Believe me, I'd love that to be true! :cry:

Any chance these mules are testing some things for the upcoming CS? I mean, I know we've seen the official CS mule but testing individual bits?

If you're so smart, and smarter than anyone else here ( and all the internet ), at least tell us what is that test mule going to be...

i'm guessing a drivetrain developement mule, probably honing theyre gearbox or maybe their next engine for their next supercar. could be A LOT of things, but NOT a dino.

Well for starters, Ferrari had a press release only two months ago that said they would look into developing a four wheel drive system. They are, of course, working on a dsg transmission and new things are always in the works.

Im just saying if your waiting to prove me wrong and see Ferrari unveil a cheaper dino style model, I hope you're sitting comfortably because it wont happen.

While the F430 is about 160.000 euros worth, the Dino will be starting at approximately 100-110.000 euros.

What's that in American dollars?

100,000.00 EUR = 127,534.40 USD

110,000.00 EUR = 140,283.97 USD

Top brass already said they won't make a Dino. They do not want to dilute the brand. Instead they want to focus on getting cars to people faster. Right now the both 599GTB and the F430 have close to a 2 year wait.

Who knows. . . maybe they will change their minds?
