Tim a good sign; more RHD cars being built. Some nice details with the blue stripe on the car and on the steering wheel to at 12 o'clock. Plus what appears to be blue carbon for the base piece on the front grill. The carbon trim piece shows better in this third picture>[/QUOTE] I understand that I should get an October build. I very much hope no later as I want to drive back through the passes.
Lovely. And yes, trous noir suck; a foray into rappers dictating taste in cars. Happily they've reached their peak. -F

I really like the blue brake calipers. Brave move. Most of the owners went for yellow, black and red calipers..

My personal opinion..the light baby blue stripe does not work on a yellow car. Silver or grey car..yes
I think I finally found the Grigio Granito car spotted by Traveller at the factory http://ag-spots-2016.o.auroraobjects.eu/2016/07/16/ferrari-f12tdf-c332116072016184307_3.jpg http://ag-spots-2016.o.auroraobjects.eu/2016/07/16/ferrari-f12tdf-c332116072016184307_2.jpg http://ag-spots-2016.o.auroraobjects.eu/2016/07/16/ferrari-f12tdf-c332116072016184307_1.jpg A grey really dark that can sometimes look like black
here are a few pics from his morning's e@rtc. (well and i had to get gas. i thought i remembered someone saying to take a picture at a shell station or something? whatever!) http://astrokev.com/images/rtc/IMG_3682.JPG http://astrokev.com/images/rtc/IMG_3684.JPG http://astrokev.com/images/rtc/IMG_3685.JPG http://astrokev.com/images/rtc/IMG_3676.JPG and, for extra fun... a tdf blue 550 next to the f12tdf... under wraps!? the people in the 550 section didn't pick up on it, so i figure i can try here (and be more obvious) http://astrokev.com/images/rtc/IMG_3646.JPG unwrapped... http://astrokev.com/images/rtc/IMG_3648.JPG i should put the speciale next to them and do a "red, white, and blue" one for next jul 4.
Yep. Yellow IMO overwhelms the FRB stripe, Argento should be cooler but good luck to the owner. The car is a "Class A substance" after all.
I have waited many months for CH's TDF review - and as expected he expressed far more emotionally the TDF's impact on him than what was shown on Top Gear. Due to overseas travel and the winter weather here, finally managed to get on the road this sunny and dry weekend. So glad I did before seeing his video - made me feel a lot better after somewhat abruptly losing rear traction shifting from 2nd to 3rd at approx 6k revs as I let her loose for the first time on a freeway on ramp. Did scare me a little I have to admit! Yes the tires were still cold but this is the first car I have had that makes you really sit up and pay attention when you want to get on with it. The Aperta is a ***** cat in comparision in similar situations. Just love it....and that exhaust is just to die for even at 5k revs hence I am adding Forza's remote valve opener this week so that I don't have to drive at license losing speeds to hear that magnificent V12 sing.

Sounds like a fun drive. The remote valve opener sounds like a good idea as your neighbours might hate your car a little less than just open valves. This one looks new: https://www.instagram.com/p/BH9dsNfhNhM/?tagged=f12tdf&hl=en
My favourite blue from Ferrari's colour palette. Actually i love Avio Metallic but hey...this is gorgeous!
Some nasty shots of Elipinski's car http://ag-spots-2016.o.auroraobjects.eu/2016/07/18/ferrari-f12tdf-c783018072016014940_1.jpg http://ag-spots-2016.o.auroraobjects.eu/2016/07/18/ferrari-f12tdf-c783018072016014940_7.jpg http://ag-spots-2016.o.auroraobjects.eu/2016/07/18/ferrari-f12tdf-c783018072016014940_8.jpg http://ag-spots-2016.o.auroraobjects.eu/2016/07/18/ferrari-f12tdf-c783018072016014940_6.jpg
Thank you for this Ben; you have an exquisite stable there! ps. 3/4 rear view would be interesting to... Image Unavailable, Please Login

Assume both John Collins, Talacrest, UK. Photographed in John's backyard, have been there, know it well. The F12 for sure is JC's. See also pix in F12 thread. Marcel Massini
