This is what 730 Naturally Aspirated Hp look Like
After revealing its new fastest road going machine two days ago, Ferrari released a picture of its 65 degree V12 engine. And as always, the engine its self is a wonderful piece of art.
Ferrari F12 Berlinetta Revealed!
Not convinced by its looks? Don't worry, the most interesting part lies under the front hood. A 730 Hp naturally aspirated ferrari V12! And according to Ferrari that makes it the new fastest (road going) Ferrari ever built, outperforming cars like the Enzo and the 599 GTO. What makes the F12 Berlinetta a very fast machine is its aerodynamically optimized body and its relatively low weight of 1525 Kg, especially compared to its predecessor. Its body is also 20% more rigid and generates a downforce of 123 Kg at 200 km/h. The F12 Berlinetta hits 100 Km/h in 3.1 seconds and has a top speed of 340 Km/h. Perhaps one of the most interesting parts is the Active Brake Cooling, "...a system that opens guide vanes to the brake cooling ducts only at high operating temperatures".

Pick of The Day: Bingo Sport Black Ferrari F40
I think i wrote too much about the Ferrari F40 that i can't find the words anymore to express all my love and my passion for this car (besides the fact that i'm not a native english speaker). This gorgeous black machine is Bingo Sport's take on the almighty F40. Exept the black paint job and the black rimsthere's nothing really new because there's actually nothing that needs to be changed about this car... Enjoy the pics!
VIDEO: Flame Spitting Ferrari F40 in Japan
Watch this Ferrari F40 spitting flames while going through a tunnel in Japan. If you have the adequate equipement, this video is available in HD 1080p and even in 3D. Click past the jump to watch the video. Simply gorgeous.
Nice View!
Sorry for not posting for so long but i had to replace that wrecked F40 in the front page by something nicer...
What about three F40's and an F50 as a bonus? Not so sure what the black F430 is doing in this wonderful shot though...
Good Morning
Here's your daily dose of timeless design, thanks to the talents of Kevin McCauley. You might prefer a wide screen version, so you can use it as a desktop wallpaper, but i believe the photographer chose these settings for a very specific reason. I love it!
Your Daily Dose of Timeless Design
If you've been visiting this blog relularly, you would have noticed my obsession with the F40. So if you want to share my obsession, here's a high res picture of the Italian masterpiece in all its glory.
Unveiled: Ferrari 458 Spider
Here it is, the long awated Ferrari 458 Spider in all its glory. It features a beautifully engineered folding hard top similar to that of the Superamerica. The clever part is, when the car is running topless, the folding top rests under a beautifully sculpted piece of metal that once was the engine cover. This allows the top to stay perfectly clean while not in use but the bad part is that the 562Hp V8 is no longer visible. Designing a spider version of the Italia requires some chassis thoughening in order to compensate the missing roof but the car kept an overall dryweight of 1430 Kg (3153 pounds with racing seats and forged wheels) which is far above any other convertible from the same category.
When it comes to performance, the 458 Spider packs out the same amount of prancing horses as the coupe with similar performance numbers: 0 to 100km/h (62mph) in less than 3.4 seconds and a top speed of 320 Km/h (198 mph). Power is sent to rear wheels through a 7-speed dual-clutch F1 transmission. Check out the high res pictures below as well as a short HD video showing the hard top folding mecanism in action.
One-Off Ferrari Superamerica 45
Here's a very special way to celebrate 45 years of owning prancing horse models: asking Ferrari to build a one off version of the already gorgeous 599GTB. That's what New York collector Peter Kalikow did. And the result is truly stunning. The one-off model called Superamerica 45 will be publicly unveiled this weekend at the annual Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este in Italy.
The supercar borrows some design elements from the 599GTO like the rear diffuser and the front bumper but it features unique design elements like the double air vents on the front wheel arches, a radically modified rear end with a rotating carbon fiber top featuring a similar mecanism to that of the Ferrari 575 Superamerica and body colored wheels. And in case you were wondering, the cars'color is called Blu Antille, a color used for another bespoke Ferrari model for the same owner.
Delicious!
A Piece of History: Ferrari 350 Can-Am
Based on the Ferrari 330 P4 le Mans Race car from 1967, the Ferrari 350 Can-Am was not particularly successful in the so named championship. But that doesn't stop the fact that it looks absolutely gorgeous. This beautifuly sculpted prancing horse racer represents the Italian maker's not so successful effort to join the big boys of the Canadian American Championship in the late 60's like the Chevrolet powered McLaren M6A. It's a little bit sad that such a beautiful machine didn't see the days of glory.
Eternal beauty
After what can be described as an historic revolution against dictatorship in my country Tunisia, i'm glad to be back to this place where i can share automotive articles with other car enthusiasts. My choice: this beautiful dark blue Ferrari F40. You can watch the italian masterpiece being driven like it should in the video below.
