If the Italian government ever needed to show the world a video summarizing all that is right with that country, this would be it. This is a point-of-view test drive of the new Ferrari LaFerrari on some twisty mountain roads, featuring a healthy dose of eargasmic V12 soundtrack.

This LaFerrari POV test drive also reveals some details about the car, like the fact that it comes with a built-in roll cage, and that in true Italian fashion, it’s been built with not much care. Also in true Italian fashion, the stylish gentleman driving the car appears to be accompanied by a voluptuous blonde; although, we suspect playing around with the girl wouldn’t be as much fun as playing with the car. After all, there are billions of girls out there, but only 499 LaFerraris!
