Spec wise I would go with what you showed us now. But do change the color of the car to DARK BLUE! It would be great, making the car appear more classy, than with the silver/grey. Also, dark blue fit perfectly with the yellow brake clippers and Ferrari badges. On the interior, keep the tan/cream. And only change the stitching to dark blue matching the exterior. This is my personal dream spec for the 812 superfast...
if wanted the car to look elegant ,then silver wheels it is. But if wanted a sportier look, dark wheels is the best option. as for the 812, dark wheels will suit it characteristic.
Hi Tom, I'm still lost is this the sensible car place to be LOL. Well Tom no doubt you will pick a great spec but like James I would goto Italy and walk the production line then spec the car on site as I told James it should all fall into place I think it's pointless at this stage to spec one here in the U.K. You need to goto Italy Tom but it's your money and your business so happy configuration time but please keep us informed I'm sure you will but I can't wait. Best wishes Alan B
MarvisTv Hi but I disagree with you on this one as Tom is a business man and he has car's on order that need to be paid for and when a person/s make you an offer that would be stupid to refuse then you need your head testing Tom works hard and plays hard I think it's only fair to say that you and I both could only pass comment we have both purchased cars like Tom and sold them on but Tom is not. Flipper its called good business in my book but your entitled to your opinion. Kind Regards, Alan B
Huge Congrats James! TDF Blue with Silver calipers and bright Silver TDF spoked wheels. Rear Carbon Fibre splitter. Cuoio interior. Supremely elegant. The "Velvet Sledgehammer" Spec. So glad you chose another Ferrari. Such special cars.
Do the dark blue with yellow accents/callipers and black or dark gray wheels and a darker brown interior with the yellow horse and middle stripe, yellow meter and for the back take the carbon and then put yellow accents on the splitter like shmee did with his McLaren but in yellow ofc
I sincerely appreciate you sharing this experience with the subscribers which for all of us Speccing a Ferrari is surely some bucket list stuff. Thanks.
Both blue and grey options are absolutely gorgeous with tan interior but imho - silver wheels all the way! They're so sleek! Also the darker brown interior was also lovely...
TDF Blue, black wheels, yellow calipers/shields, red interior, tdf blue diffuser - Did this in the configurator and it looks insane, best spec I've seen so far
From a sculptor's standpoint, the Titanium showcases the "Shadows". It's then you really begin to appreciate the form as a whole. It's magical when you can see the shadows.
Great video JWW! The painted rear splitter looks a lot better for me. I might be the only one, but those blue seats with white stitching (in the showroom) look fantastic, specially with white exterior. Blue tdf is also beautiful in person with cuoio interior (exact same as in the video). Make sure to not forget the scuderia shields (ferrari emblem on the side) in your spec. Good luck!
I've absolutely fallen in love with the color scheme on my car. White exterior with a black/tan interior. It just comes off as a sophisticated look while still being sporty.
YES!!! You are the man, taking the plunge on the 812 Superfast. I fully expect you to become the double man, when you choose the new Portofino as your dream convertible.
