    I guess it's a Ferrari demo car for interested buyers. I saw 3 different F12's (red, black and dark blue) on the road in Maranello, all 3 of them on italian plates. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera ready for the blue and black one. Only got the red one on video.

    I was talking to someone in Maranello who bought one and he said his will be delivered in 3 weeks. First deliveries should be in 2 weeks (4 days ago, so 10 days now).

    Thanks for posting. The car looks great. Not sure about your camera but the color looks like a triple layer of some kind: Rosso Maranello? or Rosso Berlinetta (which I think is more orangey).

    Thanks. I wasn't sure which "Rosso" it was but now I think it is Rosso Berlinetta. I've recently seen Rosso Maranello in person and it was different.

    Thx for posting Maikel!! I've been waiting to see the new beast in real life and on the streets. Really shows how meaty, wide and aggressive the new car is.

    Out of curiosity, which color looked best to you?

    Black looked great but it was hard to see the curvy lines of the hood and doors in that color. From what i've seen sofar, I would go for a red one. It's a very aggresive looking car and it can handle a sporty color like red.

    The blue one I saw was probably Blu Pozzi (it was very dark blue). I also think it would look very good in Bianco Fuji or Avus but it's too bad I didn't see it in those colors.

    Yes, it has been noted that black subdues the complex curves of the design. The whites might make the car too large; will have to see in person. But the red in your video looks magnificent.

    Thanks again for posting. Seeing it prowling the streets gives a different perspective.

    To me - judging only from pictures - that it is a 100% Rosso Maranello id.

    I think that's the same one I saw at the Atelier in the factory a couple of weeks ago - is a really stunning colour on the car in real life plus a cuoio interior to die for!! Will check with the Atelier guy I deal with and come back to you on the colour.

    Look fantastic and noticed it looks smaller in that clip than some of the still pictures that have been released. Guess seeing in real life with relative sizes of surroundings put the actual size into perspective. Thanks for posting

    I think that is Rosso Berlinetta, a new tri-layer. From photos it seems to have more orange in it, almost like the regular Rosso Scuderia.
