    What are you F12tdf owners getting with your car?

    Are you getting a scale model? What scale?

    Think there is a book too?

    Anything else?

    We received the "yellow book" from Classiche, which has pics and all the documentation from the build process.

    We have not received a model (yet?)

    Received the yellow book within a month of the TDF's delivery - but still no model... not holding my breath as I still have not received my Spec Aperta model 18 months after delivery.

    The model takes close to a year to receive after the car's delivery from what I understand. That is what I was told regarding my F12B model.

    Ask your dealer every once in a while. Sometimes the model cars are delivered there and end up laying around or sitting in the showroom somewhere. My dealer has customer model cars all over the place.

    Be patient. Mine took 2 years and probably 10'requests. For the tdf I'm turning to Amalgam.

    Yes I'll be doing the same. But what model finally showed up as part of the purchase? Not Amalgam like the LaFerrari?

    For the F12b, just the standard non Amalgam model. For the tdf, I've yet to get the real thing.

    Along with the Classiche book and model, I was told owners will receive a two day Ferrari Corso Pilota driving school experience.

    Have the folder yes, no model. My F12B took 18 months, yet a recent Cali T came almost a month after the car, my 488 arrives next week, so will see how long that model takes. Not heard if there is an F12 TDF model though. Even my dealer has no idea.

    Its classic Ferrari I was told NO model for a 458SA - a very rare car. One turned up a year later but due to complex spec barely resembles my car.

    F are such a quirky company.

    there are many other pictures of various components such as the brakes, gearbox, engine etc all with chassis/engine/serial numbers displayed, as well as more interior/exterior photos.

    You will love this car - the engine alone with that exhaust note and power delivery is seriously addictive...

    Nice book! It saves the owners the hassle of having to take their own right upon delivery. Moreover, pictures were taken at the time when everything is the cleanest and brand new.

    You get throw over one now with a F12, or so I was told !

    I just received my 1:43 scale model of my car. I took delivery this past October. The model came much faster than expected...3 mos.

    very cool. From dealer, or direct from FNA?

    I was surprised, the Yellow Book came via the dealer about a week after we got the car

    LOL, I took delivery in July and... no small official model. At least not yet! In the meantime I shall continue to enjoy the 1:1 model and hopefully the smaller one will arrive as a comfort during the winter non driving months. :)
