Ferrari F12 Quick Review // Happiness On Tap

The Ferrari F12 Berlinetta ($379,866 CAD new, $319,995 USD new) was once considered by Ferrari to be their most powerful road car. A ferocious 6.3 L naturally aspirated V12 screams out 731 horsepower to a 8700 RPM redline. Thomas and James are more than eager to see what this piece of Italian engineering can do. Will it live up to the incredible spec sheet that it commands? Or will it be a more tame and subdued driving experience than one might expect? Watch to find out! Subscribe!
RELEVANT STATS:
6.3L naturally aspirated V12
731 hp

[@Powduhh]

For the uninitiated, the meme at the end is a reference to the Monaco GP F1 race this year. During a very exciting part of the race, the feed randomly cut to Lance Stroll cutting a corner, ensuring that the audience missed an excellent battle between Pierre Gasly and Sebastian Vettel.

[@ilikeexxs]

Thanks... I even watched that race and it was too meta for me

[@matthewjudge3763]

The only exiting part of the race. Lol

[@Affalterbach1967]

Also for including essential Canadian content before bill C-10.

[@muthukumaranc]

correction - only exciting part.

[@_TheElMan]

They do it on every EXTRA video... Way before Stroll meme

[@glamdring0007]

Putting an F12 on the Extra channel is like having Hotel California as a ring tone...it's just getting good when it's over.

[@unripetomato4312]

this analogy......could not have been more perfect. the more i think about it, the better it gets!

[@brandonramirez4542]

I definitely wanted more F12

[@aspiratedaloha2946]

‘‘Twas all too brief

[@leandrolien5961]

Perfect haha, I don't know what their data tell them but I sure would have no problem with older cars in the main channel, we already have tons of KZbinrs doing every new cars, if they have time, I would love to hear their vision on "older" cars, especially as I think older cars up to 2015 are more fun than today's cars.

Thanks for the explanation, I didn't even know it was a part of the video.

[@richardduquette315]

Thomas: "Are you OK?" James: "I'm fine" Also James: 😨

The fear on James face while Thomas was drifting the F12 is so authentic, I love it 😂

James calling his mum had me laughing so much I had tears in my eyes. Then Thomas looked panicked when he was the passenger. Thanks, I needed a laugh like this.

This "Extra" clip is much more enjoyable viewing than most channels' full-blown effort videos!

[@jamesengelsman9369]

Don't worry. We have some other serious Ferraris coming on the main channel. Try to keep in mind that if something is on the Extra Channel, it's because there are a variety of mitigating factors stopping us from posting it on the main channel: Time, Cost, Permissions, etc. If it weren't for ETH, we wouldn't be able to film these cars at all! Like the name, it's all extra. And we love that we can do it

I'm 65 going on 25 and I could probably surprise you guys with the sheer number of vehicles that I've driven whether I've owned them or rented them! That would be so much fun to compare notes! Here in Montreal I belong to an exotic car club where we get to drive supercars on a few weekends during the summer around a racetrack until your wrists and forearms hurt. Cheers 🍻
