Smile In love with the F12berlinetta!

The F12berlinetta.... so agressive. Can't get over this one.
Apparently the owner of the enzo sold the F12berlinetta to the current owner of it.
Hope you guys enjoy the video:

My sister works for the guy with the orange Enzo, she's sent me pics of it before. She told me that he also sells Ferraris so it is very likely he was the dealer. Unfortunately I haven't had the chance to meet the guy yet.

Yep. Ferrari of Orange County I believe. He was at the show. Seemed really cool. There's a video of that car on the channel if you wanted to check it out. Someone tried opening his door and he was like "3 million bucks and you think im gonna let you touch it" haha

Probably one of my favorite modern cars of all time, and one of the best looking (IMO) Ferraris since the 355.

Yes, especially the 599 GTB GTO. In fact I don't like the current Ferrari design (Calinfornia, 458, FF, F12), just as I don't like the new Maserati design (Quattroporte, Ghibli), nor even the Alfa Romeo design (Mito, Giulietta, 4C). I hope Italian design will get back on track. I'm looking forward to 458 replacement, the LaFerrari has something good in it, even though proportions are off IMO.

There is really no hate from my part. First on pics they looked somehow good, in reality I didn't feel them.

Again, all this is subjective, take into consideration I'm a huge fan of new Lexus design, which for most is ugly.

I had a hunch about that - I asked because we seem to have opposite tastes in design. I loathe the design of the 599 but adore the F12. I don't love the 458 but the FF is pretty neat (although it looks quite similar to the F12 head-on so no shocker there).

The MiTo and Giulietta look much better when you park them next to their respective competition but that's subjective, again. You either hate that beak or love it. I do think the 8C is probably the best looking car they've ever built.

I have a friend who tracks a 430 Scuderia, owns a 599 GTO and an F40.
He's a surgeon. His wife won't let him track the GTO because it's too fast! Most cars will hit about 155 at NJMP on Thunderbolt (a realatively fast car), but he hit 175mph with his GTO!

Some paint for the cheap black plastic and a better stance improves the look of the car.

599's are ridiculous. They were my favorite but I cannot argue with its replacement!
