Impressions of my 2016 F12

Luxury GT interior of my Maser...I like dashboard air vents that look more sedate and not big round tubes. BTW, I had a two-level spinal fusion surgery (L4-L5-S1) a few years ago, so I can relate to you about back problems! Good luck!

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Bear in mind though that the F12 is a super-sportscar, not a luxo-barge!!! As such its interior needs to be less crowded and more purposeful and sporty than that Maser's.

 

Really?

Even in Beverly Hills, where you see plenty of Bentleys, Rollses, G Wagens and not a few Ferraris, where a 911 is truly just a VW, even there, an F12 is an unusual sighting that turns heads.

If you go to the Bel Air for dinner, the valets will give you a great parking space. Hell, even creaky old 599s get a good space there!

 

Eric - If you swap out the springs on your F12 it will eliminate the roll and not punish the ride. Nice and tight but no harshness using the Novitec springs and a little wheel spacing/suspension cal.

Not sure why anyone would want a Merc or Maser interior in an F12! Its not a real GT car but rather a superior front-mid engine sports car. The Cali is Ferrari's GT offering. IMO the sight of a big square LCD monitor and wood trim is not what the F12 is about. I have Nero/Cuoio with contrast stitching and CF interior with Nero carpets and it continues to amaze me and stun those that see it for the first time. I agree the upgraded radio is not high fidelity by any stretch. Sometimes I will have the radio on and set low but most of the time its on mute. Having too much fun with this car.

 

10K miles of ownership here. 2015 EU spec F12

Some factory flaws:

1) Rear hatch traps water after rain.
2) Seatbelt receptacles are not covered in leather(like the 458) causing annoying screech when rubing against the seat.
3) Dashboard has random creaks when driving on lesser quality roads.(dealer told me is common problem and can be fixed)
4) The undertray on the passenger side rattles at high speeds(easy fix with tape).
5) The black paint on the front bumper can come off easy if not careful.
6) Bodyroll is noticeable, I'm told this can be fixed with aftermarket springs.
7) Pzero tires require immaculate road surfaces or else they tramline like crazy.

Outside of these minor nuisances I've had trouble free ownership.
