812 Superfast

[r23ves]

Put 20k deposit down for an 812 last week. Dealer was clear they couldn’t guarantee allocation but after reading this thread and seeing the order book was closed last July looks like I’ve got no chance?

My dealer told me they are sold out for the entire production run, to the end of 2022 or 2023.

Similar things are always said at the start of the run of a new model, often this changes all the time.

With the present global economic indicators who knows where the world will be in two years time let alone five?

the idea of waiting until 2023 for a car is nuts imo

I see in other press articles that there is a 812 based special edition - 812 Monza - potentially a convertible due to be announced Sep 17th... although, I’d hazard a guess that it’s already sold out by now.

read that too - from memory somebody posted it is only a mid double digit number of cars ..... so unless you (at least) own a LaFerrari Aperta and or an XX car, I suspect you won't be on that particular list (and they would have called you with your invite to the presentation by now)

Exactly, if you ain’t been invited to the preview next month, you won’t be on Ferraris list for a potential offer of an allocation.

hi all- i have a q1 next year 812 order- was offered £50k for it today. Is that a fair price? I have an f12 and really dont want to have to sell it to fund an 812!

Ferrari has forgotten more than you know when it comes to people selling slots. They also have a tendency to read online posts (FChat in particular). Your slot would not difficult for them to find given you're obviously from the UK, and it's due Q1. They would pull your slot without hesitation. Not to mention the reaction of your dealer if they see your post, they'll be held responsible by the factory, which I understand, makes root canal seem fun. Good luck.

i guess i will take it then but already mourning my f12!

as Camlet pointed out, I would delete the above post if I were you (and then I would ask Camlet nicely to delete the quoted section of his post)

Having said that, if you don't want the car and want to keep the F12 - then just do that. No need to take a car you don't really want (btw I prefer how the F12 looks). 812 is very impressive to drive though - amazing how it feels much lighter than it is
