The car was announced yesterday as the replacement model for 599. It's got the 6262cc V12 engine producing 730hp and 690Nm of torque. It has a dry weight of 1525kg and does 0-62mph in 3.1 seconds, 0-124mph in 8.5, with a top speed of 211mph (around 340km/h).

Absolutely stunning looking car. And Ferrari's you normally have to see them in real life, so it only gets better.
Check out the little F1 hint on the back of the car. Not sure if I like that.

In my opinion Ferrari are losing their way on the styling front. The 458, I think is the best looking car in the world. Alongside the 599 and Cali the Ferrari line up was stunning. But the FF and this, lets hope its because they are putting all the effort into the F2012

I think it's a stunner. Worthy competition for whatever McLaren plans to introduce this summer. =D>

The rain light is pretty silly, but I can forgive that. Is that a huge panic brake on the passenger side?

It's too modern for my tastes especially with the trend of uberlarge wheels, but whatever.

For real! That's taking things just a bit too far.

Otherwise, it's all right, I suppose.

I also think they're doing a disservice to the cars with an overall styling philosophy that proves to make them look outdated after only a couple of years on the market.

Even the name is throwaway. Who would lust after an F12 in 2013?

They got the 458 just right, but otherwise...

The back of the F12 looks like a Lotus Elise.

On the other hand, I bet it drives like a champion. That might just be the only thing that really matters, too.

(Nah, this is a road car; everything matters.)

It's terribly ugly. I'm sure it drives fine, but something inside me tells me that an Aventador would beat it around a course or in a straight line

They almost got it right, a bit redesign of rear end and relocation of engine would make it a perfect

Ferrsche F911

Most interesting parts of that car are for me the aerodynamics.
They have managed to have a cw value of 0,299 while still have enough downforce using an air bridge and a blown diffuser according to their website.

Oh and it's 740hp, not 730 @ the OP.

If you've ever seen a Ferrari of the 250, 275 or 365 serie you would understand this does not look like a lotus elise.

Not my cup of tea. Especially from the front.

Between the fixed grin of the grill and the idiotic headlights - complete with eyeshadow and stick on jewels - it looks like a 13 year-old that's spent a little too long posing for her facebook profile picture.

It also reminds me of a puffer fish.

Bring back the more masculine designs of the late 80s, early 90s.

Ferrari cars get uglier each new model. Last beautiful one was F430 and before that F355. What a shame...

Feminine looks aside....

Come on guys all things considered.. if you compare it to the f2012 on track.. they didn't do a bad job ?

Humps and step nose could have been added
