I've just had a email from a dealer about a car they have for sale, and it's one of the best looking cars I've seen, I don't usually go for yellow, as if it's a dull day, they always to me seem a little flat, but the F12 is so gorgeous, even in yellow, I want it's babies!..

I am in no way connected to the car, although I might think about buying it, but here is the link. If the mods aren't happy, please feel free to delete the thread, but I don't have any personal pictures of the car and I think it needs to be seen.

Absolutely stunning! Love yellow Ferraris. If you can, you definitely should. I was on the look-out for a yellow 599 but feared I might die waiting for one to come up for sale! So I bought a black one smile

That's a particularly nice yellow too on the car in the link. The triple layer pearl effect one!

I loved my 599, Grigio silver stone, but when a 458 came up I had to let her go, a shame, the V12 is such an awesome engine!

I promised myself the 458 would be the last one I buy, but it is so tempting, and this advertised one is stunning

You'll probably be safe as long as you don't go and look at it.....or heaven forbid drive it. In my experience, that's the moment when any semblance of willpower flies straight out of the window! smile

Oh I know, so do the dealers, I'm about the easiest sale ever, at one time they would phone me 'hey steve, you should see this car we got in', I'd drive down, leave my car and drive home in the new one! Nutter

Drove the F12 when it first launched, my god, what a car, feels totally unlike 599, more like a mid engined car, it was awesome. Only the trade in value at the time made me think twice, and the fact the spec of the one I drove ran to £260something!

The F12 is such a significant step over the 599, and I really like the fact it's narrower which makes it much more nimble and usable, especially in towns.

It certainly feels smaller and more wieldy

I have to confess I am not keen on yellow cars, a bit shouty.

I do like the F12 shape, though at the back I always get this image of it wearing a thong like Peter Stringfellow, which is unfortunate.

So a boring dark grey / black one for me then please. I know, no balls ...biggrin

The yellow certainly helps demonstrate the peaks and troughs of the design, I have to say, I really do like it. Never ever fancied a yellow car of any kind before, despite a yellow murcie I had for a short while.

The F12 is gorgeous once Touring have reworked it into the Berlinetta Lusso. Then it's spectacular

I deeply love the F12 however not in that colour.

The only yellow that I like on a car is the Liquid Yellow you could (maybe still can?) buy Renaultsport cars in.

For me yellow only works on wilder more 'out there' design of car, something like an Aventador for example where the yellow just enhances the drama of the car.

Love the F12, but given the choice would go for one in a darker colour which suits it more.
