The 512 is a v12, Its also one of the ugliest Ferrari's ever built. The 250, 275 & Daytona get my vote, aswell as the F40 and for some reason the 599. But hey, your welcome to your own opinion, apart front the flat 12 v12 thing.

@VKQueenVamp He could smoke that M3 that was in front of him if he wanted to but would have troubles with the 360.

The Ferrari 512 Series 1974 - 1996 are the benchmark and standard for which all other supercars are compared to. The only other benchmark car was the Lamborghini Countach from 1974 - 1989.

good group with an interesting panel of cars

Man that looks like so much fun! Wow. You seem to wind it out in 2nd gear too much. Change up and go for it. Very nice experience. Wish I was there in person. Do you have a car club?

You can't beat the timeless lines, and sexy curves of a 512TR!!
It is in a class of it's own - along with the 288 GTO.
These cars a so wide and low to the ground. Truly exotic!!!!!

I jizz my pants everytime I see a noble m12, all sweet cars!
Well, technically it is a V-12. It is a 180 degree V-12 with 270 degrees crankshaft phasing. A flat or "boxer" engine has 180 degree crankshaft phasing. Meaning all the pistons on one side of the engine move together, and visa-versa for the other side. This is where the term "boxer" came from, because the whole engine is punching from side to side, unlike a V-12 whose pistons reach TDC at 3 different times per cylinder bank. Sorry, it would take much more room to fully explain.

The 512 TR is not a V12, buddy, its a flat 12, the last Ferrari ever made, in fact. Other than possibly a F50GT, this is my favorite Ferrari. It has the looks, the speed, and the pedigree (sp?). I don't care about tuned Supras or Veyrons or Ultimate Aeros, this car is the embodiment of supercar. Masterpiece.
