    Yes.

    This example is an OTO (one-to-one) version - 612 later versions.

    It has the later engine (F133H), super fast gearbox (same as the 599), Bose 2Din, electrocromatic roof, start button on the steering wheel, etc.

    A beauty! Love the color scheme and those wheels.

    Easiest way to tell is the Manettino, only Sessantas and OTOs have that. I can't be 100% sure but this one seems to have the HGTII package as well by the looks of the exhaust and the brakes.

    Certainly looks like an OTO, panoramic roof is a sure sign.

    Yes, second car is also an OTO. You can tell by the manettino on the steering wheel, among other details. I think those are aftermarket wheels. They are very similar to the base wheels on the OTO, but I think there is a slight difference-- or maybe it's just a shadow. Either way, I like them.

    Agreed, also an OTO. Doesn’t have the propellor sports exhaust though so looks like the original owner specified the quieter original version..?

    I used to think red wasn’t the 612s colour but that looks stunning. Lovely interior worth the white piping too.

    The wheels on the red car look like 458 wheels. At least in design. If the fitment is not the same then they are aftermarket designed to look like them.

    Diny is 100% correct... those are 458 five spokes. Personally I like the black car but wish it had the interior of the red one! Haven’t seen white contrast piping on Daytona’s in cuoio before

    sorry guys, a 3rd car. and this is the last one i'll go take a look. in China these will fetch around 170-200k US$.

    Please say anything that you spot weird or deserve some special attention.

    about the following car's rims, aren't they for regular 612s?

    That one is an OTO as well, and it has the stock wheels. I like the stock wheels-- it's what I have on my 612. Easy to clean, and look good.

    Dang! These are pretty nicely spec'd cars for the China market!

    I love the first 2 OTO's, especially like the red with cuoio and light piping...but only if the wheels are changed back to 612 specific wheels (yes, those are 458 wheels). I personally despise cars with other same make/different model wheels.

    And sorry, but you asked for opinions, but the first 2 vehicles do not have the details in the wheels right. The first one with chrome have non-chrome caps...a no-no. The second one didn't even have any caps at all...for the $$$ you mentioned, they didn't even bother to get the caps right...oh well.

    Then what is the wheel of the first black car(grey interior)? isn't that stock? or an option?

    Those are 612 wheels, should be the challenge wheels that they share with the 599...But I am not sure the chrome is from the factory. So my comments are that when they chromed the wheels, they maybe should have chromed the caps or bought aftermarket chrome ones to match better.

    But, If you do not mind the look...then it really is no big deal. I am one of those anal guys where wheel caps can drive me crazy.

    what are the differences between US spec and Euro spec OTOs ,by the way, any previous discussion on this? I am a 360/430 guy, the 612 thing is new to me, i just developped a itch for the 612 recently and couldn't let go of it LOL

    That third car looks good too. Has the non sport exhaust option as well though.

    The exhaust tips on the 3rd car look aftermarket to me. Appear to have an outside curl - the standard exhausts have parallel tips, skewed cut.

    Kevin- There were multiple options for wheel centers on the 612 in several colors, all OEM. Chrome was not a choice. The 599 and 612 OTO did not share wheels except for the fronts. The rears on the 599 are an inch wider.

    I thought all OTOs have sport exhaust as part of the package, but I may be wrong.
