OT: Ferrari - Rear Wheel Steering

I don't doubt the capability of the F12 TDF; I'm sure it makes lots of downforce. Unlike other Ferraris, I just don't think it's particularly good looking. The fact that at 50 feet it could probably rather easily be mistaken for a Corvette isn't a big plus either, but that's just my biased opinion....

Yellow was not the best choice by the marketing department, as it draws even more comparisons to the very similar Z06, which has also been heavily marketed in yellow. I can't even think of any official Z06 marketing that wasn't in yellow. When I think Z06, I think yellow. Now when I think F12, I think Z06.

No offense to any of you previous poster's but we can all say "it reminds me of the Corvette", but for the few fortunate ones and I wish I was one, once you drive the F12 you will know that its not a Corvette or wont even care.

meanwhile back to Ferrari earth...I just installed my speciale wheels which brought the rubber out another 1/2" rather than using spacers. When my Novitec F1 mufflers come in in November, they will be installed along with exhaust valve controller and novitec sport lowering springs...drops the car 1 1/8".

I think the performance difference between the tdf and the standard F12 will be similar to the 991 GT3 and RS (i.e. modest) though the car will be lighter and more raw.

You have a great looking car, but all 458s need to be lowered to look right.
