Do Ferrari models have these features?

LOL, my gf's 25K 09 Mini Cooper has auto headlights/wipers, keyless go engine start, bluetooth through the stereo etc. It's not really that great, I'd rather have a roaring V8 behind my ear OP sounds like the type of guy that just wants one to valet park in front of the restaurant and look cool.

If you want a car that has all sorts of cool gadgets get a BMW or a Benz.
If you want a car that only has the accessories you need and awesome performance, get a Ferrari.
Don't be a *****.

in my e46 m3 i don't even use the auto headlights, i believe that i should be in more control of the car and what i want it to do. If i cant see because it is dark out ill turn the ****. To much technology makes for a boring ride

A few cars I've owned had auto headlights, this is one of the few convenience items I appreciate; also, basic keyless entry, auto up/down windows (at least the driver's side) and TPM. Otherwise, I almost never used any of these cars' other techno-bull****.
For example, take the non-daily driver C6 Z06 I had. Off the top of my head.. Voice command - never used it. Nav. - never used it (not saying it isn't useful, though) Auto-lock as you walk away - didn't really trust it, shut it off. HUD - only kept the speedo up, but my polarized glasses blocked out most of it. Keyless start - it was ok, but I didn't like the feel of the fob (with all my keys attached) in my pocket while driving. I could've kept them seperate, but then it's something else to forget/misplace.
Whatever else it had, I didn't use it. Basically, I got in the car and drove. Really, the only thing I miss in the Ferrari is TPM, which is available, but not with the Challenge Wheels I have. Not that it replaces a good tire pressure gauge, but it's nice to be able to keep an eye on them daily.
You know what type of techno stuff I would appreciate? Adjustable power steering effort (say, on a scale of 1 - 5), and to choose whether or not you want added low speed assist (which I don't like). Also, a similar adjustment for e-throttle response. Separate adjustments, not the usual ''regular mode/sport mode'' type of thing.
