Your first look at the Ferrari F12 Speciale

Ferrari F12 Speciale spied August 2015

This is an undisguised Ferrari F12 Speciale. It was spotted in Maranello and gives us an early glimpse of what to expect from the lightweight front-engined V12 supercar.

From this photo you can see the ducts on the rear wheel arch which presumably aid air flow towards the car’s heavily revised rear bodywork. It’s hard to see, but we’re guessing there’s a pretty impressive rear diffuser in place.

The F12 Speciale is expected to be 200kg lighter than the F12 berlinetta, while gaining an extra 22kW (30bhp) in peak power. The motoring world is expecting the F12 Speciale to be launched at the Geneva Motor Show next March.

Just in case the F12 wasn’t already special enough

Ferrari F12berlinetta

The Ferrari F12 berlinetta is a beautiful thing. It’s stupidly fast, it drives like a dream and it’s stunning to look at. Thankfully, Ferrari reckons they can make it even better.

First, Ferrari plans to strip a massive 200kg from the F12 and then give it an extra 30bhp. That would give the mighty V12 a peak power output of 760bhp (566kW). The net result will be the F12 Speciale.

It’s expected the model will only be limited by the number of people willing and able to buy one. A launch date could be as soon as the Geneva Motor Show next March.

A heavily revised aero package may restrict the Speciale’s top speed compared with the berlinetta, but the Speciale will get there quicker.

Could this be the last normally aspirated Ferrari V12 ever made? Regardless this is going to be a very special car indeed. Start buying those lotto tickets people!