Here you go James, this is how I would spec my 812 Superfast: (Would love a reply/reaction to whether or not you like it) Paintwork: ·External Colours: Rosso Fiorano - I liked this colour as it reminded me of the deep red that the 599's had. Rims and Calipers ·Rims: Matt Silver forg. racing wheel ·Brake Caliper Colour: Blu Vrake Calipers ·Additional Options: Titanium wheel bolts - I left the wheel caps as they are, I think the carbon ruins the Ferrari logo. Body Components: · Front Wind Carbon · Carbon Underdoor Cover · Carbon Fibre Rear Boot Area · Titanium Sport Pipes · Rear Bumpers Sides in Carbon F. · Front Bumper Insert Carbon Fib · "Scuderia Ferrari" Shield · Privacy Rear Window Additional: · Carbon Fibre Filter Box Cover · Front bumper protection film · Suspension Lifter · Front and Rear Parking Cameras · Adaptive Headlights · High Emotion Low Emission - Left the rear diffuser, prefer the lines with the colour. INTERIOR: Colour and Materials: · Interior: Rosso Ferrari (Alcantara) · Interior: Blu medio (Alcantara) · Stitching: Filo Speciale Grigio Chiaro (Special Stitching) · Carpets: Alcantara Interior Carpet Blu medio Seats: · Seat Style: Daytona Racing Seats · Horse Stitching: Tortora · Seat Belt: Rosso · Daytona Inserts: Blu medio (Leather) · Inner Details: Tortora (Leather) Additional: · Racing Seat Lifter Doors: Alcantara Trim: · Door pannel cent. trim: Tortora (Leather) · Pannelo Porta Colore A Scelta: Blu Medio (Leather) Door Options: · Exterior Carbon Fibre Cockpit: Dashboard: · Upper: Blu Medio (leather) · Lower: Blue Medio (Leather) · Carbon Fibre Dash Inserts Steering Wheel: · Steering Wheel: Blu Scurio (Alcantara) · Tachometer: Yellow Central Tunnel: · Upper: Blu Medio · Carbon Fibre Central Bridge Luggage Comp, Rear and Roof: Colour: · Headliner: Rosso Ferrari (Leather Diamond stitch) · Upper: Blu Medio (Alcantara) · Rear wall: Charcol (Leather) · Rear Parcel Shelf: Blu Medio · Boot Carpet: Blu Scuro (Alcantara) Additional · Square Pattern Headliner Accesories: All except Navtrack anti-theft system. Hope you like the look, I love the red on black as it feels quite British. It's a darker red so that the car is appreciated for the car and not the stand out colour. Hope you like this Spec and would love a reply from anyone who may change things on mine. I want it to look as good as possible. XD
Wall Street meme trader XD yeah you could kind of say that. I love to spec cars, like on the Porsche website, as I find it fascinating to see how much they allow you to personalise the car. I also love engineering and design so this was right up my street.
Here u go James: Blue Swaters paintwork, Matt silver TDF wheels, Rosso Corsa brake cal., Tortora interior - seats and lower dash, Daytona racing seats w. Blue Sterling inserts, Blue stitching, Blue Medio stitched horse, Coloured inner details in Rosso Alcantara (crazy, I know :-) But try it at the factory), Tortora Alcantara door panels, Carbon fibre interior.
great video. im not usually the biggest fan of some of this channels content. But must say this is a stand out video its giving us a genuine viewpoint of such an experence. There are not many other youtuber producing content like this. Great work
The 812 is an excellent choice over the tdf. Personally I think it looks better in darker colours. Dark Blue or Green (like your Range Rover) with Yellow Calipers, dark wheels and Tan interior. Grey is also a great shout, I think the best one I saw on the press launch was in grey. The rear diffuser looks better body coloured.
As crazy a bright color would be, I think dark green, with carbon parts, not black but darker grey colored wheels with yellow callipers will be the perfect combination!
Great idea! Can't wait for an update. Maybe you could do a for fun comparison spec video? The fully traditional look (that's my dream) : deep red exterior paint/silver wheels/brown leather/minimal carbon VS ultra-modern (that's your dream?): grey-silver/black wheels/carbon bits/non-brown interior. Thanks again.
Awesome of you to take us with you on that journey James! Even though i dont really like the look of the superfast, its really isnt my taste, i really like the insight you are giving us into a world most of your viewers will never get to. Its super interesting in my opinion.
James, choosing an exterior colour is a tough choice. But if it were me, it would be either Grigio Tatanio or my first choice, Grigio Granito. I think the lines of the 812 lend themselves very well to either colour, especially Grigio Granito.
Azzurro California (historical light blue), Giallo callipers (yellow), Nero TDF wheels (gloss black) and Crema interior (cream) trust me on this get it up on the TV spec or on their website.
I knew you would go for it. Congrats. Here is an idea -- Exterior: Nero DS 1250 (black); Interior: Cuoio (brown leather); Wheel: Nero (black) with Carbon Fiber & LEDs; Tachometer: Aluminum
My suggestion for a great spec would be the following: Exterior finished in Blu Swaters or Blu Tdf with Scuderia Shields, Gloss Black Lightweight forged wheels, Giallo Modena Brake Calipers and all Carbon Options except the rear diffuser middle section, looks way better in body colour especially for darker colours. Interior as you specced in the video or Blu Sterling/Grigio Scuro/Nero Combination with Yellow Seatbelts. Happy speccing!
