    Handsome dog. That's what I'd call the ultimate theft deterrent system!

    Very cool dog!
    Incredible what the FF can provide when comes to practicality and usability.
    No garage queens here.
    Love to have my family participate.
    And the ability to drive in any condition!
    Take kids to sports practice with gears and stuff.
    Just the ultimate supercar, that is what the FF is!

    I am looking for input on driving the F-12 as a daily car in Southern California.

    Never driven the F12 but I just can't imagine anything better then the FF when it comes to a complete all around package. I was ripping it today and its such a hoot. Really Ferrari's best kept secret with zero compromises. As a stablemate addition would love an spider of some sort or an F12.. we will see where it lands in 2 years.

    Could not agree more. Ferrari's best kept secret. I have owned 9+ modern Ferrari's and FF is such a better car all around. F12 is of course amazing and i have not owned one but nothing beats the Daily Driver the Ff is.

    Unless you have to drive in snow 6+ months out of the year, just highly unnecessary.

    Back in Mozambique there was this woman who drove her toyota prado 2wd up the steep hill everyday. The hill was very soft sand and long. I've seen her trailer up their boat dozens of times.

    -------

    How often do you have more than 2 people in the car? If it's very rare, go for the F12. I love the FF as well, but between the two, if I almost never had the need for more than 2 seats the choice would be easy...

    THe F12 as a daily driver I have had mine for 6 months now and use it more or less as a DD
    My impression is this is a serious car with lots of power that can be driven fast very easily and yet when driven as a car in normal situations it is very comfortable The longest trip I have taken in it was around 200 miles and It was very comfortable and easy to drive.. But it is FAST and with the 13 to 1 compression ratio sounds awesome and is quiet when you want it to be (ie just upshift and relax)....

    The F12 tranny has been much touted in high speed applications, but its seamless, if not invisible, shifting character also makes it an AMAZING car for driving in stop and go traffic conditions. This is a car that has lessons to teach not just in high performance applications but also very much in luxury touring applications, for sure.
