The Ferrari F12berlinetta is a front-engine V12 grand touring supercar produced from 2012 to 2017. Powered by a naturally aspirated 6.3L V12 producing 730 horsepower, it became one of Ferrari’s most powerful non-hybrid road cars of its era.
As the successor to the Ferrari 599 GTB, the F12 combined extreme performance with long-distance comfort and served as Ferrari’s flagship front-engine model before the 812 Superfast.
| Category | Specification |
|---|---|
| Engine | 6.3L Naturally Aspirated V12 |
| Horsepower | 730 hp |
| Torque | 509 lb-ft |
| Transmission | 7-Speed Dual-Clutch |
| 0–60 mph | ~3.1 Seconds |
| Top Speed | 211+ mph |
The Ferrari F12berlinetta accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in approximately 3.1 seconds and reaches a top speed of over 211 mph, making it one of the fastest front-engine V12 Ferrari models ever produced.
The Ferrari F12berlinetta blends grand touring comfort with a driver-focused cockpit inspired by Ferrari Formula 1 technology. Styled in collaboration with Pininfarina, it also marked the end of a historic design era for Ferrari road cars.
The F12berlinetta combined grand touring proportions with advanced aerodynamic engineering, creating one of Ferrari’s most recognizable modern V12 designs.
Ferrari never released an official final production total, but the F12berlinetta is widely estimated at around 5,000 units produced from 2012 to 2017. That makes it exclusive enough to remain special, while still more attainable than limited-run Ferrari models.
| F12 Variant | Production |
|---|---|
| Ferrari F12tdf | 799 units |
| 70th Anniversary Edition | 70 units |
| Ferrari F60 America | 10 units |
| Coachbuilt specials | Extremely low production numbers |
The standard F12berlinetta is uncommon on the road, while special editions are significantly rarer and often command major premiums.
The Ferrari F12berlinetta launched with a U.S. starting MSRP of approximately $315,000. With Ferrari personalization options, many examples originally exceeded $365,000 when delivered new.
| Model / Condition | Estimated Market Range |
|---|---|
| Standard F12berlinetta | $210,000 – $360,000+ |
| Low-Mile / Collector Grade | $300,000 – $650,000+ |
| Ferrari F12tdf | $1.4M – $4.2M+ |
Documented maintenance, lower mileage, rare specifications, and desirable colors can all increase value. Exceptional examples with strong history often command the highest premiums.
These three V12 grand tourers represent different eras of Ferrari performance. The 599 GTB feels more traditional, the F12berlinetta is the balance point, and the 812 Superfast pushes the formula to its limit.
| Model | Horsepower | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| 599 GTB | 612 hp | Purists |
| F12berlinetta | 730 hp | Enthusiasts |
| 812 Superfast | 789 hp | Maximum power seekers |
The 599 GTB appeals to drivers who want an older-school feel. Many enthusiasts see the F12 as the ideal mix of beauty, speed, and usability, while the 812 Superfast delivers the highest performance of the three.
The Ferrari F12tdf is the lighter, faster, and more aggressive evolution of the F12berlinetta. Created as a tribute to Ferrari’s Tour de France racing history, it transformed the grand touring F12 into a true collector-grade performance machine.
| Variant | Horsepower | 0–60 mph |
|---|---|---|
| F12berlinetta | 730 hp | 3.1 sec |
| F12tdf | 769 hp | 2.9 sec |
The F12tdf combines rarity, performance, and Ferrari heritage, making it one of the most desirable modern V12 models in the market.
