Yes, folks, we are once again talking about the Ferrari FF, which is the car everyone loves to hate. Ferrari has made quite a few mistakes in its past, but with the California T, they proved they are willing to go back and fix them.
We're sure there's a mid-life facelift for the FF that's coming within the next year or so. We are not sure, however, that it will look like this. You're looking at the Ferrari FX, obviously a creation of graphics manipulator Theophilus Chin.

He says that once the rendering goes viral, he expects to be "murdered by Italian mobsters." What is he talking about? The fellow could be referring to another version of the FF that was put together by Giugiaro. It looked more like a jacked up wagon, compared to the FF, which is a shooting brake.

This concept was built in the late 2000s, and yet nobody has seen it until earlier this week. It sat in the private collection of a wealthy individual who was probably under strict gag orders. What could Ferrari possibly do to the man? For starters, they could stop him for ever buying another Ferrari. In some cases, these rare concepts are not sold but given on a lifetime lease. So there could have been a clause where if he revealed the car, they would take it away.

Will Ferrari give a more crossover-like appearance to the FF when the facelift arrives? Probably not. We've heard that they want to offer two kind of engine, a V12 and an entry-level turbo model. Patent images for a regular coupe version of the FF exist. But so far nobody has seen one go down the road anywhere in Italy.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
