F(12)irst impression with a classy FF

woops I meant crazy and nearly an other word but classy..
I just got back from my dealers first cocktail party of the F12 (first in my neck of the woods) and they unveiled an FF in the corner which had undergone the personalisation progame. despite the FF's well... shippish appearance someone had decided to run with this a go the whole way!
This car had been specced in a way I have never seen before, it it had a dark leather outlines on the seats with fabric and wool inserts in the seats. kind of like the waterproof carpet you see on small boats... in fact speaking of boats I felt I needed a blue blazer a scarf and really the whole shooting match with a captains hat too... the whole rear boot was finished in a tinny and artificial looking teak. Unbeleivable will try and attach picture now.

but first time seeing F12 in the metal and while much better than photographs and a striking looking car really cant see it becoming a future and timeless classic like the 275/365/550.
There is no doubt in my mind at all that is an amazing amazing superb car it is technologically in a different stratosphere it has so much power and im sure it would handle and feel sublime,, but after all arent these cars about looking and feeling great? I can kind of imagine it becoming like the testarossa or countach outrageous but not beatiful like a muira or a 250.
Dont get me wrong at all it really is a milestone and game changing car but looks are subjective and it really couldnt find that classic ferrari suave in this car.
anyway get a load of that ahoy there sailor!! get a load of that USS ff!!

 

oh do pass me my gin & tonic old chap!
