    So I took delivery of my 2015 F12 about 8 months ago. But I still haven't gotten the model scale car that comes with each custom spec delivery. Did any of you guys get your model scale car yet? Or does Ferrari not give those out anymore. I had one for my 599 GTB and 458 Italia.

    As someone said in a previous thread regarding costumers not getting their models. "They do make them and ship them. It's just a case of who's desk it sits on."

    2 F12s later from same dealer, no models. Dealer claims they don't get them for F12. I expressed surprise with that statement. They shrugged and couldn't care less. Usually it has ended up on a sales person's desk, who may have left by that point, so disappears into the back office of deal sweeteners or somewhere else, but not with the speccing customer. Can't say I'm bothered about a small model. More bothered about dealer never replying to any emails whether to sales, service, after sales or parts, not responding to online service requests through their own portal, forgetting to pay F SpA so delaying car collection.

    Here's a couple Cali's on my desk. My FF is at home in the man cave. The models are cool, the interior is colored just like the car, the tachometer is the same color, if you had color stitched cavallinos in the headrest then they are colored in the model, shields, wheels are identical, and calipers as well.

    I received one for my F12, out of the country but will post once I return in a week or so. Haven't gotten one for the FF or Speicale but for one for my Cali T pretty quick.

    Will be interesting to see if they do one for my aperta as I ordered it in girgio silverstone opaco with some wild green stripes lol

    These models are made by the Italian company BBR and are available from good automodel shops for +/- $200. (see, ::BBRModelStore.com)

    The main difference between Ferrari supplied versions and the normal commercially available models is the Schedoni leather base, which adds substantially to the retail price.

    If they are customised to match a real vehicle, I guess this adds to the pretty erratic delivery of some models!

    Are these models a U.S. only thing or worldwide? I've heard no mention of it with my UK 458 and F12 purchases.

    I've seen 458 models for UK 458s. I haven't seen but have heard dealer say that they do get models for California (assume T now, but statement was referring to old 30). Haven't seen FF or F12, UK dealer statement to me was that they don't get F12 models. I can't verify that, and if normally models are made, whether the loss occurs at SpA in not sending them out or at the dealer in the UK in not passing them on.
