Lovely video. Excellent Ferris Bueller quote. Now you just have to jack it up and spin the wheels in reverse to negate all of the mileage you've put on. 😀

Fantastic car! It’s a great all-rounder; a supercar, a GT cruiser, a 2 door hatchback shopping car and a car to pick the kids up from school in. To me the perfect, usable Ferrari. All those options I’d include except here in Australia, the £11,000 glass roof would be unnecessary and unwanted. Very nice review. Thanks for sharing.
My favorite ”Money no object" Ferrari, the F50. Rarer than an F40, more comfortable, detachable roof, and 12 formula 1, flat plane, cylinders. My favorite realistic, daily driver, Ferrari, GTC4 Liesl... Amazing vehicle. The shooting break design is absolutely gorgeous. Powerful, yet balanced engine, with a gorgeous, and functional, interior. Just an amazing overall package from Ferrari. They put so many featured in this car, it's easily one if the best Ferrari's ever built...
That engine note is astounding. Wow.
Carbon fibre trades at $15 per pound on Chicago mercantile exchange! High end car makers can retail it to suckers at between five and ten grand per pound. The fact you have to “spec up” a new car with a base price of over £200,000 must mean they are selling you short as a price gouging exercise. There is one born every minute.
Looks more like a modern day scimitar GTE ,than a Ferrari

I love the interior design from the seats back. I have no idea what they were thinking with the dash/steering wheels. All of the steering wheels/dashboards since the 355 look like arcade racers from the early 90s.
456 wins hand down on looks for me. The Gtc4 Lusso is a cracking car - but boy do they currently drop value like a stone - you can pick up a 12 month old highly optioned example now with tiny miles for the best part of 100k less than if you bought one brand new, which makes them wonderfully good value on the used market if you've got a couple of bob in your pocket and use the money you've saved to buy a tidy 456 to sit alongside it! 😃

I'm also a big fan of the 456, and it would be my second choice behind the f355 ... which I'd buy just for the sound. Problem with the 456 is reliability ...as it doesn't seem to have any!
Looks a lot more modern. Modern interior. Very useable and driveable

I'm not really a fan of modern sportscars but I really appreciate the Lusso. Maybe I'll get one as a daily... in 25 years or so. Also, the styling might not be everyone's cup of tea but personally I love the Breadvanesque, shooting brake style (Z3M Coupe, Scimitar GTE... or 250 GT SWB 'Breadvan'?)!
The car is great but what is even more amazing are you daughters. They are adorable. I love your videos and can't wait for more of them. Cheers
The Lusso is amazing!!
30 Ferrari's wow Scott. You are living my dream. Would still really like to hear the story on how you know so much about thes cars. Just a hobby for you or do you have industry experience. This was a great comparison and that Lusso is just on another level.
2 kids and a Ferrari, you have won the lottery
No point in getting any of that exterior carbon fiber panelling, weighs more than the plastic and doesn't confer any advantage strength wise.

and what have we learnend from this video: The 456GT Venice has less legroom than the lusso. i always thougt that the big station wagon from ferrari is bigger than the lusso. Well i was wrong. In my opinion the GTC 4 Lusso is the best allroundcar that you can buy as long as you do not need a van. But this interiör.. why? my eyes are bleeding... Oh thank god it is just the color of the seats... ah my eyes.
Maybe an FF would be a nice place in the middle for you, great video!
I love the looks, the bread van was a strange Ferrari but somehow it grew on me just like this shooting brake style has since the FF ...WANT !!!

Ya another fine presentation. If you can rotate the tire's with just a lug wrench. It probly could be an argument that it's a daily driver. Don't think I'd go to the wrecking yard with it though. ha ha still love that 456 especially if they fluxed the alloy the heads are cast from

I was shocked at how much i liked the car
It is a beautiful car, especially from the rear in my opinion. But the Italian flag batch on the rear does look like it came from some sales stand on a motorway gas station. And the exhaust tips would become black of their own just fine from driving and not cleaning them.
Great review as always Scott. Indeed Ferrari has come a long way since the 456, but I still like the ‘grandfather’ car 😁. Is the V12 nowadays not a ‘derivate’ from the V12 from the 456?
Great review I would certainly have one of these, maybe after a year of depreciation ?

