Probably the most enjoyable, professionally documented piece of UA-cam filming on a modern Ferrari I've ever seen.. No BS and Total respect for hearing a proper drivers opinion on a car most people will never understand..A amazingly detailed description and natural commentary.. Nailed that Ben, great video 👌
30 minutes of my life well spent, actually. I got to hear the car, heard a bit of Enzo history, and heard a sincere perspective from one of the most respectable drivers ever. Thanks Ben and crew for a lovely, thoughtful video.
The production look of these videos is superb. And your presentation skills have come-on so much that I would say you’re now one of the best. Seriously.
@@samuelgarrod8327 all the other clowns out there scheming themselves racing drivers. Ben really got my attention when he took Jodie Kidd round Silverstone (?) in that GT3RS & she told him in so many words how good he is. And he discusses everything that I would like to know about that particular car
Ben, thank you so much for this quality production, it was so enjoyable to watch, I very seldom comment on any UA-cam videos but your honest, knowledgeable and yet understated style is so refreshing. It is also great to see you in front of the camera where hopefully you will now get the credit for your craft and not some other plonkers. Hats off to your Production team for the wonderful cinematography, I have subscribed to your channel and wish you and your team all the success you deserve. PS: I don't want to sound like a twat but I take delivery of my 296 tomorrow, I have driven quite a few Press / Demo 296's and while I will never ever be as qualified as you I can say your review of this "Little Monster" is really on point. Thanks again
I would say 296 is underrated but the truth is journalist/reviewers in the know raved about it and said it’s one of the best driving experiences ever, very impressive given the long list of great Ferraris. Me personally, I’m a McLaren/Porsche GT car fanboy…..which is why I am blown away too by how good this car is to drive. The agility/sharp front end/immediate power delivery/impressive sound makes it a blast to drive at any speed, the fact that it’s bat shit fast is just an added bonus.
Did they rave about it? I never heard a peep so I was blown away by this car - Ferrari v secretive about the differential but stay tuned for my interview with their test driver who err - kinda gave it away 😜
@@BenCollinsDrives Some did, Chris Harris, Henry Catchpole, Jason Cammisa all were very positive about it saying it's the best ferrari in a long time. Throttle house also gave it a good review
I went for a 296 GTB over the 992 GT3 RS. It is spectacularly good, remarkably compliant and yet explosively quick. Has both depth and versatility that the 992 GT3 RS doesn't have. I'm lucky enough to have a 991.2 GT3 RS as well, real world there is very little difference between the 991.2 and 992 RS, so in some respects I have the best of both worlds. It will be interesting to see where Porsche goes with the 992.2 GT3 RS. At the moment Ferrari seems to be knocking it out of the park.
@@BenCollinsDrives one of the journalists for Car & Driver who I’ve followed for probably 15 years said he is always asked by people what is the best car/or car he’d have over any other and he jokingly said as weird as it feels to say ….his answer is now a V6 Hybrid Ferrari. Matt Farrah had said while testing a $532k (!) MSRP 296GTB during Performance Car of the Year for Road & Track, that as crazy expensive as that particular test car was that he has to admit it’s worth the stratospheric price. Also, I was watching The Intercooler Podcast the other day and Andrew Frankel said in Ferraris history of building some epic cars that this one is way up there and that in his opinion it’s one of the best cars he’s driven. Those are just a few examples. Great video Ben!
This is so much better than Top Gear ever was. An actual driver worthy of such a beautiful machine giving us no BS. Just pure joy of driving a beautiful machine. Love it!
Top gear never goes in too much technical details like Ben and Chris Harris and Top gear was a family show totally different to these types of reviews...
Still the most enjoyable and able car reviewer around. Criminally undersubbed. A classic that will become recognised. Great drive this time, what a car.
Thankfully Ben\Stig is still around doing these type of car videos now that the Grand Tour trio has finished. Hope to see some collabs with your old mates from time to time.
Now here’s a man with automotive culture in his heart… very well made and emotional video… I am not a Ferrari man by any means but the 296 is a very sexy mixture of less is more… and its driven by THE STIG… Grandioso 🎉
Ferrari missed a huge marketing opportunity with the 296 , by not naming it Dino 296 . I think more enthusiasts would have got what Ferrari were doing with this model then, which was focusing on driving experience, rather than just the headline figures.
