever seen! Even though it's a Ferrari, aesthetics are still subjective:)
Thanks, nice review.
cool review!
This is very similar to top gear now, except is more focused in town, good review, and matt fell in love =D
Just beautiful!!!!
very good review
Gonnna order one now!
The exterior kinda looks like the old Z3 coupe. I really like how the " engine start " button is on the wheel.
I want one right now! It's such a good car!!
O apresentador, foi do inicio ao fim, muito simpatico, técnico, em suas explicações. Sobre a FERRARI. Andou, com o carro FERRARI, e deu um SHOW.
CONGRATULATIONS CARBUYER ON YOUR TWO YEAR ANNIVERSARY!!!!!!!!!!!!! I THINK MATT WOULD NOTICE THIS IF IT HAD 1000 LIKES!LET'S DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!
So did you guys fight over the keys for this one? :D Great review!
hello matt! i know that you guys like to review all types of cars and cars for all type of wallets so i was wondering, will you guys ever show some dodge viper action ? :P
Ill take that as a compliment. Cheers mate!
I wrote to Ferrari complaining about the twins issue. Happy to see that they finally listened.
