I respect them, but for me the Ferrari engine always will be the V12. Ferrari has made other (excellent) engines, but they will always be linked with the 12 cylinder, right from the 125 up to the latest 599. In my opinion the V8s are Dinos, not proper Ferraris.
In fact I'd even go further and say that proper Ferraris not only have V12 engines, but that they are placed in front not in the middle. Altough that's not what we are discussing here.
And regarding diesels in supercars/sportscars that's just wrong.
