    I find them both not great. Thankfully wheels are one of the easiest things to change.

    Thank you all guys for all the pictures to check all the rims, also the 812 Competizione...
    Damn I forgot that with the 12 Cilindri now we have 21", so maybe all other options will not be available.

    I recognize my opinion matters as little as everyone else's here and generally prefer to judge a car only after seeing it in person. However, my initial impressions of the 12C don't have me excited to ditch my 812 GTS. First, with regard to the name, I understand the meaning. But, I do really wonder what other options were being considered?! It brings back core memories of a volcano orange MP4-12C I had, which spent most of its life in a dealership service bay.

    As for the styling, I really like the front end paying homage to the 365. But, other than that, there's really nothing exotic or unique about it. Some self described moles here, claimed in advance that the car was a modern take with a muscular shape. Aside from bulging hips, I see nothing muscular about it. In contrast, the 812 looks aggressive and has a striking presence. The 12C just looks like a metrosexual GT car, perfectly cast for today's beta male. In fact, I showed my wife some videos and photos of the 12C and she said it looks more like a chick's car, than the Portofino's she's had.

    Despite it making my taffy soft, I will undoubtedly order this car in spider form, expecting it to be a prerequisite for the VS. Whether I keep my 812 or not will require some contemplation. Admittedly, when seeing the 296 at launch, I wasn't enamored with it either. I didn't see the overwhelming need to add it alongside an SF90 AF spider. But, when it works, my 296 GTS is impressive. So, I'm evolved enough to admit when I'm wrong. In preparation for the 12C spider, I'll find my inner beta and embrace becoming completely waxed. I will also ditch my OC sneakers in favor of Bottega black rhino hide driving slippers, like those Jett brilliantly showcases during his outfit reveals with Pookie.

    Not sure I agree with all of the points, but that was one of the funnier posts in a while, @Glenn Quagmire.

    I'm not it's just that I used to come here to hear news and enjoy discussion but since the reveal I just come here to laugh.

    I don't know where to go to discuss the car I like anymore, it feels like this particular sub-forum is filled with 90% haters and 10% of those who like it and actually ordered one.

    finally the TDF rims will disappear! fortunately the 12Cilindri has 21" rims. Between TDF and carbon we have been seeing the same rims for ten years now

    If we compare the rims that Ferrari presented for the F12 B and TDF and later for the 812 SF and C we see that they are not exactly the same and that there has been an evolution. However, the fact that there has not been a radical change in the aesthetics of rims does not mean that those that Ferrari proposes for the 12 C coupe are aesthetically better. In the case of the Purosangue whose rims are similar to those made available by Ferrari for the 12 C coupe, IMO they match well with the car's aesthetics. In the case of the 12C coupe IMO the rims made available by Ferrari are not the ones that fit best the car. As someone already said rims are the easiest part to change .

    Absolutely

    I suggest a Media Thread and a general discussion thread and close all other "General" threads.
