That location had to have been chosen by a left handed person that has never hooked one up. It is very hard to use. Up high and out of sight. Awkward for a right handed person. The new 488 is a dream come true for battery tender ease of use. Does not get any easier. Hopefully they will apply the design to the new 812.
Yes, the 488 and even the california are easier then the f12. You'd think they would haven given the flagship car the same or better. Also, no keyless go which the 488 has as well.
