yeh I was the same .. especially the 599 .. I liked the F12 straight away I love that they say .. "revealed to the world for the first time on Ferrari.com" .. they were half an hour behind everyone else!!
Pretty impressive! And looks like the name is "F12berlinetta" without a capital b and "berlinetta" attached to the F12... So never call it a "F12 Berlinetta"!!!
Would still love to see it from the back (not at 3/4's but full back shot). It's certainly quick. 1.23 around Fiorano is quite impressive for a car with this weight and dims.
Interesting detail at the back of the roof, where the two creases of the central dip (like 458 ?) blend into the rear glass.
Love the bit in the press release about "compact exterior dimensions"! Ha, ha, ha, what, a couple of mm smaller than the monstrously large 599? Sense of humour, those Italians!
The 599 did always looked kinda heavy. This one does not. Which is quite a feat if it is indeed only a couple of mm smaller.
Wow, Ferrari has finally started taking decent press release pictures, that in itself is impressive compared to what they showed when the 599/458 came out. Really impressed with this car, and how it flows, looking forward to seeing it in person!
The proportions from the rear look really good. Low and wide. Which is why the diameter and shape of cross sections is so very important. Big, rounded cross sections can make a car appear fat and overweight, even if the overall dimensions are the same. The sections of this car appear to be in a good place, crisp and tight. -F
It's interesting how certain details creep up on you. I'm seeing quite a bit of 8C and 275 in the rear portion. Didn't see it at first.
Yes ... looks not as bad as I thought it would. As always ... I need to see this in the flesh to appreciate all the little details and lines. In fact ... I would love to get my hands on one and give it a hand wash. No better way to appreciate the design and all it's details.
