Introduced at the 2011 Geneva Show, the Ferrari FF (“Ferrari Four”) broke new ground in several areas. Its 6.2 liter, 651-horse V-12 was the biggest engine ever stuffed into a street-legal Ferrari, and while it’s not the first four seater from Modena, its high-roofline (“shooting brake” in Euro-speak) Pininfarina body is the first to carry two pairs of adults comfortably for long distances. Finally – maybe most importantly – it’s the first Ferrari with 4-wheel drive… driver selectable, in this case. Hot Wheels has the curvaceous shape exactly right from the nose to the subtle ducktail spoiler. The same for details; if it’s visible in photos, it’s there, to scale, on the model, including the tiny (really tiny) Pininfarina scripts, the trim tab in the rear aero tunnel, and almost-invisible Ferrari badges in the wheel hubs. Behind those accurate wheels are detailed discs with Ferrari-badged calipers. This sample’s highly glossy red paint does have a little orange peel on the sides; interior detail is just as complete as the outside highlights, with accurate high-relief seats and side panel upholstery, separate belts with photo-etched hardware in back, photo-etched switch panels and chrome trim on the doors, and a dash full of accurate details, including the yellow face on the detailed tach. Dimensions are accurate, too. Hot Wheels really nailed this one. – Wayne Moyer
