OFFICIAL FERRARI F12 TDF PICTURE THREAD

Thanks and appreciated!!!

Thats a shame...its a color that looks great on the classics!

Great!

 

That's really nice Alcantara Olivier. Is that Cuoio?

 

Difficult to be sure... but I'd say Iroko or cuoio personally

 

Indeed a great color for the classics. This Azzurro Dino painted Daytona was on a 1970's American TV program>

Delighted to see a tdF owner chose Azzurro Dino for his Ferrari!

There's a lot of justice in those pics! Love that blue. Gorgeous car.

I'd vote iroko. Where's the picture taken Olivier? Do you know? I've been trying to buy a hat (in background) almost exactly like that for my friend.

Colombo?

 

Indeed! The raincoat probably gave it away...

The Daytona is an early USA market 1971 build. Note the paint finish compared to what shows up today as so called original at car shows!

Sometimes different is just for different's sake but wow do I love this. I'm all for tradition but really enjoy when folks take a different approach, particularly on the LE models. I mean, nothing will top Traveller's masterpiece, but damn this is pretty sweet.

+1 Anyone have an exterior pic of this TdF?

Fully agreed

 

I'm searching ! All I know it's a car from Qatar

Mat blue, mat carbon, big sticker shields

 

holy! That is a beauty. I've never seen the shields like that. Done at the factory?

 

Maybe first one I don't really like.

 

Not for me, and like RL, faintly silly.

Sorry but leave the oversized shields to the past on racing cars where they belong.

From Poland. It is a shame that the owner seldom drives it.

I like it. I wouldn't do the black hood stripe or the rear stripe, though. Other than that, quite fine.

 

Yes factory, as this earlier tdF in a special white paint from 'tailor made' shows the optional larger painted shield design. The three layer white is called Bianco Tartan with to quote the owner; a ton of pearl in it! The second close up image of the same shield though darker; shows the pearl effect quite well.
I may be in the minority but I personally like the larger shield on the tdF where it is in 'scale' with the rest of the design details. Things like the large carbon front fender trim and a general design trend to enlarge the design hallmarks.
One early example of that design trend was the vertical front fender vent on the Stradale and how that detail was made much larger on the later 430 model.
The later build tdF examples are showing a much more adventurous paint and trim selection!

Perfection.

 

Your car is beautiful! Hope to see it this summer.

 

Jay Kay seems to get older... at least this color combo is far more conservative than his previous monsters

Meanwhile, in Gotham City

I disagree! Each to their own but IMHO the Matt blue and oversized shields really work- beautiful! However, personally I think a vertical stripe and contrasting gloss cf would have looked even nicer ....

 

True- and in the picture he's obviously left his glasses at home as he double-bay parked in a rush to go across the road to the bank to pick up his pension ...😂😂
