Our new car: Ferrari Berlinetta F12

Ferrari Berlinetta F12 is a real Ferrari. The Ferrari F12 is the replacement for the 599 GTB and with its 730hp engine is by far Ferrari’s fastest road car to date. All that horse power comes from the 6.3-litre, V12 front mounted engine that can reach a top speed of over 210 mph and is channelled through to the wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox.

The F12 has an aluminium shell, with panels sculpted according to Ferrari’s unique ‘aerodynamics via subtraction’ philosophy. Scaglietti, who built the F12’s monocoque under-body used 12 different aluminium alloys to enhance torsional rigidity (increased by 20 per cent) whilst keeping the overall weight down to a very respectable total of 1525kg.

The F12 is a gentleman’s Ferrari first and foremost, one that couples ridiculous power with impeccable road manners, delivered with utmost civility and finesse. It’s far from the most overstated two-seater to ever hail from Maranello; those bragging rights will likely be reclaimed by the “new” hybrid-powered Enzo, which is rumored to churn in the neighborhood of 850 horsepower and will surely look like a carbon fiber origami alien ship.

If you want to drive a real super car Ferrari Berlinetta is the right pick.
