Ferrari F12 Berlinetta

As you probably already saw, this post is going to be about the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta. This, like most Ferraris, is an exceptional car! This one is powered by a V12 engine producing 730 horsepower, which lets the F12 to get from 0-62 mph in 3.1 seconds. The V12 also lets this car get up to speeds of 211 mph. Another interesting thing about the F12 is the two gaps on either sides of the hood of the car which allow air to flow past the sides and therefore give the car much needed downforce at high speeds. Another cool thing is the two flaps in the nose of the car, in front of the two wheels. The flaps are closed, to improve aerodynamics, until the breaks reach a certain temperature. At temperatures where cooling is needed, the flaps open to provided air to the brakes so that they don’t overheat. Besides all this the car looks stunning as well and is incredibly fast. The only downside of this car is the price tag: about $322,000, which, needless to say, is quite a bit. But if you do have an extra 322 grand lying around and want a stylish V12 supercar, without the super aggressive look of the Aventador, take this one :)



Other than that I’ll let you convince yourself about the looks of this Ferrari, but if you do happen to have an extra minute I strongly recommend that you watch this video from Top Gear, where Jeremy Clarkson reviews the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta.