What I kind of appreciated when speccing my Porsche is that they had a pre set theme as an option that they called the "Classic Interior" and that preset a lot of the otherwise numerous design choices. One could probably go exclusive and deviate as needed - though I liked having a preset to start with - like with equaliser pre sets on a stereo. And ultimately I made a few key decisions based on what Porsche marketing folks had done - knowing that they probably know more about style than I do.
Personally liked the darker blue with brown leather and blue stitching on the interior. Diffuser blue to match the paint and carbon everything else. You're buying my ultimate dream car, the newest front engine v12 Ferrari. Look forward to seeing more....
james, whatever you do, PLEASE chose the tdf wheels. they look SO good and suits the 812 much more than the "standard" wheels. also the spec you've showed us in the vid looks really good but what about something bold like a british or italian racing stripe or something? i think that would look amazing. Well done m8
Looks terrible in the configurator but it looks better in person. But i think its a great way to save 7k. And carbon fiber is just lacqured, so youll be holding plastic instead of fine italian leather.
Ferrari is ridiculous! Waiting almost 2 years for a car is nothing special or exclusive. In 2019 there will be plenty of way better cars which will be way better than 812. AND you dont have to wait that stupid amount of time, 3-4 months max. They should put their shit together and expand their production lines, that simple. 2 fucking years is an era in industry, especially now in 2017. Of course I understand that is the problem only for right hand wheel, but cmon! Im sure that UK is one of the biggest market, it shouldnt be ANY problem at all.
The problem isn't that they can't build the cars fast enough, it's that they've decided to build a certain number of cars each year. Building the cars faster would mean that they would have to shut down the factory for the last months of every year because there's nothing left to do and the customers waiting for next years allocations would still have to wait just like today. Ferrari is most likely going to up their annual limit of 7000 cars to 9000 in the next couple of years, but if that also means shorter waiting times is a different question. FWIW, can you name a similar and better car than the 812 which you can order within the next year and have delivered in max 3-4 months? Because I can't.
The Ferrari brand has been built over 70years on performance, prestige, and exclusivity. The price of exclusivity is you wait for your car because unlike golfs they are not making bazillions a week. The V12's are more exclusive than the V8's and given this will likely be the last N/A V12 Ferrari demand is likely to be high.
Vagabundo yes limited editions are build to a certain number but Ferrari still restrict the total number of all the cars they manufacture per year no matter which models and how great the demand.
I really enjoy your videos! Professionally filmed, well done editing and everything is just perfect, then i saw that you have 280k followers, man You deserve so much more, i know one follow isn't much but im here to support :D great channel
+LordSabo Thanks so much for the support buddy I appreciate the appreciation! Quality over quantity and the community we have developed around this channel is awesome!
I agree with you. I mean I think Ferraris are beautiful in just about any color, but red is like a trademark color of Ferrari. When people close their eyes and think of Ferrari... it's red.
Its funny, im probably the exact opposite. Ferraris do look great in red, but if I were speccing up my own, I would choose Giallo Modena or TDF Blue with the black wheels.
I saw an 812 in real life at my local Ferrari dealer, it was dark blue and had carbon everywhere with black rims. It looked really nice. If I were you I'd go for the dark blue!
-Blu Pozzi -Dark Grey 10 Spoke wheels -Gold/Bronze calipers and carbon center caps -All carbon exterior options -Full Cuoio interior with Blu Scuro Alcantara racing buckets, Cuoio stripe on seats, Blu Scuro stripes on dash, and contrast Blu Scuro and Cuoio stiching -And if you could do Tailormade blue carbon for all carbon bits...now that would be mega! Cheers!
Man it seems like so much fun to spec a car in a cool room with technology for a few hours, knowing that every wish can be granted. I would get it in yellow, with TDF rims and yellow calipers. Then for the interior i'd have a tanned leather/black one with the steering wheel in tan swell. I would keep the diffusor in yellow as well.
