Default Ferrari F12 on ADV05 MV2 SL

The Ferrari F12 is one of Ferrari's most insane successors of all time. How do you top the 599 GTO? The easy answer is to build the next one with more power, more toque and give it a name that when spoken reminds you of jet fighter airplane. Ferrari has done just that! The F12 Ferrari has killer good looks and with 730hp under the aluminum bonnet it surely has the bite to back up it's charm. If there are two things that could be added to this engineering masterpiece it's a nice drop and just the right set of wheels. We worked with the boys at ADV.1 Wheels to choose and place the perfectly fitted set of ADV05 MV2 SL in 21x9.5 and 22x12 in dark bronze finish. Nothing else is left to be said. She's a 10/10.

The F12 is one of the most beautiful cars in the world. This is an amazing sample. Although, being that low it would get thrashed in my area.

Now that would be the ultimate dirvers F12. I agree its amazing because of the last gated 6 speed Ferraris we saw was 575 Monerellos which are now being hunted by Ferrari collectors. They have just jumped to 250k.

I should have picked up a 575 6 speed manual a few years back when they were just over 100K.

I still want one. And Ferrari made 6 599 GTB manual trans cars that are worth over 600K now.

Yes I know the feeling back in high school I had an 94 red on red ZR1 and a 89 Porsche targa sold both when I should have kept them.

Thats right I forgot about the 6 speed 599 which they old made around 50. Of course them being the rare breed they pricing just keep shooting up. We will be seeing allot of this type of market for 5 6 speed manual exotics since Porsche has officially killed the 6 speed with their no option for a manual GT3 and GT3Rs. So wrong since they were only manuals just until the 997.

I won't argue about autos and DCTs current advantages over manuals - they have proven to be quicker for obvious reasons. However, the connection you get to a car with this much passion and a manual cannot be replicated by any modern DCT or auto.

History has shown that the desirable sports cars always end up being the manuals, and here it is repeating itself.

Bet you can guess which big HP Corvettes will command the higher prices in 30 years

I got a chance to sit in an F12 and fire it up on the showroom at Ferrari Palm Beach. When I win the powerball, I'm getting one of these. In the meantime, the F430 will suffice.
