I bought this car for it's 12 cylinder roar and excellent gas mileage. :p
Mileage is actually pitiful when you get on the gas in the city or country roads. I estimate about 7 mpg...lol

Lots of cars could get decent mileage, well so it's claimed, but no one will ever find out that owns one of those!
 
Model?
Euro version?
 
Wowww ! Enjoy & be safe .
 
Nobody talks about "gas mileage " in a race car. Laps per gallon ... that's the real question .
 
Love that color! Welcome to the club. Regarding gas mileage: I drive my 42mpg Honda back and forth to work so I "earn" my 14mpg Ferrari rides. Just one caution. This car is a beast and the eyelid pealing acceleration can be addictive. Be safe.

Thanks Cincy. Beautiful car....I almost bought a 2014 all Black F12 car last year. My 458 is pretty blacked out. If your getting 14 mpg, you must be on the highway in high gear ;). My usual first task of the day driving the car is to head out to the gas station...lol

Didn't consider it in Ferrari red ? Looks amazing all the same .
 
Spectacular. Enjoy in good health!
 
Nice ride & congrats.... but man, you sure don't keep them long.
 
Christian, Congratulations. Love the color. Did you keep the 458? And do you still have the Porsche SUV for the snow and getting to work?

I think you should save some gas and try the SAT tonearm and Goldfinger Statement. I mean, where are your priorities?

still have the 458. Plan on keeping that too. Very different but rewarding drive compared to the F12. The Cayenne is now parked outside for the daily chores.

As far as carts go, I just mounted my barely broken in Dynavector XV-1t cart. Going to listen to that for a while and give the Coralstone a break.
