    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.

    Yes that is blue carbon and this was a tailor made car as well.

    My personal opinion..the light baby blue stripe does not work on a yellow car. Silver or grey car..yes

    Agreed


    @Camlet01 : Will your stripe have a similar shape ?

    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)

    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.

    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.
