Germany has always been
Ferrari's most important market in Europe, as well as
the second in terms of sales worldwide, and the
introduction of a new model is always an occasion for an
impressive turnout of local clients and collectors as
was proved at the gala evening for the launch of the FF,
the new Ferrari 12-cylinder, in the Italian embassy in
Berlin.
The FF’s official debut on the market, which accounts
for 10 per cent of production from the manufacturer in
Maranello, was held in the presence of Ferrari Chairman,
Luca di Montezemolo, the Italian Ambassador Michele
Valensise and two special guests, German and Italian
foreign ministers Guido Westerwelle and Franco Frattini,
together with over 250 enthusiastic Ferrari clients.
During the evening Montezemolo underlined the FF’s huge
success, confirming that this year’s entire production
and a good part of next year’s have already been sold.
Germany is one of the countries with the highest demand
for the FF thanks to the car’s virtues, including its
versatility. In fact the patented 4RM system means this
Ferrari four-seater can be used under the most extreme
grip conditions, such as on icy or snowy roads.
Warm applause from the guests and flashlights from the
cameras accompanied the entrance of three FFs into the
embassy’s garden recreating the Italian flag with their
green, white and red liveries.
