    On a funny side note, that yellow caliper thing must be the latest Euro trend. When we toured the production line last week, we saw so many cars, irregardless of color, with yellow calipers we actually saw so many we actually started counting how many DIDN'T have yellow calipers. It was around 5 out of roughly 50+ 8 cylinders.

    Don't think it's a Euro trend, there's many delivered here with yellow calipers. I just personally wouldn't put a very contemporary item like yellow brakes on a model that is being marketed (presumably with a healthy price premium) as a commemorative limited edition.

    Yes bizarre on calipers Camlet and last to use ANurburgring. The original was not, it was Aureil, like a GT silver, am a bit underwhelmed but pregnant with it.

    Auteil was an 18K GBP additional cost on my tdf. I didn't much like the cost versus likely outcome, it's a fairly dull silver. I felt a standard but happily bright AN would suffice nicely as the base.

    Besides I was then able to convince myself to splash out on full carbon for the engine - the 8K GBP felt like a bargain!

    That's the size when you opt for extra campionario painted on shields. I like them. I do suppose you could shrink the size to the badge version, then what would be the point of the painted shields ?

    Since whole F12 TDF design is over the top, those oversized (huge Polo shirt logo style) shield are okay.

    Sorry but the shields look absurd and frankly the entire scheme looks a mess to my eyes. So much going on that the overall design is broken up into a series of colourful bits.

    Well, TDF will rise in value, so its not pricey if you look at it as investment :D

    Those rims look good and I assume the suspension slightly dropped?

    Isn't this one from Gordon Ramsay?
    With the HRE wheels photoshopped in there?

    Coudn't agree more with you. Auteuil is dull while AN is simply magic. And the carbon engine bay is must for a "Hardcore version" Ferrari.

    Quite possibly could be Mr.Ramsay's. We used this image to render up a few different finishes on the P101's for a TDF customer. A slight drop was rendered into the photo as well to reflect the common ride height drop that our customers acquire along with the performance wheels.

    For your TDF maybe but the AN and yellow calipers for my 70th is just lazy and on authentic, fans/clients deserve better.
