Ferrari FF, the world’s fastest mulch hauler: Motoramic TV

If there's a downside to being super-rich, it's that you become easily bored. You commute to your office via submarine or hot-air balloon; you start a llama ranch in Wyoming and hire James Earl Jones to read you the newspaper. In that sort of context, what are you going to park in the garage? You'll want something intriguing, something genre-defying, but at the top of the market car companies understandably tend to play it safe.

A Rolls-Royce Phantom is a stunning piece of craftsmanship, but it's ultimately a superbly tailored sedan. A Lamborghini Aventador is a howling carbon-fiber spear of insanity, but it hews to the two-seat mid-engine supercar format that's been prevalent since the 1960s. At the $300,000-plus price point, you don't roll the dice. Except Ferrari did exactly that with the FF.
