  • In this video, Romans International Chairman Paul Jaconelli talks about his experience swapping his Ferrari F12 Berlinetta for a new Ferrari 812 Superfast.
    Ferrari F12 Berlinetta For Sale:
    www.romansinternational.com/u...
    Berlinetta directly translates as “little saloon”, this car is certainly not a saloon, but the name is fitting as the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta is a “littler” car than its predecessor the 599 GTB. Thanks to this slightly smaller stature and an aluminium space frame chassis, developed in partnership with Scaglietti, the kerb weight and centre of gravity have been lowered significantly, helping towards this car’s spectacular performance figures.
    This front mid-engined supercar from Fiorano is powered by a monstrous and unapologetically brutish 6.3L V12 engine developing no less than 731hp. These Italian ponies are all sent to the rear wheels through the rapid F1 DCT gearbox and well refined electronically limited slip differential. On its release the F12 was the most powerful road going Ferrari ever made and the car has won numerous awards including being named “The Supercar of the Year 2012” by Top Gear Magazine and winning the “International Engine of the Year Award 2013” for “Best Performance Engine” and “Best Engine above 4.0 Litres”.
    Cutting edge aerodynamics developed from the 599XX and Ferrari F1 programmes were used in the F12, including the Aero Bridges on the front flanks creating down force. In addition, the F12 receives active brake cooling ducts, opening when the brakes are hot to provide a flow of cold air and otherwise remaining closed to help with smoother air flow around the front bumper. This car then, has the brains to back up the brawn of that epic V12. Overall the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta provides beautiful Italian styling, exhilarating performance and an intoxicating exhaust note, all characteristics that set this car up as a highly collectible, future classic, Ferrari.

    Nicest people I've ever met in a car dealership. They recently let myself and my family look at all the cars in he showroom no questions asked, and told us a bit about every car including the amazing la Ferraris. When I can afford a supercar I'll be back thank you again romans

    "Here's loads of money on the carbon. This carbon is green, so it's shedloads of more money. Onto the rear of the car - Again carrying on the theme of more money. OK, so onto the interior. Here we've got a money lined seat with money stitching and moneycantara lining."

      I know I din't get it. All these supercars no-one can drive. They don't want to put miles on them because they will depreciate to much. Might swell just get a large scale model of them because all they do is look at them. 0-60 in? ohh no don't want to put a mile on it to check.

    My father and grandfather were both very close to a Father Jaconelli. A priest from Cumbernauld. He’s long dead now but he was a huge Celtic fan and went to the games with my Dad and Grandad back in the 60s. Also being a fan of all things green, I’m sure he would have loved those 2 beautiful green Ferrari’s.

    Fantastic video - I love the green exteriors and it's great to see a non red Ferrari. I find the F12 and 812 are quite colour sensitive and look better in a non red anyway unless it's a very dark red. I'm not totally convinced about the F12 interior...but as you say it's not to everyones taste and it might a grower. Really enjoyed the interview.

  • @sv3351
    @sv3351 Před 4 lety +2

    One of the worst financial options to make is to high spec a non special edition car. Like the 812 and an f12. Unless they don't get driven like these do they lose their value and all that money was a waste. Having a high spec tdf or gto makes sense because those cars are a high value special edition.

  • @khotsobogacvwi7434
    @khotsobogacvwi7434 Před 4 lety +2

    Top specsz👌🏽 That spec on the F12 just reaffirms how better looking the F12 is than the 812. I’d have a 812 in that color with its interior spec but with the stripe similar to that on the F12 Just because it’s a newer and more gentle model between the 2.

    Beautiful cars. I wish they had miles on them. I love Ferrari but I'm disappointed when they don't get driven. Rich people trying to get richer. The F12 under 1,000 miles is a shame. I'll probably never own one but if if I do I'll drive the daylights out of it and not go broke. Not driving these master pieces is sad. Looking at them is nice. Driving them would be better. #FRI #Bougie I do appreciate the content and beautiful cars. I would have never seen them without this video so thank you for that. #DDE

  • @marknorton5951
    @marknorton5951 Před 4 lety +6

    Hard to believe that F12 has covered less than 1000 miles. So when “dad” says “I hope the next owner enjoys it as much as I have”, the truth is he’s hardly driven it! Wild horses wouldn’t make me choose such an extreme spec, you need to like green. With that level of personalisation possible, just because you can doesn’t mean you should. I’ve just specified an F8 Spider - blu corsa over crema.

    • @miguelmc2289
      @miguelmc2289 Před 4 lety

    • @marknorton5951
      @marknorton5951 Před 4 lety +4

      Amuses me too that “Dad” thinks the signatures are great but can’t even say the former CEO’s name properly. Luca Cordero de Montezemolo. Pity he’s now associated with a discount railway service. Hey, this video is nothing more than a promotional video to shift the F12. My rule of thumb is that customisation is worth nothing at resale time and might even count against you.

  • @baddazzgarage2953
    @baddazzgarage2953 Před 4 lety +2

    In general the f12 is by far the better looking car ! Especially the rear! The 812 has something wrong but cant explain it to look at! The rear lights are wrong the rear single lights on the f12 are far better looking! Even the front lights aren't right on 812! And in 20 years time the f12 will be a classic but the 812 will be forgotten! Just my opinion!! 🚘

    The car is absolutely fantastic. However it is a shame it is not used and much more the video is concentrated in "how much that and these" instead of "how passionate and happy it makes me feel". It is more much nicer to see a car well used and enjoyed, otherwise is just a pretty thing. Money (as well of these cars) do nothing if you don´t do anything with it. Go out and drive please!

    You should have no trouble selling the F12 at that price. In the US, yours wouldn't be that much more than average one, and yours is exceptional, a one of a kind, very desirable with lots of options, signed, with low miles, not to mention this video does a great job of marketing it. I'd be surprised if it isn't sold by the time I post this.
