It's an extremely unattractive car, regardless of its price.

That center stack gives me the creeps. It looks like a transformer with a clown nose…..

Whole thing really is quite ugly. 🤷
The massive amount of black plastics cheapens the look & is really sad on a car this expensive.

That's painted trim, not black plastic actually.

Painted plastic... or adonized aluminum?

Which do you get for your 400 grand?

This is not good, at all.
Now this is a good effort...

I think the Ferrari is pretty sweet looking, but this Hummer is awesome! I'd honestly have to stop and think which one I'd want if offered to be given one of the two for free. And that's pretty amazing being that you can buy about four Hummers for the price of one of these Ferrari's! Though I guess that's the answer - pick the Ferrari, sell it and buy the Hummer and pocket nearly $300k!

Years from now, once we're all "used to" that big wheel well look, automakers will stop with the moldings and just leave huge gaps between the tires and fenders. Just like we all wanted!

Anyone remember when auto critics used to universally criticize Pontiac for having plastic moulding along the rocker and for the wheel opening moldings?

I agree.

I’ve always thought the black plastic molding for the wheel wells, rockers, front grilles and rear trim looked cheap and like a low-end model. Virtually every small SUV and CUV has it now - with many large SUV’s converting to the cheap-looking trim.

Black trim used to denote the cheaper models. Now, manufacturers charge extra and for the trim and call it a special marketing name.

In ten years, we’ll be back to the bright trim.

I recall it moreso being about the side cladding, which mercedes 'innovated' to the industry... but no one had an issue with it on mercedes's (and there was a ton of it there).

My vintage cars have thin stainless around the wheelwells; far more expensive (and far better looking) trim than what you get on a $400 grand ferrari.
But you (the ferrari buyer) will take it and like it.

Nobody is putting unpainted plastic around the wheel openings and rockers to the extent that Pontiac did with the Aztec.

Exactly. Someone thought Ferrari would. I’d go as far as to say it’s carbon fiber.
This ain’t GM, Cadillac and Mary. Laugh or joke all you want. This is a true Ferrari. Just todays form. They didn’t take a FWD Chevy Equinox and call it Cadillac SRX/XT5.

Stop hating on this vehicle. Cayenne got it done and so did the Urus. PROPERLY.

Sure. A cult truck. Like the Cyber thing. GM needs to step its electric game up. We the people need a $30 or $40k electric vehicle (suv) not a $100K one.

^ Oh no, just as the folk that "really want to see GM do better", anything that much higher up the price chain deserves AT LEAST as much criticism for meaningless details... such as "tons of black trim around the wheelwells, making the tires look too small". It's only fair.

True. I think they both are sweet, but for different intents and purposes basically.

Big fan of Ferrari, but not feeling this thing.

GM makes that.
With the tax credit the Bolt EUV starts a lot closer to $20K than $30K.

I don't have an issue with Ferrari making an SUV, though i don't find it all that good looking and the price is laughable imo for what your getting.

What part about the price is out of whack? It’s not like the other Ferraris with that engine are cheap.

I rather pay 400K for this than 250K for a VW Urus
