The initial shots of the Ferrari F12berlinetta looked suspiciously re-touched for our liking, so some live shots were a necessity before making any final judgement on the car. If you ask me, it looks even better without excessive rendering.
The F12berlinetta replaces the lovely 599, but packs an even more substantial V12; 740 horsepower is expected from the 6.3L V12, allowing it to hit 60 mph in 3.1 seconds. A 7-speed dual clutch transmission will help the car go all the way to 211 mph. A curb weight of 3,362 lbs is refreshingly light for a V12 supercar.

- ToolGuy There was a time when in a place called America there were roads, and they were paved, and they were paved smoothly enough for a vehicle like this. Perhaps our next President will bring back that concept.
- ToolGuy I suppose I will listen before commenting. (TG, what a fair-minded dude!)
- ToolGuy "The technology is much more advanced to be better than a role model driver,”• Do any of you know what a "role model driver" is? No, I guess you wouldn't. 😉
- ToolGuy I might be Batman.
- Lou_BC Well, I'd be impressed if this was in a ZR2. LOL

Does anyone know what that black plastic box in the middle of the rear bumper is?! I'm undecided on the overall look, however I am sure about not wanting my Italian supercar leave the factory with something that looks like a bolted on afterthought for... whatever... I can't even imagine what it could be for...
It's like the CR-V, in that it has a very attractive mouth; it's just a bit out of scale to the rest of the facia. Fortunately, both look better after a toke. They're kinda like Gina Gershon.
