I may well be out of step here but I will say it anyway; I just don't get it. The 612 is an extraordinary machine but it is a bit of a mess in IMO. The proportions are wrong. The bonnet is too long and a bit thick; the rear is a straight 550/575 copy, (which is no bad thing, but looks better on a 550/575) but it is too short for the front and the front is not their best design. I would much rather have a 550.

Ia lso like it alot...A think it's proportiond are spot on.........The grill and face is the worse bit tahts more about the silver grill..Say one with a dark grill and it looked better.....For me this looks better than a 599..that acr doesn't gell for me......The 612 is just not as in your face disco nutter ******* which I prefer...

I think it is Benny..To be honest I hated it when it came out.....so in about 5 years perhaps I will like the 599....

The 575 is supposed to be one **** of a car. When it is time for me to make a move I wouldn't mind a late 575 with handling pack with exceptionally low mileage and full history. It is the kind of car that I would hang on to for a long time especially when it achieves classic car insurance status. I need a 4 seater too though. I still think the 612 in the right colour combination looks awesome

I don't like that one either. Perhaps it is me that's out of step.




Nah. Bollox. They are both ugly and I'm the one in step!

Yellow does look rather nice, not sure in the flesh, may look a little imposing, not many V12 Ferrari's can pull off Yellow. Black looks nice but maybe ruins the lines of the car, Red is a no no, TDF Blue i do like along with Silver. Loving Silver on Ferrari's at the moment, especially the 458 with Tan leather.
