It’s like 20k every 4-5 years, since new belts are stronger. You just have to not go bankrupt in that time.

It needs a belt service every 4-5 years, at a cost of around $10K. This car had that service done, plus many more items that are not frequently needed. A $10K service every 4-5 years works out to $2-3K a year in cost. If you can't afford $2-3K a year in running costs, you probably shouldn't be looking for a V12 Ferrari.

7:14 - the tach is designed so that redline is (nearly) straight up. This is a racing thing - you will see some racecars actually rotate their tachs so that redline is straight up to make it easier to know when to shift gear. But if they just stopped the tach at 7500, there would be an ugly blank space on the right side, so they added some more numbers just to fill it in.

4:26 Omg that cracked me up!

I think these look absolutely stunning if I’m honest I don’t see how anybody can dislike it

[@MultiWalrus1]

When the car came out I was put off by the front end treatment, that scoop carved into the bonnet with the ridges at the sides. It was designed to mimic older Ferraris and it felt to me like a bit of a throwback and overly nostalgic. I always thought the rest of the car looked good, and now that I consider the design, I think it's ageing pretty well.

[@gentlemanparrot]

That or the 599 GTO? Almost the same front end, different side profile and rear.

[@2jztheworld361]

I just like they went for a bold different design looks classy yet simple definitely not an ugly car

[@MultiWalrus1]

@@gentlemanparrot 599 has a much sharper look. I was blown away when that car came out. I consider it to be the first of the really great looking Ferraris of this modern era (post-2000s).

[@zioxei]

It looks about as generic as a sports car can get

[@decomposingman]

Didn’t think much of this car when I first heard of it, but I saw one in person in SF back in 2007 and I was hooked.

I have been in one of these before. The exhaust sound is pretty phenomenal IMO

Later models of the 612 were more modernized. Most had navigation and a glass roof that could brighten or dim with a dial on the ceiling.

[@napoleonwannafarte4963]

Actually one of my favorite cars. And I love the styling from day one

[@pajerofan22]

I just like the car because of how well IMO that they were able to blend the styling of the 550 and 599 so well together

I have always loved the look of a long front end. Like a Jaguar Type-E or a 70s Trans Am. The 612 makes me wish I could afford one.

[@itisicatosicarius1211]

i absolutely adore the looks of this car, what are you talking about Doug ? i had a poster of it when it came out on my door in my room.

[@nxvv]

Since three years I own a 612. It is a wonderfull and tastefully car. With the sports exhaust an incredible V12 sound.

Looks better than just about all other Ferraris from that era IMO - but needs a color like dark blue og dark green and some other wheels. The rare manual gated shifter would also be a huge plus.

Love the look of the FF and Lusso. This started the look.

I don't know if it's just because I know nothing about cars or what, but I think the 612 looks beautiful. I actually really like it! So much so, I looked it up on KZbin to watch videos about it. And mind you, I'm not really into cars lol. Cool video!

[@SonyFoLife]

I mean. I typically find beauty in cars that others may not. I own a mk5 Jetta, I think the juke nismo is quirky and neat, I think it looks okay. That being said, I actually *love* the styling on this car. Smooth flowing lines, great proportions, amazing exhaust note. New wheels, maybe some touches here and there and you'll have a really amazing looking car

I've loved this design ever since it came out. There is a clean surface aesthetic with cars of that era as compared to today's aero monsters, which gives cars like this a timeless design.
