The Ferrari F12 Berlinetta was developed as Maranello’s replacement for the 599 GTB. The key areas of concentration and improvement were in outright speed, with the F12 fulfilling its mission in being vastly quicker than the 599 but also more pleasurable at low speeds, which was another key objective. To look at, the F12 is smaller in all directions and it weighs some 70kgs lighter than the 599. Performance-wise it produces significantly more downforce. The engine is a V12, 6262cc naturally aspirated behemoth, which produces 730 brake horsepower, making it one of the top five most powerful Ferrari road cars ever made. This allows the F12 Berlinetta to accelerate from 0-62 miles per hour in 3.1 seconds and to also achieve a top speed of over 211 miles per hour. The F12berlinetta was named “The Supercar of the Year 2012” by car magazine Top Gear. This fine 1:18 scale model of the F12 Berlinetta has been handcrafted and finished in our workshops using detailed colour and material specifications, and original CAD data supplied directly from the drawing office of Ferrari. Furthermore, it has undergone detailed scrutiny by both engineering and design teams to ensure complete accuracy of representation. Every Amalgam 1:18 scale model is supplied in a luxury black box with a protective outer carrying sleeve. Each model is mounted on a polished black acrylic base protected by a clear acrylic dust cover. The base holds a booklet containing the certificate of authenticity along with information and collateral material about the car. The model title and original branding is displayed on a polished stainless steel plaque mounted at the front end of the base.