So good to see you behind the steering wheel of this 296! Until now I thought these new Ferraris are only bought by vloggers to amaze their audience. And for me was very hard to fell in love on a first sight. As for me Ferrari's magic started to disappear after 458. So good to see the newest car from your perspective🙏👍👍
Your perspective and direct communication style was refreshingly enjoyable! Reviewing the 296 while simultaneously ripping it down a twisting mountain road with ease, shames all other motoring journalists 😂😂😂 Thanks 👍🏻
Some say it is the best video test of a Ferrari 296 driven on the magnificent roads of Italy. All we know is that it's true! One of the best UA-cam channels, thanks Ben.
That Ferrari looks and sounds INCREDIBLE! I absolutely LOVE that green color choice. That would be the color I would choose personally if I had the means to purchase one of these incredible technological wonders of automobile engineering. Ben Collins has had a career that the rest of us can only dream of! A very lucky man indeed.
And so the old ´Italian Tune-Up’ was giving it the beans to clean out the engine, has now moved to putting it in competition mode giving it the beans to charge up the hybrid battery quicker, great to hear some old school tricks live on 👍
Great review, nailed it!! We have over 4000 miles on our GTS and couldn't agree more with all of the comments during the film, certainly refreshing to see so much positivity about a fantastic car! IOHO, it is the best car Ferrari makes, simply a brilliant driver's car!!
In an age of almost too much UA-cam car content Ben is managing to navigate and bring great informative content presented at the highest level. Really enjoying his content.
Ben gives us well made , informative and entertaining videos . He is a great driver with keen interest and so much knowledge. He certainly doesn’t need so called guests . Let them do their stuff and give us more of this please 🙏
We were driving my friend’s Ferrari around the roads behind Lago maggiore a few years back. Everything Ben says about the Italians and Ferraris just is so true.
Ben is DA MAN 👍🏼 As another person already posted, I rather watch a “real” car driver review a car than the thousands of UA-camrs that think they’re car experts because they have lots of money, a big expense car collection and thousands (even millions) of subscribers! Ben is the real deal, “HE” deserves the millions of subscribers!!!!
Ben should be a presenter when they look for a sequel to the grand tour , he's got it all Funny , charismatic , intelligent , good looking oh and he can drive a bit too
Ferrari, Ben Collins and a great road. The perfect ingridients for a great video. Non bulshit only great information and details. UA-cam car review profesionaly done. Great work Ben.
Great video Ben. Thanks for sharing it with us. It's the prettiest Ferrari since the 458. The company nailed with this model. It looks beautiful in green too.
Having watched Clarkson, Hammond and May say their final farewells Friday , I felt quite melancholy that it was an end to an era for epic car content. Then up steps Mr Ben "OG Stig" Collins who delivers a review worthy of a Sunday night, prime time car TV slot in its own right. Ben, you're the torch bearer now. PS I agree , that Verde is amazing 💚
Another exceptional car vid from Mr collins! New car programme Ben collins Steve Sutcliffe Chris harris And a 5 minute harrys garage segment in the middle Tell me im wrong....actually don't, just make it happen!
First of all the correct pronunce is: Major Franchesko Barakka (baracca is worth while barrack in english). In 1916 ther was'nt the Regia Aeronautica (Royal Air Force), but only Regio Esercito (Royal Army). So pilots came from various arms, and Major Francesco Baracca came from the 3rd regiment Savoia Cavalry which had as insigna a black badge with 3 flames. This is because the horse is balck. If he had ccome from another regiment the colour would has been different. For example 4° regiment Genova (Genoa) Cavalry woluld has been yellow with 3 flames. 8°regiment Montebello Lancers would has been green with 3 flames. and so on. The yellow under the horse is because yellow is the colour of the city of Modena since medieval times, and the shape is of course that of a medieval shield. The thre colours green, white and red is the thre colours of the french army modified during General Napoleon Bonaparte invasion of Italy after that he defeated Piedemont Army and Austrian Army in Marengo. So Italy became a satellite country of France. French brought in Italy the Napoleon Civil Code taht was operating till 1942.
Amazing video and that style of car view is honestly the best one out there with the most experienced record of driving the latest best cars since forever and you shine like the star you are ❤
La 296 è probabilmente la Ferrari più completa e equilibrata di tutte con una linea sportiva ma non eccessiva , con prestazioni da togliere il fiato veramente incredibile ❤, ma se mi chiedete se è la Ferrari migliore per me è no amo tutte le Ferrari e ognuna è unica a differenza delle altre case tedesche e non, ma come motorizzazione per me il V12 Ferrari è irraggiungibile da chiunque anche da questa meraviglia poi le vecchie Ferrari sono uniche e dal fascino irraggiungibile sarà perché rappresentano una perfezione motoristica e stilistica che non esiste più sarà per quella nostalgia che si ha del passato e di quei tempi meravigliosi che non ci sono più ma per me sono irraggiungibili, anche se amo queste meraviglie moderne che Hanno sempre quel fascino e esclusività che le caratterizza ❤
Love the green color, think it looks great on almost any car. 911, Continental GT, Genesis GV90/G90, Bentoyaga, just a few with this dark green that look amazing.
