    +1. And owners of the older models love them as much as any newbie, and they remain admired by others.

    No you didn't!!! Did you? Will you be my neighbor?

    Now I'm a little agitated that my Ferrari dealer hasn't called me about an allocation yet. As expressed in similar fashion already by others, the F12 is IMO the sublime expression combined with the revolutionary extension of Ferrari style and performance. I dream of how it will look in my garage, those dreams becoming downright naughty when I consider how it will drive.

    May you enjoy to the fullest your new F12, my friend!

    An excellent question!


    I don't think US dealers know anything yet.

    Ordered one - delivery Nov / Dec this year.

    Still deciding on spec but most likely going for grigio silverstone with Bordeaux red interior.

    Saw it at maranello for the private unveil and think it looks gorgeous, can't wait to see how it drives, have very high expectation after speaking to De Simone on handling..

    Correct, everything to this point is speculation. I did however notice that the F12 is now in modis...just waiting ( impatiently :) ) to see how long it'll be before we can order cars :)

    I've heard and read MODIS multiple times before, what exactly does that mean/stand for?

    It means it has an order number for their system. Without this, the dealer can't order it.

    But, they may not know their allocation yet so they may still not be able to place an order.

    It's where every dealer goes to order their cars and stands for "Models for Operations between, Dealers, Importers and Subsidiaries"

    I'll be taking the delivery of a RHD car. Usually, they are manufactured later than the LHD ones by a few months.

    That matte silver car looks gorgeous in that picture. I am not going to like the F12 in black.

    My only issue is that seam by the front fender "winglets". Wsh that was not there.

    I was offered an early build slot if I take one of the dealer FF's.

    Gee thanks.

    I had breakfast yesterday and today from the McDonalds Dollar Menu. Only 197,998 more of those and I'm all set. But even then I'm sure I'll still have to buy an FF first.

    I still think the design (especially the front) is too close to the FF as opposed to the difference between the 599 and the 612. Apparently, Pininfarina has a less important role in the design development which is now being led internally. Perhaps some of the uniqueness therefore get lost as the objectives might be different (economies of scale etc.).

    The interior (dashboard, steering wheel...) look more and more similar between the models which I have a bit of a concern with.

    When I first saw the 458 I was knocked out but both the FF and F12 in my view do not have breathtaking designs (impressive cars though). The design is so important to me.

    What do you others think?
