    Except, doesn't he confuse SM for LdM? Might be me, did have a very late business Christmas client dinner but if yes, sloppy.

    Good observation; it appears that he did confuse the two names. However Randy Pobst is the hot shoe driver and typically other writers translate his thoughts about driving. Maybe we can blame it on the time difference between California and Maranello...
    With 91 photographs shown I wonder how many more photographs they actually shot? That must be some kind of record for one car!

    Great to see the exterior details taken from so many various angles. So much going on here. Such an awesome car. Also great the exterior cf parts are in a gloss finish rather than matte like the 599 GTO and interior. I will ensure that when mine arrives that I double layer the very exposed cf components like the front splitter and side skirt with xpel. We sold our F12 last month and miss it already so very much looking forward to our new arrival in May or June.

    I love the comments. :)
    A blend of "I would want a nicer interior for $500K" and "looks like a 'vette."

    Randy is great. He's the American Chris Harris in that he does a fantastic job of translating what it's like to the drive these cars as he's actually doing it. He's well spoken, and his CV is quite impressive. I enjoy his video reviews of cars quite a bit and wish he would do more.

    Randy is much better than CH! He is a superior driver and also totally objective, unlike the Briton.

    This was epic writing ... "The Ferrari F12tdf actualizes its birthright as the ultimate front-engine Ferrari masterpiece"

    And then I saw it was the editors version ...

    They've never been in a Ferrari. lol

    Yet to be fair, it does look a bit Vette-ish. Pinanfarina it's not.
