    I know, I'm really excited to see the final car. I think no matter what, it will be very impressive.

    My order has been in a while and finally I have now paid my deposit and as I posted earlier, my dealers entire allocation, probably 45 cars over three years, is sold out to existing customers. They were even considering selecting recipients rather like an LE model.

    From what I've heard from my dealer I think "reveal" will be more along lines of LE/VS cars than regular model.

    Congrats !

    Now the big question is... wich grey ? I'm pretty sure you're so worn out by your atelier experience that you dont have any more energy to spec another ferrari. Thank you for letting me choose for you. No Black Holes, no yellow calipers, I respect your religion Tim. Scuro... Lava from maserati... I'll let you know when the choice is made ahah

    No problem as you now respect and understand the rules of my religion. I should caution you that before I 'go grey' I need to see my tdf one off colour in its finished form, just in case......

    Thanks Tim, after many years of experimenting with many different brands of sports/exotic cars, Ferrari has always been tugging at my heart. Where I am live, there is no official Ferrari dealer, so I am forced to deal with Toronto which is about 450km away or Montreal which is 180km. So I always seem to justify that it is not worth owning a Ferrari due to the commitment to service the car out of town....but I finally caved and will deal with that, besides, both dealers are offering to flatbed the car for service under warranty. Can not wait! And I must say, there is a wealth of information from you guys here, I am learning alot from the group.

    Congratulations guys! Very exciting!

    3 layer blue... hum... probably too bold for a V12 but how about Blu Elettrico!

    Have to say my blue (admittedly "just" TDF Blue) is a shocker when dirty, really dull. Lovely when clean.

    Sounds ridiculous since they will make thousands of them over the next 3-4 years plus the variants and true LEs. Ferrari marketing at it best. Glad you were able to get in an early order though. Always exciting!

    Not like the F12 is it, they could not get rid in the early years. What has changed ??? It won't be the last NA V12 either.

    In UK you need to go and find one of the smaller dealers if you want an allocation, I am sure Maranello and Lovetts the two biggest are sold out as Tim says. My dealer, that would have maybe 6 cars a year, has got into two years sold already, all to existing V12 customers.

    So are we now certain that V12 turbo is not the future plan?
    Or is this still under consideration?
