    Interesting black 599, wonder what new ideas are being tested there...also great F12 pictures, I am far preferring the look of the car in these pictures as apposed to the ones in seemingly every magazine.

    My guess is that this is one of the F12 prototypes made to look like an ordinary 599... Love the looks of the F12 too!

    All 3 were driven by Gilles: the 308 is supposed to be the one Gilles drove in from Monaco to Maranello in record time.

    wonderful pictures Martin! :) ...can you say more about that small garage in the first photos? is it part of the factory, or a private mechanic? what is it?

    The shop is Toni Auto. An independent workshop but they do a lot of work for Ferrari (Classiche).

    Wow, that black car is surely a new mule for something, I'd ask about those pics around Fchat as there's always someone who knows about these matters.

    For what is worth, I dont' think it's one early F12 prototype in disguise at all, they use mules for upcoming models, I don't think they keep old mules running.

    And beautiful pictures, I love those F12's testing, particularly there's a medium grey one that looks awesome, it would be nice to know what colour it is. Finally a question: is there any dark green among your pics or are they just black and my eyes and monitor are fooling me?
