    I really love my 612. It's a perfect GT car. It really does everything well-- it's fast, comfortable, looks great, yet you can still track it if you feel like it.

    It's a fantastic car. You just cannot go wrong with a 612.

    try to go for a 08 or newer model with the improved shifting time and newer manettino switch.
    i spend the most time in my 09' OTO and love it darely, but ferrari keeps pumping out newer and better cars, it makes keeping my 612 a little shaky.
    If u are looking for a good GT car, i think only the Bentley SS rivals it, and still the 612 moves more gracefully than the big B.

    Congrats ... There must be a run on 612's, a dealer called me and made me a decent trade offer.

    its very interesting.. they have been around.. 6 sp option however stopped in 06. The lines of the car are interesting. IMHO, The front end is gorgeous!! reminds me of 60's style.. the rear could use a little more personality.. but the driveability and the fact I got a 6 sp are everything to me. I am also installing a Tubi this week.. the sound is insane from the 12 cylinders..