That might be their most complex ever road car. You’re going to have your hands full. How in the world they sync the front axle gearbox with the rear drive is something I’d love to hear about. I don’t know of another all wheel drive car using so complex a layout. The engine view belongs in the Louvre.

The front gearbox is engaged only for the first couple or 3 trans gears. Once a certain higher speed is reached the front gearbox disengages
The Lusso will be a quirky collectors car in the future. It’s stunning and has that honeysuckle V12. Great vid

That spec on the interior is fantastic. Daytona seats. Full leather to the dash and headliner. Very hard to find one with Daytona seats!! Is that car for sale>

You’ve inspired me to join the Ferrari family. A 2+2 but not quite the Lusso. I’m going back to your roots and starting off in a Mondial
So very cool watching all of you.
The 456 has still more class. Maybe the GTC4 will have it in a few years as well but the 456 is proven timelessly beautiful.
So glad Ferrari has kept up with the 1994 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo with rear wheel steering.
Great car dude
Good all round review and a great car. If funds allowed, myself and my boys would love it as a daily. Always makes me cringe a little when you reference your stradale, yes you put a lot of time and money in sourcing genuine parts and building it up. But the fact is it’s not a stradale, and that would be reflected in the resale. Good job with it though.
You know that Dr Hook song - ballad of lucy jordan? That goes "At the age of 37, She realised she'd never ride through Paris In a sports car, with the warm wind in her hair" Yeah well ... I think I know Lucy Jordan felt.
All you need to do now Scott is too sell everyone of your cars too get any where near too buy this car lol

You got it backwards. The 456GTA is the great granddad of the latest GTC4 Lusso.
Very nice Ferrari, but not my choice. I just can't get past the "Hatch" element to the Lusso. If I ordered one, I would order the absolute base model...it would most likely be the only one in the world and with money I'd save, buy a nice little cottage in the country to drive it to on the weekend. Thanks for the review.
Oh man. Can anyone agree that a base spec GTC4 Lusso must already be a kick ass beat-everything-in-sight monster? With absolutely zero need for upgrades. C’mon it must be so! 🤩 Save a 100 grand! Bingo. Just a like that.
Love that car as well, in my pricerange when its 10+ years old. But Im scared with modern ferraris if they get old. What if the computers brake down? LCD screens etc?
Speaking of the 308... how’s that coming?
Great review Mr Rossa very underated Ferrari but good for a depreciation point of view..
Paul Wallace (Supercars of London) drove that Lusso too. I think this time last year?
great one !
Pretty good ferrari doesn't take offence to you fixing Ferraris with dustbins lol
That's a cool car and love the colour
Excellente` hatchback 👍
perfection right there !
Buying that car is kinda like going to the hospital for a minor procedure in the U.S. Two aspirin- 48.00$.
the one Fezza I would buy if I won the lottery....

The pricing on new Ferrari's is madness but it doesn't bother me. Their cars don't appeal to me personally as they are impractical and are not long distance cruisers. I still like to watch the videos however. For me it's entertainment. Your ratarossa is amusing but I like to see you take a better conditioned example and refit that for the modern era. That would be really cool.

To me it looks not quite right. The 456 looks far better. In fact I think the 456 is simply beautiful.
Wow
Practical posh car. Lacks the class/style of the former 2+2 Ferrari's like 400/412 and even 456 imho. Bently Continental might be the better choise in this segment.
Looks amazingly good, in spite of all that carbon'fibre stuff. It just doesn´t do it for me. I see your younger daughter has been properly brought up to say that daddy giving it the beans is funny.
