The sound of 12 angry cylinders

Ferrari F12berlinetta

I want you to do me a favour please. You can trust me, you’ll like this one.

Close your eyes and picture yourself in the French riviera. Good start?

Now, imagine you’re behind the wheel of a Ferrari F12 berlinetta. Remember, it’s got a 544kW V12 engine. Getting better?!

You’re at the bottom of a very large hill, with a winding road and you’re pointing towards the summit.

READY, SET, GO!

What do you think that would sound like? Check the clip after the jump to find out…

Sounds ok, but there are much better sounding cars out there and better roads for them to be driven on too.

Ferraris of today don’t sound as good as they once did, even with after-market exhaust systems. I don’t exactly what they have changed with their engines (I would say firing order but I doubt that) but they just don’t sound as good any more.

The Highest and best use of this car is to enter it in the Carrera Panamericana, just like the old days. That owner will be a Star, even if he wrecks, like Phil Hill and Ritchie Ginther did.

Keep it on the track, Jack.
