    I just picked up this wonder-car. It's a stunner but coming from my Titanio F12, I see that I overshot my more conservative palette. I love it but my default is to blend in more. Oh well... it’s time to puff up my ruby chest and display my fiery feathers. :)

    Beautiful!
    2 questions:
    1. I have a titanic F12 that I adore...how do the two cars compare to you?
    2. Picture 1 and 2 look to be almost identical shots, so how does the “do not enter” sign seem to appear out of thin air? :)

    I still have my F12 so I'll drive it when I get back home to verify my impressions before I post my opinions. In short, the upgrade is a no-brainer overall.

    I Photoshopped one of the pictures. I was having a difficult time uploading pictures (too large, it said) and I ended up posting pics that I left out of the first try.

    Here are several more in a different light and location.

    Really like the second picture of the full driver's side profile down by the water in post #3 here. It looks like a 'fire red' wave washing over the 812 in that paint color with the light and shadows. Beautiful!

    Wow love the color and the way it changes in the light. I recognize the places.

    Just curious - I love my F12 but why keep it and the 812? If it’s a value thing I understand but otherwise .....


    I wrestling with paring down cars. Only so much time.

    Drive it well ,

    Quite interesting.
    I went from a Rosso Maranello F 12 to a Ross Fuoco Tdf, and now a Grigio Titanio 812.
    The Rossi Fuoco was absolutely stunning but very difficult to just take for a drive. Way to much attention.
    For everyday usability the Titanio is great. (I drive my cars quite a lot).
    By the way, both the F12 and Tdf were amazing cars, but I am really enjoying the 812. Best of all worlds.

    Love my Grigio Titanio 488 spider. But I doubt it was just the color of the TDF

    I'll be selling the F12. I will miss the low-key color. But I do like the sense of occasion the Fuoco bestows.

    Yes. For daily use Titanio is a great color. There was an Titanio 812 in a local shop for several days, and every time I approached it I was taken aback at the beauty of it.

    Here's a picture that shows the orange element of the color behind the front wheel as the bright sun hits it. It has a bit of a faded look relative to the rest of it.

    Red is the fastest color:D

    Rosso Fuoco is my favorite red, photos don't do it justice.

    I may go with Rosso Maranello in the future. I like that color as well.
