MELBOURNE FANS AMAZED BY FASTEST FERRARI ON THE STREET
Fans in Melbourne got really excited when the fastest legal Ferrari hit the streets. It was the first time a Ferrari XX model, made for roads and with the steering wheel on the right side, was seen in Australia. But there was a downside. Even if you had the nearly $1.6 million it costs, you couldn't get one because they were all sold out. Every single SF90 XX that was meant for Australia was already bought.
Ferrari XX cars are super special and rare. They're like the best of the best when it comes to Ferrari's fast cars. Before this, they were only for the track and only with the steering wheel on the left. The arrival of the SF90 XX in Australia shows how much people here love really fast and cool cars. It excites most people just to know that they exist, even though they will never get the opportunity to drive one.
It's not just about the car. It's about the passion and love people have for Ferrari. Seeing one of these cars in Australia is a big deal for fans who've been waiting for it.
Exclusive Ferrari SF90 XX Stradale
The newest Ferrari, the SF90 XX Stradale, is a big deal. It's priced at $1,568,200 and it's special because it can be driven on regular roads and it has the steering wheel on the right side, which is perfect for driving in Australia.
Fans got to see it before the Australian F1 Grand Prix at a fancy Ferrari event in Melbourne. Even though the one they showed was for left-hand drive, it was still the star of the show at Ferrari's setup during the Melbourne F1 race.
- Made for Roads and Easy to Drive: This Ferrari is different because it's made to be driven on regular roads, not just on race tracks. Plus, having the steering wheel on the right side makes it convenient for driving in Australia.
- Not Many to Go Around: Ferrari is only making 799 of these cars with a hard roof, so they're going to be really rare and special.
- Convertible Option: They're also making 599 of another version called the SF90 XX Spider, which is more expensive but lets you take the roof off for a convertible experience.
This new Ferrari shows how Ferrari is always trying to make amazing cars that push the limits. The SF90 XX Stradale and SF90 XX Spider are the best of the best when it comes to fast and cool cars, and they're sure to make any Ferrari fan's heart race.
Australians Await Arrival of Ferrari SF90 XX Stradale
The number of cars they're making is mostly for left hand drive. So, how many Aussies will get lucky and have the SF90 XX Stradale or Spider in their driveways? Ferrari Australia hasn't said anything, but we can guess.
- Aussie Love for Special Ferraris: Australians really like buying special Ferraris. Since the SF90 XX is special because it can be driven on normal roads, it's likely that lots of Aussies will want one.
- Guessing How Many: It's guessed that may be between 20 to 30 SF90 XXs will come to Australia.
- Preference for Spider: It seems like Australians might prefer the Spider version, where you can take the roof off.
If all this happens, Australian Ferrari fans will have something big to look forward to. It could mean around $50 million worth of cool cars hitting Aussie roads. And all this excitement comes even before any good news from Ferrari's F1 team in Melbourne.
