    Congrats on the 218mph speed.!

    I have only managed 203.5 mph on a 1.5 mile radared event. It's a great sensation, and the car is pretty comfortable.

    In the USA it is difficult at best to peg an F12 without going to jail. On the German Autobahn it's another thing entirely. I would love to drive the F12 on my favorite parts of the A1, A24 or A7 that are unrestricted....

    Best regards

    I currently own a 2015 F12. In the past I've owned a 2009 599GTB and 2013 458 Italia. The F12 is a huge jump from the 599. The steering, power, and gearbox is very direct. I recently took my F12 to the canyons and I was scared sh*t less. Jeremy Clarkson was right about the F12 having too much power. Its not a bad thing but you just have to be careful with the gas pedal. I was able to enter and exit the corners with the F12 at higher speeds than the 599. Probably due to the amazing double clutch gearbox, direct steering, and improved brakes gives the driver more confidence. I love the downshifts of the F12 especially in the tunnels. Overall, Ferrari keeps amazing me with their front engine V12's. I wonder how the "F12 VS" will handle and feel. Enjoy your beautiful F12 in good health.
