    Milano, this picture shows Italian design at it's best. I might be wrong but these two cars will always be remembered as the last V8 and V12 with Pininfarina signature and like you've stated, "beautiful creations with every single line carefully crafted to perfection"

    Surprise to see no LEDs on the steering wheel and no CF anywhere.

    Actually the whole world except America and RHD countries except Japan. Anywhere in Europe or middle East, for starters.

    Carbon or LED's would not really fit the retro 1960's theme.
    Note also this F12 has the large style fender shields to...

    Could be wrong but I think that middle east cars are as a convenience for resale built to USA spec.
    This blue F12 had a GB theme so maybe should have gone as RHD to the UK customer but it didn't. The Piper 488 Spider was also a UK theme to.
    Are Swiss destination cars built to the EU market regulations standard? Maybe Marcel knows the in's and out's for his market?

    Isn't this one of the 70th anniversary spec cars?

    Middle East cars share the visual specifications with EU, that is, LHD, no side markers. Not sure if internally there might be any differences but FWIW I think they still differentiate in the 8th VIN digit which states geographical market.

    Swiss cars are EU spec for the most part. I can tell you that, for example, Swiss and EU LaFerraris share the same 8th VIN digit, "B", so I suspect there aren't any differences anymore in those for EU and those for Switzerland. Until some years ago the 8th VIN digit was an "S" for Swiss cars.

    So, the F12 in question, not having side markers and being LHD, could be EU (incl. CH), Middle East, Eastern Asia including Japan (note Japan is an RHD country but most exotics are sold in LHD). The full VIN could surely give us more info.

    Yes, same dark blue color as the 250 SWB #2119 of Rob Walker and raced by Sir Stirling Moss. This was its connection for the 70 years series from Ferrari.

    Thanks. I actually parked up behind that car in Bond Street, London last year.

    Absolutely stunning car. My FF looked absolutely huge by comparison! :)

    I was reviewing this and actually you're at least partly right about the USA and Middle East. Here in this reference for the TR series and useful VIN info: Red Headed - VIN Decoder which is a classic VIN info source since many years, says that between 1996 and 2007 USA and ME cars shared market digit "A" and thus specifications, so they should be at least theoretically "interchangeable" between countries. I'm not entirely sure that the reason could be convenience for resale, but there you go.

    A little more quick research tells me that Swiss cars fully share EU specs and 8th digit in the latest models at least.
