Very beautifull car. If 296 GTB is a sub 7min un nurburgring may be it is a monster.

long story short
The Speciale is sharp and alert, with a manic, sometimes lurid edge that is a world away from the locked-down control of a GT3 RS. At the Nürburgring, I’d take the Porsche any day of the week, but on a wider, more forgiving track, there’s no denying the Ferrari’s sheer exuberance is deeply addictive.
The Greatest Yet?
So, this extreme take on the 296 platform wears the hallowed Speciale name pretty comfortably and is a scintillating dynamic experience. Plus, it looks fantastic, makes a great noise (for a 3.0-liter V-6), and is faster than any human could reasonably desire.
But is it a game-changer? For me, no. It feels like a 296 GTB plus about 15 percent. That’s a great thing, but it falls short of the giant leap between the 458 Italia and 458 Speciale. You sense there could be even more to come: a 296 XX Stradale, maybe? Or, more intriguingly, a less complex version that explores a more old-fashioned path to driving nirvana. While I was at Maranello, more than one person asked me whether I thought a manual gearbox would be an interesting new (but old) direction for Ferrari fans. I think it’s safe to say I made my feelings clear.
there you have it, a road car with race stripes for the road that's best used on a wider, more forgiving track lol
then comes the ferrari ass kissers reviews, which will be posted by the bugattidikrider173 that is hiding under fake names to brainwash you and tell you who's an engineer and who's not and why your opinion doesn't matter, because you can't afford one lololololol

here's the catch, if you want one, you must own at least 3 -5 ferrari's in the last 8 years lolololol
price difference between this and the gtb is a complete joke, you pay an extra 150k - 200k for a shitty looking kit and an extra 50hp with some tweaks to the suspension with titanium parts to justify the price.
what they won't tell you is, the thing that makes a big difference in lap times is the tires. so if you switch to semi-slick tires on your gtb and try to do a quick test between the two and find out the lap times are almost identical, you will be shocked and ferrari will void your warranty whenever you take your car in and they see your car is fitted with tires that they claim is only suitable for the 296 speciale and not the gtb that will affect the cars handling and could damage other parts lol.
the new management has turned into a f--king joke, ever since they entered the stock market game and increased production numbers. no thanks to this dumb shit smoker that left with disgrace
this is the last special ferrari speciale
296 speciale is more of cell phone that will be replaced by the so called selected owners the moment the prices start to go up and won't mention a thing about how bad the hybrid system is and how much it costs in the long run.

Wait, Michelin Cup 2 Tires? Didn't the 296 GTB/GTS run Cup 2 R on literally all the press tests?

296 Speciale more balanced than the SF90XX considering the latter lose a lot of speed 199 mph vs the base SF90 212 mph. 296 Speciale still keeps 205 mph tops speed the base 296 had. Better hope more tho this 296 gets wider tires to demonstrate better track performance than the SF90XX did which was basically slow down by its tires.

I have no doubt that this will be a rocketship both on the drag strip and on the trak, but more over, it'll bring the attention away from the original 296 GTB, and those will become much more accessible for ordinary folks. And that will be great, because those are freaking awesome already.
