Re: Ferrari F12 Berlinetta / 599 GTO Successor
JoeRockhead:If they could sort out the rear end on the new Vette it would really help. It looks great from the front and sides but the rear is kind of over done IMHO.
Also the interior is... 
Not sports car worthy.

Re: Ferrari F12 Berlinetta / 599 GTO Successor
I was just admiring Z06 in a parking lot and I was not the only one. The styling is really stunning. When you consider the car would spank most if not all the 911's it is quite a car.
However, I agree with Joe that the back needs some work. But has anyone looked at the rear of a Cayenne? From behind it could be a Tourig or Mazda.

Say Goodbye to the Ferrari F12berlinetta
http://www.thedrive.com/news/3168/say-goodbye-to-the-ferrari-f12berlinetta
Update: Ferrari North America has reached out to The Drive, informing us that the end of F12berlinetta production has not yet been determined and that deliveries of the car will continue throughout the year.
If your hopes of Powerball victory this week include ordering up your very own Ferrari F12berlinetta, well, maybe you should spend that lottery ticket money on a Milky Way, instead. Ferrari, it seems, has once and for all closed the order books on the F12berlinetta.
The news comes from the Prancing Horse-obsessed Internet junkies over on the FerrariChat forum, one of the more reliable sources of Ferrari-based news on the web. According to multiple users—many with a sterling reputation in the community—the carmaker issued a letter to dealers in early April informing them to stop accepting new orders for the V-12-powered two-seater.
The news may be sudden, but it makes sense. Rumor suggests that Ferrari will unveil a new two-seat V-12 model early next year, most likely around the 2017 Geneva Motor Show. After all, the F12 originally debuted almost a year to the day after the V-12 FF, and that car just received the mid-life facelift that transformed it into the GTC4 Lusso.
The F12berlinetta is made in smaller numbers than "volume" sellers like the 488 and California T, so it's reasonable to believe the car maker already has enough orders to last until the new car is revealed. Factor in the fact that Ferrari only has a limited amount of production capacity for 12-cylinder cars (the company has separate production lines for its V-8 and V-12 models), and that the aforementioned brand-new GTC4 Lusso is expected to monopolize much of that production for the next few months, and the decision to let the F12 putter out starts to make sense.
If the GTC4 Lusso is anything to go by, the F12berlinetta's "replacement" will probably be closer to a mid-cycle refresh than a full-blown new car. Expect a few more ponies out of the 6.3-liter V-12, a few new bits of tech, and a fairly comprehensive design update both inside and out. Oh, and it'll probably have a new name that makes exactly zero sense, because Ferrari chucked its old (and better) naming convention out the window about 30 years ago.
Re: Ferrari F12 Berlinetta / 599 GTO Successor
Orders did stop almost a month ago. I don't understand why Ferrari is bothering to deny it. They still can't give up their shady ways of conducting business even after the iPO.
Anyway, There's many brand new ones available for sale with a nice discount. Not to mention the plethora of slightly used ones.
