LamboNutter Report post Posted October 13, 2015 I saw the car about 4 weeks ago in Maranello. It looks a lot less imposing/menacing in real than on the pictures. I still love it. To get 780hp out of a naturally aspirated V12, with the full Ferrari warranty etc = EPIC! It will be amazing to drive, as it has a normal amount of torque 705nm and amazing balance (as did the F12). If I won the big Euromillions, this would be my everyday car. Its very fussy for a Ferrari though, so those who usually prefer Ferraris over the extreme looking Lamborghinis should hate this F12TdF, but as usual Ferrari fanboys will just love it because it has a donkey on the front...

Kevin2772 Report post Posted October 13, 2015 I don't know what it is about Ferrari, but I feel like the teaser images they release of their cars have oversized wheels and no wheel gap and spacers perhaps to make the car look more imposing with a better stance. Once the real thing comes out they never seem to look as good (ie the 488gtb). The pictures of this car behind the factory make the wheels look much smaller and unproportional.

Mondi Report post Posted October 13, 2015 The name alone kills it for me. TDF - garners its name from the Tour de France endurance races from the 60s/70s that Ferrari partook in. Ferrari is still living off their twilight years when they ruled the supercar market. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smash Boy Report post Posted November 29, 2015 770HP is awesome, too bad it's front engine and looks like a corvette.... The F12 came out about 18 months before the Corvette, so shame on GM for copying Ferrari. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

capt_chaos Report post Posted December 15, 2015 Been reading up on the details of this car and frankly it is a beast. Wider front tyres than the rears, lots of electronics, we are now at the eurofighter stage where a product is designed to be awkward and the onboard systems adjust it to work.

Looks awfully busy to me. Will reserve judgment until I see it in real life. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin2772 Report post Posted December 15, 2015 I didn't have volume watching the video because im at the office...but are the front tires really wider? That seems like it would look just akward to me. And have any other cars ever done that? or is this the first to use the tactic of a wider front trac?

Saleenfan Report post Posted December 16, 2015 To be brutally honest no new Ferraris really do it for me though. The FF has a quirky coolness to it but its definitely not a looker but the TDF just was way to much busyness on an already busy base design.