Blu Scozia, silver TdF wheels with carbon centre caps, blue caliper, all carbon exterior trinkets, silver interior trim pieces, Blu Sterling/Crema interior colour with Bianco thick stitching, the new racing seats, white rev counter. That would be the perfect spec. Or similar interiors with Bianco Fuji exterior and black TdF wheels. Both specs are spot on, methinks
5:15 If you get the car in silver, get the carbon diffuser. If you get in TDF Blue or similar ( which you really should in my opinion) get the diffuser in paint. Also silver wheels with both paints :)
A colour coded interior with the contrasting dark blue center stripe inside would look amazing i think. So a tan style learher with silver stitching and dark blue stripe. The paintwork has to be titanium silver, i think you were right in saying it will really make the beautiful lines of the car stand out especially with the silver rear diffuser also. I think most people that will spec there own model will most likely go with the carbon rear diffuser, so to have a colour coded one will have the added bonus of making it more individual. It would be nice (if possible) to have the brake calipers in a dark blue or silver also, hiding behind the slightly smoked TDF forged wheels, i think that would be the icing on the cake for sure James. Good luck in the speccing mate, wish you all the best.
Hi mate, carbon diffuser to match front lip and side skirts, then if diffuser appears a little dark highlight the lines in body colour. Unique and really nice.
Fantastic James! I agree with you about the reds not working on the car. I think the right kind of grey/silver might be the way to go... Seems to really show the lines of the car well.
TDF blue looks amazing James, definitely think it would look amazing with black wheels but I wouldn't personally choose a tan interior because it's a bit soft and this car is the complete opposite to soft 👍🏻 still you're choice.
If you are looking for the most low profile spec I think that's a great combo. On the other hand, the fuoco red absolutelly made your F12 stand out. If you want that presence I believe you need to pick a color that pops some more (maybe look at a Griggio Alloy?). Anyway I would definitely go for the TDF's wheels (not a fan of the forged ones since the launch tbh). Anyway enjoy the experience of speccing the car, I can only imagine how much fun it must be. Cheers from Portugal!
The blue is nice but the grey brings out the cuts more. But a darker version of grey slightly darker or the colour of the seat at 09.22-24, the bluish grey would look amazing. Best of both worlds.
dark blue looks amazing
Amin Baqeri that dark blue interior especially on the stearing wheel. Death😍😍😍
Spec wise I would go with what you showed us now. But do change the color of the car to DARK BLUE! It would be great, making the car appear more classy, than with the silver/grey. Also, dark blue fit perfectly with the yellow brake clippers and Ferrari badges. On the interior, keep the tan/cream. And only change the stitching to dark blue matching the exterior. This is my personal dream spec for the 812 superfast...
TDF blue with yellow calipers and cream interior. job done !
Agree. But I'd choose beige or beige tradizione leather inside :)
Beige interior with the carbon rear diffuser
I would go for the bronze/gold calipers and the tdf wheels of course
I don't understand the love for beige or white interior. Am I the only one who thinks it looks ugly?
Its an old traditional color for ferrari, just pure leather without any painting. Kind of classic, like rosso corsa painting outside.
Do the tdf wheels for sure.
TDF Blue, TDF Wheels (dark),Yellow Calipers,Cream/Tan Interior & Carbon everywhere
I just puked
Perfect spec
Strike Freedom not dark tdf wheels just silver but otherwise yes
if wanted the car to look elegant ,then silver wheels it is. But if wanted a sportier look, dark wheels is the best option. as for the 812, dark wheels will suit it characteristic.
instantsoup calm down dude
U have to the tdf blue , the silver car looks like a SE model
Beat me to it! I'm in next week. Car of the year this thing, glad you're getting one
TGE TV keep it for longer than the mclaren
Rah rah rah
Ryan Sharp he's going to, watch his garage update video, the 812 is a long termer
Hi Tom, I'm still lost is this the sensible car place to be LOL. Well Tom no doubt you will pick a great spec but like James I would goto Italy and walk the production line then spec the car on site as I told James it should all fall into place I think it's pointless at this stage to spec one here in the U.K. You need to goto Italy Tom but it's your money and your business so happy configuration time but please keep us informed I'm sure you will but I can't wait. Best wishes Alan B
MarvisTv Hi but I disagree with you on this one as Tom is a business man and he has car's on order that need to be paid for and when a person/s make you an offer that would be stupid to refuse then you need your head testing Tom works hard and plays hard I think it's only fair to say that you and I both could only pass comment we have both purchased cars like Tom and sold them on but Tom is not. Flipper its called good business in my book but your entitled to your opinion. Kind Regards, Alan B
Thanks for taking us on the journey. Excited to see what it'll be like in Italy!
