In case anyone is wondering those little C wings are used in flow control. I cant say for sure without seeing CFD on the car, but theyre too small to act as wings.
I would imagine that theyre primary purpose is to better channel flow, and reduce turbulence, over the cars rear adjustable aerodynamic devices. Basically, increasing downforce and all that indirectly. |

Totally pointless car. First very very very few are able to drive it to its full potential and then even many many many less among those are able to afford it. So it means this car is for the 0.00000000000001% of this world. It is more about image and easy profit than anything else. No respect for that, but I understand the engineer's dream.

Judging purely on your ideology...wouldn't anyone who could afford such a toy be a criminal? After all, it would be criminal to accumulate such wealth, since the only way to do so is at the expense of the underclass. Right?

Its for flow control and high speed stability.
From what I understand the standard car's active rear spoiler/wing is still in place on the FxxK. |

Well, not really.
I wasn't able to find production unit estimates in the 30 seconds I devoted to looking into it, but considering the LaFerrari run was only 499 units, it's safe to say there will be <50 FXX Ks produced. So, given current world population estimates at 7.27866 billion, that means this car is only for 0.00000000007% of the population. You can rest assured they will all be sold...likely to "central banking class" criminals. By my estimates, 6.9*10^-9 people. |

Possible. I guess 7.5 billion people and I may have missed the zeros. This is why scientific notation was invented people!

Heres another thing. A car like this from Ferrari doesn't mean YOU can buy it. It means you are SELECTED by Ferrari to own it. Just go back to the Enzo. Ferrari didn't care if you were the richest person in the world, a top Sheik from the Middle East or Michael Schumacher. You tell them you want to buy this car and then Ferrari determines who gets to own it. And then on top of that, you have to be a Ferrari owner already for a certain amount of time.
I'm sure I know where this is going to be priced too. The thing that always gets me is when they reference a F1 car. This has F1 tech, F1 this, F1 that and it's going to lay down a time along side a F1 car! Liars, there is nothing like a F1 car. If there is ever a street going or fully enclosed car that puts down numbers like an F1 car, I will be speechless. |

For what it's worth, one of those you're calling a criminal is my cousin, and he's far from a criminal. He's the #11 599XX EVO and probably knows more about cars than 99.5% of people on this message board lol. As for the FXX K, looks great! My favorite of the Corsa Clienti cars yet
