Killing Tires With a Ferrari F12 // CHRIS HARRIS ON CARS

Five sets of tires, a 740hp Ferrari V12 Berlinetta and the most beautiful circuit in Europe. Yes baby!

[@carlos64030]

I first saw this video when it originally debuted back in 2013. Back then, I thought it was the greatest automotive video I had ever seen. I periodically throughout the years watched it over and over again. Here we are in 2021, 7 years later, and I STILL think this is the greatest automotive video EVER! The fantastic driving, the incredible cinematography, the beautiful scenery around Anglesey and that incredible exhaust note will make this video reign supreme for years to come!

[@dexon777]

yeah so well done tbh

[@Sharcks41]

Absolutely the same

[@k3corvette35]

Couldnt say it better myself !! Ive been influenced by Mr. Chris Harris's videos for years now as well. So much so, that I sold my 2010 Evo X that was a great car and modified perfectly for my taste and JUST HAD TO BUY a BMW M2after watching his thrashing of it in the two videos he featured on the newest and GREAT baby Mcar the M2 ! Wanted a 1M but wasn't willing to pay $15k to $20k mire then a M2 at the time !! Just hope he keeps making these videos with ICE piwered cars well after we get forced i to EV's !! Which i could go into a tangent over the BULLSHIT we're being fed about those, but thats not why I replied. Just had to say how much o agreed with your opinion! Stay safe on the roads my friend & 🏁🏎__________💨 lay down some long blackies out of the corners regularly! ✌🇺🇸🗽Long live the ICE !!!!!!!!

[@robertkrupa3223]

Iust have seen it a 100 times by now and still love it! Chris Harris, go back to the roots!!!!!

I don't get how this car looks ugly, I read a couple articles saying this is the ugliest Ferrari ever made and stuff like that, I don't get how tho? I think this one of the BEST looking Ferrari's ever made, does anybody have an explanation?

[@internetkilledthemediastar2604]

Yes, they are shit journalists. Why no longer care what they think, or say anymore. Magazines are dying.

[@pengouin]

well i think the F50 is still one of my favorite but this one is easely in my top 3 ferrari

[@Gregorypeckory]

Just someone's opinion. Doesn't matter.

[@johnydangerously1]

This is certainly one of the best looking modern Ferraris. I'm a bit partial to the 458 as far as looks go, but this is a handsome car.

[@adrian9098]

This thing is a bit ugly actually. I saw one in person and it was stunning as hell but in my opinion not as refined and purebred as a 599

...enough about Chris...lets give some credit to the film-crew, sound-crew and editor as well. This is an all-around, first-class presentation! "...you get my drift, do you?"

[@BollocksUtwat]

With all due respect to his F40 vs F50 video, this is probably his single greatest one off car video. I don't think anything sums up his supercar review style better than this and the cinematic style is the best ever, period, so hats off to Niel. That single lap with the over the shoulder and the mixed exterior shots split top to bottom is the best single drifting take he's published and the outro over beautiful slow mo shots with the angelic music... its like this is what millenials have instead of car posters on their walls.

[@sglectures5523]

100% agreed... with P1 being a solid #2.

[@machusi1989]

[@charliedesperado8262]

I legit got emotional at the end of this when you said "There's nothing the world needs less..and there's nothing I want more".. You're not the only one Chris.. you're not the only one my friend. It's my dream car.

[@bbhoustontx]

everyone's dream car you mean.

[@TheWalrus0608]

The combination of noises from that high revving V12 and insanely fast shifts are the best sounds not made by a woman.

[@richardhammond9757]

I have never seen Chris this much happy & For me personally I still preferred F12 over 812 anytime, not just for 812 even over any automobile F12 is the perfect car of all time best mix blend of modern technology & Ferrari's analogish DNA!

[@Kolzahn]

How is this even on youtube? This is the dirtiest porn I've ever seen.

[@AsifLicious]

"It's pretty much a 740 horsepower M3" wow that is one hell of a compliment! I reaaaaaally want one

[@rxklastz1770]

well me personally i think the heart of a car is the engine and i think that comparing this to a bmw m3 makes the bmw look like a small kid to compared to this. and i absolutely love this car as well

[@rickyscott89]

RXKLastZ1 Your think the heart of a car is the engine? Lol did you come up with that all by yourself?

[@alexmartinez280]

This sounds like the truest statement. My V8 M3 decatted and tuned has been the most amazing driving experience and still is to this day after 6yrs and 140k miles. The F12 and 599 have always sounded to me the EXACT same formula except on pharma grade drugs and a masters class at finishing school at the finest Italian school. Amazing complement to the best M car, the E92 M3.

[@michaelrettagliata435]

This video is the final decision maker on my purchase of and F12, let me say Chris is spot on!! There is just something special about the F12!! I drive it on street and track, no way to explain the feeling until you actually experience it and learn the car. It is an beast!!

Ruben van der Vliet I COMPLETELY agree, why don't we all just watch that again to really absorb the magic of Chris and the F12? -------------------> 10:28 (Being able to see the steering wheel, and the amazingly stable drifts almost let you know what a car is like! That's my dream car, to be able to drive just as well with the throttle, as with the steering wheel, it's like a drifting F1 car...just beatuful...).

[@bighaasfly]

Guys, I sat my not quite 1yr old daughter in my lap to watch this video one night when she was up late and fussy. I learned that Chris Harris and the song of the F12 was just what she needed to quiet her down. She was entranced. So much so that I took a selfie and posted it on FB. This morning that memory came back on my wall. I called that same little girl, now 5, and we sat snuggled up together and watched it all again. As before, she was charmed. Thank you again. From the car to Chris’ commentary to the stunning, sweeping scenery...this is without question the greatest car review video of all time. Nothing else is even close.

That was a lovely show. Very well done. Most of the driving other driving shows do is driving me nuts by not actually DRIVING the dang cars!! This was wonderful. Maybe even a bit short. At 13:47 I was like "huh? It's over? That's it? Awe man!!" You saved 4 sets of those tires for yourself then. You gotta post at least a couple more sets of tires on youtube lol. Also show me the tires. I'm not really believing the tires are gone in one lap. It took me 2500 miles to show threads on my Corvette. That was on the street though. 750hp after the big supercharger. I want to see the tires before you changed them. Very nice show. Loved it.