The back diffuser has to be carbon fiber! Atleast in my opinion. And looked amazing with black rims! :)
Spec Idea : A carrera gt
+Sam Samuels 😂
Wow thanks for the response!
This
It's already tough speccing my cars in gta5.. let alone in real life xd
well said
Menace dark grey outside velvet blue inside all carbon specs blue brake callipers
It would take you a month or 3 XD
OMenace
Menace same world
Huge Congrats James! TDF Blue with Silver calipers and bright Silver TDF spoked wheels. Rear Carbon Fibre splitter. Cuoio interior. Supremely elegant. The "Velvet Sledgehammer" Spec. So glad you chose another Ferrari. Such special cars.
Carbon everything. Carbon seatbelts. Carbon indicator, carbon windshield. Carbon
TheBeetrootman hahaha couldn't agree more!
I agree. Even get the fucking spec sheet in carbon.
Seat paddings in carbon?
Carbon tyres for sure
Carbon exhaust, carbon pedals, carbon lights and carbon windows!
That colour on the interior is gorgeous, James! Definitely stick with it!
The 458 speciale have a new family member :)
CV Films i
he shld get a tdf stripe after if he goes for grey
I do this so much on my free time that I don't think I'd struggle on speccing my own lmao
Do the dark blue with yellow accents/callipers and black or dark gray wheels and a darker brown interior with the yellow horse and middle stripe, yellow meter and for the back take the carbon and then put yellow accents on the splitter like shmee did with his McLaren but in yellow ofc
I sincerely appreciate you sharing this experience with the subscribers which for all of us Speccing a Ferrari is surely some bucket list stuff.
Thanks.
Get a tdf blue with tan interior and all carbon options ticked
Sagar Sarker so many choices
Both blue and grey options are absolutely gorgeous with tan interior but imho - silver wheels all the way! They're so sleek! Also the darker brown interior was also lovely...
Never clicked on a notification so superfast it was a big suprise from you congratulations..!!! Sir
deepanshu singhal ii
TDF Blue, black wheels, yellow calipers/shields, red interior, tdf blue diffuser - Did this in the configurator and it looks insane, best spec I've seen so far
All the carbon parts are a must!
yeah like 458 carbon cup holder for 3000$ or smth like this , totaly worth it.
Yes! especially the rear splitter.. it looks off body coloured
also Matt black forged racing wheels, carbon is a must i agree!
I wonder If Mr JWW will answer you?
I think you double the sticker price with that in case of Ferrari... :-D
From a sculptor's standpoint, the Titanium showcases the "Shadows". It's then you really begin to appreciate the form as a whole. It's magical when you can see the shadows.
JAMES I LOVE THAT BLUE COLOUR. PLZ GO WITH DARK BLUE.
dark blue ferrari? what in the world.
If I were buying and speccing an 812 Superfast then I'd buy it in Rosso Fuoco color with matt silver rims and red brake calipers.
Great video JWW!
The painted rear splitter looks a lot better for me.
I might be the only one, but those blue seats with white stitching (in the showroom) look fantastic, specially with white exterior. Blue tdf is also beautiful in person with cuoio interior (exact same as in the video). Make sure to not forget the scuderia shields (ferrari emblem on the side) in your spec.
Good luck!
I've absolutely fallen in love with the color scheme on my car. White exterior with a black/tan interior. It just comes off as a sophisticated look while still being sporty.
JWW vs TGE
Who will spec it better?
JWW FTW!
Tges car will probs end up in the sea like the gt4 and 720
Masa Mainio Didn't he sell the GT3 RS as well?
James for sure, TGE has terrible taste.
BrainStem Recruiter not terrible but certainly not as good

Hope you like the look, I love the red on black as it feels quite British. It's a darker red so that the car is appreciated for the car and not the stand out colour. Hope you like this Spec and would love a reply from anyone who may change things on mine. I want it to look as good as possible. XD
Definition of living vicariously...
