I only tested the 812, on both road and track. On the road, like with most modern really powerful cars, the difficulty is not to manage the accelerations, it's to find places where the speed is sustainable. On the track, the 812 shows how well it is designed; of course it needs some respect, but it's very confidence-inspiring.
The F8 is also too much power for the road. We don’t want to admit it but I’ve come to the realization that some cars are more fun when they’re slower or take longer to get to redline…. The F8 gets to 8k rpm in a second or two; it just never stops pulling. I mean it’s fun as hell but for such short bursts on the street…. It’s a ridiculous amount of power and torque but you can only use it for a few seconds at a time when you get a clear spot… it makes me smile of course each time I do it but, being honest, it’s way too much power…. I’m probably at a disadvantage though being in south Florida where there’s mostly traffic everywhere and barely any twisty roads…. Sigh. I imagine it’d be much more fun on some deserted, twisty, country roads in different parts of the country/world. Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat
