CarTell take
We haven't driven the 296 GTB yet. On paper, confirm dealer ballot position before committing. Assetto Fiorano pack adds about $60k but unlocks Multimatic dampers, carbon door cards and Ferrari's most aggressive setup. GTS Spider adds 70 kg and roughly $55k over the GTB.
Why consider it
- 610 kW combined and 2.9 seconds to 100 km/h delivers supercar pace from a V6, with 25 km of pure EV range for silent garage departures.
- Lighter and more agile than the V8 F8 Tributo it effectively replaces.
- The 120-degree V6 has its own character rather than impersonating a downsized V8.
What to know
- Wait list runs into years for AU allocations through the dealer ballot.
- Capacitive steering controls are still polarising in daily use.
- Strict two-seater with no parcel shelf or rear-seat utility.
Who it suits
Track-day drivers drawn to the Assetto Fiorano pack and Multimatic dampers, EV-curious supercar buyers wanting 25 km of silent EV-only running, and collectors chasing the first mid-engined V6 PHEV Ferrari.
