Incredible Ferrari F80 spotted in Bologna
A post on Reddit has been going viral over the past few days, and for good reason.
The post in question comes to us from Reddit user Opposite-Lime508 who found himself stuck in traffic behind a Ferrari F80 test mule supercar.
“The F80 is something else. What a spot!” one user commented.
“Daym it looks sharp in person”, another said.
“Cool spot. Ferrari absolutely cooked with the F80 design”, said a third.
Ferrari’s plans for the F80
Of course, many people are curious as to why a Ferrari F80 test mule would be out in the wild.
Luckily for us, someone appeared to have some inside knowledge.
“Deliveries haven’t started yet (production begins this year, if it hasn’t already) so likely just final validation/tweaks”, they suggested.
The Ferrari F80 was formally unveiled by Maranello back in October of 2024.
It was unveiled by Ferrari to coincide with the company’s 80th anniversary.
Production began earlier this year, and all 799 units have already completely sold out.
It is fascinating to see a Ferrari F80 test mule out in the wild – especially with first releases so close.
