Ferrari F12

Sibze · 03-21-2012, 11:25 AM

It's made by science again. Even the designers for the 458 said the got lucky when they made it. Ferrari is going away from first making the car look good and then trying to make it aerodynamic etc.

I remember Top Gear saying, the designers know they got lucky, it was chance that the science made the 458 look so good.

As for the lines, the lines are there for air slow. Would I say its the nicest looking car? No. Would I say it's ugly? No. Would I shy away from someone giving me one? NO!

I've got to say... Doesn't look to ugly to me:

i wouldn't kick her out of bed...........

... oh wait, wrong thread

call me crazy but I actually prefer the F12 look over the 458...I love the muscular look the F12 has over the 458. From certain angles the 458 is beautiful but I sometimes see it at certain angles and it's "ehh". Probably just me though. I'd take an F12 over a 458 any day if it were just for that V12 that we won't see in production cars going forward.

Seems like all the young whippersnappers hate the old FR layout. I love the F12. Reminds me of the 550/575 on steroids.

The only thing I don't like about the F12 is the looks. I don't mind the FR layout or the awesome V12. To be fair though, I'd probably take the Aventador over any other car

You mean the same music that you listen to Mr. Old man in a whippersnapper's body

I listen to classic britney, not the new stuff you listen to.

It looks like a V12 Ferrari to me...that should be enough.

Absolutely love it from this angle

HKYStormFront · 04-21-2012, 04:13 PM

as do i! my only gripe is that the headlights look lifted straight off the 458. in these pics, i don't see anything that distinguishes the two. *looks up at print of 599 GTO above desk* though, the 599's headlights looked like the 430 i guess...
