    Re: Chris Harris review of Ferrari F12

    Despite a fantastically good car - I cannot shake off the feeling that he wants to make it up to Ferrari again for previous "disputes" he had with the brand....- fastest car he ever driven ? Veyron supersports ? Wonder what comments come after P1 etc broken heart

    1 set of tire per lap with ESC off comment is seriously funny thow

    I guess he was afraid he isn't going to be "invited" anymore by Ferrari. Smiley

    The F12 is a fantastic offer though, it wasn't easy to say "no" to this car. Smiley

    Quite frankly : having now 680HP in the GT2 - and not being Walter Roehrl (who's former 1988 Ruf CTR I've just sat in this week at a dealer in CH) I now understand when people like Clarkson say when they make comments like "this car constantly wants to kill you...." - it's fun to drive with some wheelspin but you have to know what you're doing and its much easier to drive the RS on a limit than a GT2 - although now the RS feels like it's running on 3 cylinders only indecision - I think it;s almost to much HP for 2 wheels...... - Dial back the HP and the weight and the fun is back.... - wonder how fast a F12 would be in the wet against much lower HP's cars....

    This is why I decided agains the 997 GT2 RS at some point and this is why I love AWD.

    People make mistakes from time to time...I love the safety cushion of AWD and PSM (unless I turn PSM off intentionally but then, I actually know what I am doing and I am prepared).

    I admire everyone who is willing to take the risks on a daily basis but I guess I'm too old. Smiley

    Glad you enjoy your car, how about some nice photos? Smiley

    The five sets of tires are actually the best proof that this car needs AWD. angry
