Outside I think it looks great, but inside I think it's way too modern and generic. It's fine, but to me it comes across as functional rather than beautiful.
Compare this to the interior of an F12. The F12 looked great when it was launched, it looks great now, and it'll look great in 20 years time; whereas I think this cabin will end up looking dated.

Agreed. Compare this to the interior of an F12. The F12 looked great when it was launched, it looks great now, and it'll look great in 20 years time; whereas I think this cabin will end up looking dated.

What the f
k is wrong with PH these days? Why does an article about a new V12 Ferrari have to include any references to hybrids and EVs?
Anyway, thank fk this isn’t electric or hybrid.
Erm.... because Ferrari now has 2 hybrid models, the Ferrari CEO said a while ago that 60% of their models will be hybrid by next year, so PH thought it was worth mentioning that this isn't hybrid as some people thought it might be. You know, to inform readers about the car.k is wrong with PH these days? Why does an article about a new V12 Ferrari have to include any references to hybrids and EVs?Anyway, thank f

That’s a beautiful car and not ridiculously priced. It’s just how do you get to buy one when Ferrari has their usual policy of offering cars to certain people only and even then you have to buy and keep other cars to get to the one you want
Spider will be half a million euros by the time its specced up to the usual amounts.In line with cars like the Revuelto but still well beyond reach for most.
Its not a limited edition model. You may have to wait several years to get one though.
Surprised at such retro nods on a production car, rather than some limited special.
The front is fine, but think rear would look nice being able to paint the black on the coupe and on the GtS the black just looks plain weird, seemingly serving no purpose.
(Photoshop magic anyone? See what they’d look like without)
Dislike the interior, especially this trend of dual screens for the passenger. Too fussy.

Despite being bowled over by the looks I suppose any imagined lottery win could be spent on an older Ferrari with a better interior.

Could of thought of a better name for it 
"I love it! What shall we call it"
"12 cylinders"
"Its perfect!"
I love the "does what it says on the tin" -ness of it. Like the Quattroporte. "I love it! What shall we call it"
"12 cylinders"
"Its perfect!"
Of course, that logic followed to the end will give us the Maserati Breakidowni and Ferrari FixiExpensivo.
No doubt it’ll be a wonderful steer but, sadly, the coupe looks like an all-too familiar cliché: a Chinese start-up‘s bland BEV GT concept. While the rear-end sets a new benchmark for (non-)style over substance.
Which is great for owners of F12s and 812s, hereafter known as “the last handsome Ferrari V12 coupes” – shurley their prices will now swiftly firm / rise?
Convertible 12C looks OK, but only if panel between headlights is body coloured. Wheels are bland, needs all-silver rims off an F12 TdF.
All-digital / touchscreen / haptic-only cabin represents cynical cost-cutting and, in turn, is downmarket compared to Aston, Lexus, McLaren, Pagani, et al – and the F12 / 812.
New V12 Vanquish, please. (And please don’t feck it up by merely producing a DB12 with a bodykit and an even bigger grille.)
