    This is the new Ferrari.

    It is the successor to the Ferrari 599. Their new 12 cylinder beast produces 740 hp which is more than any other Ferrari. Its top speed is 211mph making this the fastest Ferrari ever built.

    Wow. Are they using a turbo or supercharger to get the 740 hp? That's a great pic. I would love to see those lines in person. What kind of 0-60 numbers are they claiming?

    The F12 berlinetta can accelerate to 62 mph in 3.1 seconds apparently which is probably true and sounds extremely fast. I cant find any information on if its turbo-charged or super-charged but either way its a very powerful motor and Ferrari claim it is the fastest and most powerful Ferrari ever built.

    That new ferrari looks amazing, I'd definitely would sell my own soul to just even ride it for a brief moment. It just looks astonishing with its appeals and to be honest, the speed performance is just amazing like hell.

    It is all naturally aspirated Ferrari are not big fans of using turbochargers and stuff the cars acceleration would be uneven.

    I would prefer it to be naturally aspirated the engine response is tons better. They 700Bhp from naturally aspirated that must be amazing.

    Wow; nothing better than a fine Italian sports car. That is just so gorgeous; I don't think I have ever seen a woman that looks so good.