Ferrari knew they had something when they let Alfa develop the V6 for the Quadrifoglio. Lovely, nimble V6 that's a modern step up from the 458 italia without losing the drama and excitement
This sure does manage to capture the essence of Top Gear with the production and editing. Makes me wonder if Ben managed to snag a few people from the crew.
Loved this, absolutely excellent job, Ben. Really informative with expert opinion and insight. Give me a proper driver learning to do UA-cam rather than a UA-camr trying to be a driver any day. The difference is immense. I must say that's probably the nicest colour I've seen on a 296... Although not keen on the interior also being green. We all know it should be light tan! Tan Daytona seats with metallic green, my goodness. Take my money which I don't have.
I've always maintained that if I was ever lucky enough to have the funds to buy and own a Ferrari, it would be in Rosso Corsa, but that green is absolutely beautiful. Great piece as usual Ben. 👌🏼🇦🇺
I am lucky and happy enough to own a 296GTB by myself. Not in green, but in F1 rosso, which is a matte red....😉 I watched quite a few 296 vids on YT before and after I bought it. But I must say that none of those videos captured the essence of the 296 as I perceive it as well as this 30 minutes clip. Thank you very much. Great work! This car is so much fun to drive. Forget the flimsy buttons and the inefficient UI, but the amount of driving fun this car offers is pure joy and brings a big smile on my face every time I push the accelerator. And yes, it turns heads everywhere you go with it. I never heard a single negative comment and people are all smiles. So am I...
Amazing video as always......................I was only disspointed you never took the old italian guy for a spin. Would have made his day and some ☹That was a missed opportunity, I feel!!! "There was real passion there"!
What a brilliant review Ben. Great car and great cinematography great commentary Ben. Rather envious of your sub below called Mr Bond 0074 who took delivery of his 296 2 weeks ago. 😃👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍Well done him 👍👍👏👏

Yes. Thanks for keeping it real.
I agree, 75% of Top Gear was stupid pratting about for non-enthusiasts.
We need a new programme for car enthusiasts.
@pauladams5673 of course it was. It was entertainment! The world's most popular show.... and I bet you looked forward to and never missed an episode!
Couldn't have said it better
Agree with you 100%

Add that excellent green leather and I'm with you. Haven't seen that before
The production look of these videos is superb. And your presentation skills have come-on so much that I would say you’re now one of the best. Seriously.
I agree.
I would like to see Ben and Harris collaborate for a serious race event and document it all, they are both the real deal in this game
They should collaborate, both brilliant
Ben, Chris Harris and someone like Jason from Engineering explained would be a good trio. Throw Johnny Smith in there aswell.
would love for them both to tackle pikes peak hill climb
Hands down the best car review I’ve seen in ages. No gimmicks. Just an articulate guy who knows his shit and can drive. Awesome.
I would rather watch Ben's videos. He can really drive and he really knows what he's talking about
Loved this car - next time hopefully unleash it on track as well but this was a unique chance to “see Italy” the Ferrari way
Rather than... just curious.

I remember him showing some UA-cam goons his integrale. Casting pearls before swine . They were clueless and borderline disrespectful.
I nearly fell asleep, so boring! Good reason he wasn't a presenter on tv
That color is just incredible.
458 and its naturally aspirated V8 will always be my favorite mid-engined Ferrari. More than you’d ever need or want on the road, and fantastic sound.

Brilliant job Ben, very enjoyable. Top job. John
Glad you enjoyed it
The old guy trying to explain the Stig that he can't park the Ferrari in that spot was very sweet
Magnificent car! and great video! Thanks Ben.
Brilliant video. No bla bla, I was hanging on every word
This and the 812 are the best Ferraris of the last 5 years.
What a brilliant review Ben. Great car and great cinematography great commentary Ben. Rather envious of your sub below called Mr Bond 0074 who took delivery of his 296 2 weeks ago. 😃👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍Well done him 👍👍👏👏
