The BEST Ferrari you can buy!

.............................................................

Many thanks @futureclassiquecars for lending us their Ferrari. Check them out on Instagram.

This is the all-new Ferrari 296 GTB - a plug-in hybrid supercar with a 3.0-litre V6 that combines with a 165hp electric motor to make 830hp and 740Nm of torque.

It’ll have no problem shooting you to over 205mph, and doing so by getting you to 60mph in just 2.9 seconds! But all that power doesn’t come cheap, with prices starting at around £240,000 - and that's before you start checking the options list!

But it's not just about the numbers; it's long, low, wide and purposeful and beautiful. See why Mat thinks this is the best Ferrari you can buy today!

But what do you think - if you were in the market for a supercar, would you be willing to consider the 296 GTB? Let us know in the comments!

Do you agree with my verdict on the beautiful Ferrari 296 GTB?

[ryzmodz]

The touchscreens and touch buttons are just too much in most cars these days.

[EasyRider]

The fact it can’t hold large water bottles was a deal breaker for me unfortunately

[HunterBroger]

I got my Ferrari 296 for $225k from Mccfrx. Awesome car, awesome dealer!

[behindthebuild]

Imagine if car manufacturers just listened to reviewers like Matt and made car features we actually want like physical buttons….

[JustNotIt]

I was about to buy this, but then I saw the SF90, honestly I fell in love. Anyways I was stuck on wether to get a SF90 or the 488 Pista, OR the Lamborghini Aventador SVJ, I thought of splurging more money to get a Koenigsegg Regera. In the end I decided to get a 2023 Toyota Corolla.

[marcamigable]

That's probably one of the best sounding V6 engines I've ever heard.

I will ALWAYS prefer buttons and switches to touch pads. Volume and AC controls should always be dials and switches. I like the gated panel for D R P and... but why not go that extra bit further and actually make it so you can slide the switches up and down.
VERY nice design!!

[derekm]

For $320K, the unresponsive touchscreens are unacceptable. That’s a huge turnoff.

[Hahshshsjsjdunsmsisshh]

Ferrari engineer’s skipped 2 lines of codes as they thought every people would stop the ignition after the warning but not every people is Matt Watson 😂

[ghostxfairy]

Those unresoposive touch controls would drive me insane if I owned one of these.

[abhirampitla]

This is the most Ferrari looking Ferrari in a while, reminds us of the good old days

[blaster]

I still think its ancestor the 458 is the most pretty modern Ferrari they've made.

[perfectdiversion]

That has to be the nicest sounding v6 ever

[annonymously]

Nürburgring lap time of 6, 58, 70- just half a second behind a gt2rs!!! This is a car with no wings

[chvrlesleclvrc]

*revs it*
"i think i just came."
same bro same

[mholmes]

I didn't think it was possible for a V6 to sound this good. Wow.

[Presto_]

[ItsAllImagination]

Really interesting to watch this difference in breaking distance at different speeds. This would deserve a video on its own and would be nice to go a little more deep down in to this issue :)

[josephmarsh]

That twin turbo V6 is super brilliant sounding! You dont need a V12 or V8 after all! You just need a car that sounds good! Well done Ferrari!
