    I LOVE IT!

    From what I’ve been told and as a result of my research, it seems to be the only Rosso Monza TDF in the world?

    I love the sound that it produces, the tail happy attitude, the stuff ride and everything about it.

    Inwas always a kid engine Ferrari kinda guy, until I jumped into this mean machine. It’s brutal, more than quick enough and a handful to handle.

    Overall, I’ve got a huge smile on my face for days and hopefully years.

    Sounds incredible. Does TDF sound different from stock F12 from factory? Mine has aftermarket exhaust, and TDF sounds way different from my aftermarket & stock setup. could be the speakers...

    Love your reaction to the TDF. It was as if I was watching a kid gush over his newest toy! Very genuine.

    Rosso monza is very special for a special car. It rocks that color.
    Drive it well

    That is gorgeous! If you do find it a bit too tail-happy, switch the PZero Corsa tyres to Michelin Pilot Sport 4S which are now available in the correct sizes with the K1 Ferrari designation. Makes a huge difference to road use.

    Congratulations! What a beauty! That color is a perfect fit for the TDF.

    It’s got a very lively one!



    Thanks! I’ve never been interested much in that colour, until now. It really does suit it so well.

    to save some trouble.. I went to scuderia website and added up all the TDF body panels, bumpers, glasses, carbon parts, fins, etc minus the rear bumper active aero stuff. Assuming they just bolt onto F12, the total for TDF makeover is $177,000 USD before shipping. probably close to $200k with shipping, fasteners, and paint. for the life of me, I don't understand why the bumpers are soo damn expensive. it's $61,300 for TDF rear bumper with diffuser and fins on it. :confused:

    joking aside, I would like to have TDF hood for the vents. when I open the hood after I get home, it feels like opening an oven, so i think those vents would help.

    I've not verified this to be true or not, but I was told the entire front and rear bumpers are made of carbon. Not just the shown carbon, but the painted over sections of the bumpers are as well. Kinda like the fender aero blade. Only the blade part is shown to be carbon, but it actually is the whole piece with the majority part painted over.

    right but the bumpers are never aluminium. They are either plastic or carbon fiber. And I do believe that on the TDF, at least the front is carbon fiber, as it is visible on the front corner lips.

    That's a stunning colour. The F12 really has aged well.
