“I see the problem, someone stole the engine!” |
^^^ :lolg:

More appropriate would be "camouflaged C8 mule had a rather embarrassing public breakdown at a gas station in the Detroit area recently." :(
|
looking at the side engine air scoop from this angle, there are A LOT OF CURVES/Creases flowing to the rear from that point. Not bad necessarily but I thought it would be smoothly integrated (less creases).

No joke, and no exaggeration: I've seen more production Ferrari's on flatbeds this year in person, than I've seen even photos of the ME Corvette being towed. :thumbs: |
The more we see the more we know that side scoop is terribly fake.

The side intake is much further back than what we are allowed to see. |

'meh, I wouldn't call it 'embarrassing' at all... mules break down all the time... in fact, if they aren't breaking down, they probably aren't stressing the cars enough during testing... :D

They arent fake, they just come forward much farther than the do in real life. There is a small faint triangle shape that begins on the door, and the door handle is under it, it is very thin and sharp at the door, so it will not actually hit the car next to it, the normal center round part of the outer door edge will hit first in most cases.

thats because most high end stores send flatbeds to pick up high end cars for oil changes etc as part of the service to earn the customer's business vs them going to the other high end store.

That's pretty cruddy Ferrari service. My wife just bought an Alfa Romeo Giulia, and the dealership we purchased from in Annapolis, MD will bring an Alfa or Maserati loaner to our house, take our car for service, and bring it back detailed.

Yep, and its largely stuff you'd never think of (and stuff totally unrelated to your system that you've got zero clue how to fix). Security systems thinking the car is being stolen and locking out the systems are probably our number one issue.

Well, as long as we’re stuck here, let’s get our golf clubs out and play a quick couple holes next door while we await the company tow truck.

Yeah, no... while I get your point, I mean being picked up from the road... perhaps minor issues, but break-downs are what I am referring to. Driving around the Galleria area of Houston on a daily basis, you will see at least one Ferrari broken down being picked up, every few months...its actually become a joke amongst my co-workers (maybe a Houston-ism, but again, no joke or exaggeration at all).

I'm wondering if the person is trying to tinker with the battery and/or connectors assuming it is near the front of the car
