All I can say having had the 812SF for 18 months before the GTS is that the GTS feels just as quick, no bigger, and feels like the finished product
I prefer it massively but I regard it as a super GT not a sports car.
If you want Ferrari sports cars you go mid engine in my opinion.
I’ll report back later on how 812 Competizione fits in

You are just showing off mentioning the Comp Bertie 
Fair cop guv.
My point is though that either is crazy fast beyond anything you can use on the road, and they’re both Super GT not sports cars.
Also I suspect but of course don’t know how many people saying they wouldn’t want a GTS have driven and lived with one.
To me the GTS is twice the car the SF was, so letting st go for GTS was easy, and why I’m having a hard time deciding what to do when (clang!) Comp lands.

Gulf Stream V > 812 GTS

Go for a drive in the GTS Bertie and try to be happy.
Ah, it's an '90s model referance, I'm not into 30 year old aircraft to be fair.Gulf Stream V > 812 GTS

Anyway, back on cars...used the GTS yesterday and it reminded me why I love it so much.
Puts a big smile on my face, and that's what matters.

Firstly, I love cars, been my passion for ever, and I started this thread just because I was excited having just got my 812 GTS.
I know I’m very fortunate to have it, and have had my other stuff including the 812 Superfast.
Having been in this lucky position I honestly think the GTS takes everything the SF is and just adds to it, for me it’s the best car I’ve had.
I dont know who of the folks saying they prefer SF have actually driven a GTS?
I’ve never regarded a big V12 as a sports car, to me that’s the mid engined V8 role, so while I agree the GTS is slightly less intense dynamically, that makes it better to me, and being able to have the roof off and the noise I absolutely adore.
As I acknowledged, I will hold my hand up that the comment about the 812 Comp was partly willy waving, and if that offended anyone I apologise.
It was also founded in the genuine belief that from my experience of both I prefer the GTS over the Coupe, also the Comp it is the first limited edition model I have qualified for so I am very excited, and my Comp is a coupe (as I’m not a big enough dog to qualify for an Aperta) and so I am really torn with what to do with the GTS when the comp arrives.
Lastly, whilst I understood the intention of the G5 comment calling me out (fair enough), I honestly didnt know what a G5 was so it was a genuine question not just being a dick.
Finally….I wish I was skiing, in actual fact the heating in the office is bust and I’m freezing!!
