    All in all it's very nice car. Especially compared to the standard 812. I also like the increased track focused character of it. IMO we need more of these extreme Ferraris.

    Just the second degree to stick to the surrounding debate ...
    We've been talking regularly in pm with Ferr 9000 for a while now, if you have any questions you can ask him directly !

    That might be the best gentleman spec Ferrari ever. Not the route I would go but the lack of shields combined with the elegant paint color wrapping the very aggressive racing car body work creates something very special with this car. Ironically it might be the best model ever to do a gent spec on.

    Would make sense to have a name that connects to the track/racing. Perhaps even “Fiorano”

    You can find there tires directly to the Pirelli Website, with a lot of other colors/colours for your car.
    Just a little more expensive that the ''regular'' ;)

    Already used on the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano

    Curiously, that name never took off and I almost never see people referring to the 599 as the" fiorano" as they do with the Modena for exemple

    Everybody calls it "599 GTB"

    In my opinion, since the aero and body work is so aggressive, I think the lack of livery helps balance out the car and gives it the refinement and elegance it was missing. But that's just my taste!

    I’m sorry, did I insult you personally without realizing it? Since this model isn’t out yet I suspect not, so why did you feel the need to?

    Avoid it please. Bill has the right to dislike what he wants without you attacking him or his belongings. That isn't necessary and generates a bad climate

    Exactly

    I am reading that people here are complaining about the "small" 30 HP power increase, but a) that is in line with previous V12 VS (the tdf received a 40 HP bump), and b) Ferrari have said that the F140 engine is already near its limits. The 812 VS achieved the same specific output as the LaFerrari's V12, which was the pinnacle for 8 years, showing that there isn't any headroom for more performance, especially taking into account the strict emissions regulations. Given that the track-only FXX-K produces 860 HP from its V12 (okay, it's also 234 cc smaller, but it is a track engine without a need for mufflers etc), it would be unrealistic to expect a similar power for the 812 VS. That said, no one ever accused a 812 of being under-powered in the first place...

    So in the video the term "Limited Edition" was used - will have to wait until May 5 to learn what this really means

    I have reduced the saturation of the yellow on the Stripe, Brake Calipers and Logos. I also reduced and altered the colour and saturation on the types decals.
