Product Overview

Ferrari F8 Tributo (Type F142MFL) is a mid-engine sports car in production from 2019. It is powered by a bi-turbo V8 engine that displaced 3.9 liters.
Essentially, the F8 Tributo is an evolution of the F142M Ferrari 488, which is an evolution of the F142 Ferrari 458. Unfortunately, the car has grown uglier with each "modificata", reaching about the same level as a McLaren. What the driver gets in return is a lot more power, which may be a questionable tradeoff for those planning to drive the car on public roads.
Utility-minded owners will have to keep in mind that the 200L (7cu-ft) cargo space may not be sufficient.

Reviewers from autocar have found the following***:
The F8 Tributo combines near-488 Pista performance, precision and playfulness with everyday usability. So alert and grippy is the front end that you can pick your line with laser-guided precision. The adaptive dampers’ Bumpy Road setting brings a real plushness to the ride. At a cruise the exhaust note is a distant blare. There’s all the usual infotainment options (although the standard sat-nav is hopeless, plus soft leather for the seats and thick carpet for the floors)

Pros
  • Powerful engine
  • Punchy handling
  • Impressive handling
Cons
  • Not as powerful as the 488 Pista

Reviewers from carmagazine have found the following***:
The F8 has the GTB's slightly softer suspension settings, but it also turns in very eagerly thanks to fast steering, is highly resistant to understeer and has carbon-ceramic brakes. The fun part is taming the flamboyancy just enough to keep the F8 moving quickly and not dropping too much time.

Pros
  • Powerful V8
  • Fantastic handling
  • Impressive powertrain
Cons
  • Not quite as agile as the Pista
  • Not the most fun to drive
