What a mess.

It MUST look better in the metal.

Poor thing has had its heart ripped out and replaced with an electric one.

Black plate with a green sticker. Incongruous!

[smithyithy]

Lovely colour, but its prettier predecessor in the background doesn't help it (IMO)

I rather like that and for a daily driver in London I reckon its rather desirable. I would have one alongside my IC powered cars.

A part of me believes this is sacrilege, but I'm coming round to the acceptance that in the future many examples of cars such as this will disappear from the roads altogether unless they can be repurposed.

And choosing between that and, say, a Spectre would be quite easy.

Glad to see it got a parking ticket. Even the most beautiful cars have to adhere to the rules of the road.

I like that a lot. A nod to the Daytona with that visor on the front end.

I don't like it at all but each to their own.

Would be interesting to see one next to an original Daytona for an idea of scale and proportion ....

Having seen one recently, I reckon the new one is around a foot longer, wider and taller than the Daytona.

For those of us not on social media, someone needs to post all of those in a thread. Would love to see them all.

RHD F40

A certain, dealer has seemingly a massive announcement coming out this evening.
I wonder has it anything to do with all of these pictures surfacing ?

I forgot what this was named , I had to look on Ferrari's website to remind me .

The rubbish name of 12 Cilindri ,was that the best they could do ?

Haven't seen one yet so unsure on whether it's like or dislike

[Doofus]

To be fair, they always used to name their cars after engine characteristics, so this is a bit of a return to form.

ETA: but yes, it's a silly name.

[Its Just Adz]

I think they are celebrating the fact they can still build the naturally aspirated v12 with no hybrid assistance.
It won't last much longer.

Front end looks like a homemade add on to accommodate whipping out a V8 and stuffing in a V12. If designed this way to disguise the length of the front end, hmm...

I do think theres some kind of friendship between DK and the BRF. They've handled several of their former cars over the years.

They handled the sale of McLaren F1 005 from the BRF to Chris Evans* some time ago

Evans sold it a while ago to Irish businessman JP McManus.

(*AIUI Evans was part of a small consortium who purchased the car together. But for brevity I'll say CE was the owner)

I thought we had already determined that these photos were taken more than 20 years ago? Probably longer for the grey RHD F40, because I saw it here in the UK in the 1990s.
