Now there are two more updates left before the 100th update arrives at the turn of the year, in keeping with the style. If we look back to 2012, when we published our initial batch on F-Register, so much has happened. With the F12, the Factory was the only new road car to be introduced. This year we're up to three, and if we include the Amalfi, which was only unveiled in the middle of the year but has been driving around Maranello as a mule since 2024, that's four.
In September, the 849 Testarossa, the successor to the SF90, was unveiled. The Berlinetta and Spider were again presented simultaneously – the marketing strategy has changed over the last decade. And... a personal opinion? Beauty is definitely different, and Pininfarina is becoming more and more of an icon. In any case, the first 17 serial numbers of the 849 that weren't called F173 M are, of course, already there. Four began their lives as F173 Ms and then became the launch models of the 849.
1,509 new registrations this month mean that there are about 400 more vehicles on the books in September than in 2024. We are curious to see what the production figures will be at the end of the year, as, based on registration figures, some regions have recently seen a decline.
