This is a beautiful car. Very Rolex style design, will look good even after 20 years or so...

Very nice review along with pictures. Btw, how much do they cost?

Thanks bro! Yes it was definitely worth the wait...but I want more now.

Thank you! Yeah the design really is timeless. The dealer was asking somewhere in th 130s for the GTC and mid 90s for the non-GTC car.

a modern Ferrari V12 and on top of that a tubi...simply amazing...you should have made an audio recording of that beast! What an experience! Also, did the back end break loose at all during the hard acceleration in first girl? With all that torque, I bet it got a bit squirrely.

The V-12 sounded great with the Tubi but it wasn't as loud as the V-8s with Tubi's. The idle was a nice deep rumble. The rear-end did get loose very easily under hard acceleration in first...luckily didn't do that in second.
