    Verde Scuro as shown on the Dino is spectacular! Mario thank you for taking the time to put this very green list together.

    Always thought that a silver with a greenish cast (extra green flake) would be very elegant. Have never seen it anywhere tho.

    Thank you for the great pictures of this F12 in Verde British Racing and for the explanation given. Due to the fact that the color changes with the light as you indicated, I post one more picture, that I believe is of the same car but taken in natural light, and that way we can appreciate the differences.
    Before I wasn't aware of the very reduced number of F12's Berlinetta that exist in Verde and only when I tried to search for pictures of this model in green that's when I realized that you can count with one hand's fingers the cars that have been photographed . May be Marcel has an idea of how many F12's in Verde were produced

    Mario very nice F12 Verde British Racing find in the daylight there. That tends to give a more natural look to the paint color. Thank you!

    Verde Pino looks more green to my eyes, whereas our color reminds me of Grigio Titanio with a greenish rather than bluish tint. Admittedly slightly darker & grayer perhaps?

    We used Scaglietti’s Celeste Gainsborough as a starting point and went slightly greener and grayer. The goal was to create a slightly updated, more modern version of a classic 1950’s color.

    This poor F12 picture thread has definitely been co-opted!

    40 F12 Berlinetta from different countries in Europe gathered at Nurburgring in 2015. From one of the pictures taken where there are 32 cars it's possible to have an idea of the color distribution that I presume to be the following:

    Grigio: 13 cars
    Rosso : 10 cars
    Nero: 6 cars
    Giallo: 2 cars
    Azurro: 1 car

    The picture doesn't show any Verde F12 confirming the idea that there are not many around in Europe and this color could be considered a "rarity". Having consulted on a regular basis during the last four years Autoscout 24 and Mobile.de, I don't remember ever seeing a Verde F12 for sale in continental Europe. My feeling is that the majority of the ones that exist in Europe are probably located in the UK . Apart from Marcel's Italian Verde Seabird I've seen also some pictures of another Verde with Swedish plate number and that's all.

    When I think of a beautiful green car immediately pops to my mind the Green British Racing color of the convertible Triumph Spitfire Mk1 1963 of someone I know. IMO the darker green car colors is something that is very British.

    Green one #6 clearly is my favourite.

    Correct.
    And no, I don't know how many "green" F12's have been produced but certainly not that many.
    And just one in Verde Seabird.
