Should you buy a Ferrari 612 Scaglietti?

I take a 612 for a quick drive and review why it is such a versatile car and how affordable they are now.
Here is more information on the car: themarket.co.uk/listings/ferr...

You were the only guy testing/showing the back seat sitting with your huge height :) Thanks man

[@SportsandGT]

You’re welcome. It’s pretty roomy in the back for average folk!

[@MrToddgibbs]

What a fantastic car, one of my favourite Ferraris! great video!

[@SportsandGT]

Thanks. Amazing value now too... for a Ferrari!

[@WunHungLo99]

Something needs adjusting on your audio settings to avoid the crackle/interference.

[@SportsandGT]

Yes, sorry, not sure if it’s the mic or the phone camera or both.

[@aramchomina-chavez-yx2tb]

great rundown of the 612. Beautiful car.

[@SportsandGT]

Thank you - I'm sure it won't be long before people "rediscover" its charms.

[@edwinblank58]

Enzo Ferrari once said: Only a V12 is a real Ferrari! He never liked the V6 and V8 engines.

[@SportsandGT]

Sounds about right. He wasn’t overly concerned with road cars at all, whatever engine. Racing was his life and passion.

[@sprezzatura8755]

I heard he only started building cars for public roads in order to fund his racing passion.

[@raulcarrasco3428]

Really good , only video that show how really are the rear seats

[@SportsandGT]

Thanks Raul - I am really dubious about most 2+2 cars because when I drive them, usually they are only 2+1 !

[@user-cb1wh5wn6f]

The major belt service that cost 6K two years ago now cost over 15K! Simply ripping people off at this point!

[@SportsandGT]

Ouch! Is that at independents too?

[@robertcomella8486]

I have an FF but also love the 612...would you recommend it in addition to FF or is it to similar

[@SportsandGT]

The FF was effectively the successor to the 612 so in that sense they play the same role. If you want RWD only and a more retro look the 612 is an attractive addition and well priced at the moment.

[@WMcSnickets-xw5om]

This is my dream car and i’m going to get it.

[@SportsandGT]

You could do much worse - it is a very capable car and pretty good value at the moment. Good luck.

[@nkagisengmogotsi4514]

I love this car

[@SportsandGT]

It’s appeal is growing on a lot of people!

[@timwilliams113]

What is metric horsepower?

[@SportsandGT]

PS as opposed to BHP - not much difference tbh

[@paul10018]

Hugely colour sensitive. Needs to be metallic paint and ideally darker hues. The classic red does it no favours whatsoever.

[@SportsandGT]

I agree. In person, the red didn’t look too bad but a dark blue would be my choice.

[@TP-3000]

As soon as my son is a bit taller I can chop in the Quattroporte

[@SportsandGT]

The 612 is a lot of Ferrari for the money but quite a bit more than a contemporary QP

[@TP-3000]

@@SportsandGT thanks for your concern but money is not an impediment

[@SportsandGT]

@@TP-3000 it’s not concern - probably envy! 😉

[@fabiocene]

No, Italians wouldn't say it like that.

[@SportsandGT]

Was I close? 😂