Wall Street meme trader XD yeah you could kind of say that. I love to spec cars, like on the Porsche website, as I find it fascinating to see how much they allow you to personalise the car. I also love engineering and design so this was right up my street.
Samuel Whitby I respect your passion 👊🏾.
Wall Street meme trader Cheers 😃
This silver is beautiful! It with a certain blue interior could look really great
The spec should be in TDF Blue, Black Wheels and ALL THE CARBON!
Here u go James: Blue Swaters paintwork, Matt silver TDF wheels, Rosso Corsa brake cal., Tortora interior - seats and lower dash, Daytona racing seats w. Blue Sterling inserts, Blue stitching, Blue Medio stitched horse, Coloured inner details in Rosso Alcantara (crazy, I know :-) But try it at the factory), Tortora Alcantara door panels, Carbon fibre interior.
JAMES GO WITH DARK BLUE PAINT, WHITE INTERIOR WITH BLUE STRIPES ON SEATS, SILVER CALLIPERS AND YOU ARE READY TO TAKE OFF!!!
Nothing looks more stunning than a Black Ferrari. Rare and dramatic!!
TDF wheels deffinetly! but I think if you spec it to be as tdf as possible then one day if you get actual tdf it will not be as special?
Dark blue, you get so passionate on previous videos when you see something in that TDF blue. The silver you love it because of your first speciale!
diffuser in carbon for sure
body color would look good in tdf blue, CF is way too mainstream
great video. im not usually the biggest fan of some of this channels content. But must say this is a stand out video its giving us a genuine viewpoint of such an experence. There are not many other youtuber producing content like this. Great work
I love the insight into such a legenadry and exclusive company! Great stuff James.
Dark silver paintjob, yellow stitching, yellow calippers, black tdf wheels, black/dark grey interior and all carbon parts👀👌🏼
The 812 is an excellent choice over the tdf.
Personally I think it looks better in darker colours. Dark Blue or Green (like your Range Rover) with Yellow Calipers, dark wheels and Tan interior.
Grey is also a great shout, I think the best one I saw on the press launch was in grey.
The rear diffuser looks better body coloured.
TDF blue over black interior with bright yellow stitching, shields, brake calipers and accents! DO IT!
Get a white interior. Dark blue exterior, silver wheels, white sudle striping.
As crazy a bright color would be, I think dark green, with carbon parts, not black but darker grey colored wheels with yellow callipers will be the perfect combination!
nice...can't wait to see it when it's done
Definitely some sort of dark blue! TDF Blu! With Tan seats, Navy stitching 812 racing seats! And TDF wheels grey!
Next video - taking delivery - video after that Why I SOLD my 812 etc etc
Great idea! Can't wait for an update. Maybe you could do a for fun comparison spec video? The fully traditional look (that's my dream) : deep red exterior paint/silver wheels/brown leather/minimal carbon VS ultra-modern (that's your dream?): grey-silver/black wheels/carbon bits/non-brown interior. Thanks again.
According to Clarkson you need to knee down when handing over the order form
Wow you two are hilarious!
XZagatoX It's Clarkson that's hilarious, not me nor that awkward guy
?
That color spec fit you! We can see you rollin up in that for sure! Superfast with a whole lot of class! 🏆🏁🏆
Match it to your 458 speciale
Awesome of you to take us with you on that journey James! Even though i dont really like the look of the superfast, its really isnt my taste, i really like the insight you are giving us into a world most of your viewers will never get to. Its super interesting in my opinion.
James it would be great if you reveal the prices of options you spec... just want to see how expensive it is to buy a fully loaded Ferrari V12 :)
Marco Sartori yeah but he hasn't locked the final specs yet
Rosso Fuoco triple layer paint - Matching brakes, gun metal tdf lightweight wheels, black interior wth red stitching and accents, yellow rev counter, carbon everywhere inside and out. Job done.
White interior, i've seen one it's freaking beautiful
A white interior is a nightmare to take care of. It gets dirty if you look at it for more than 3sec.
James, choosing an exterior colour is a tough choice. But if it were me, it would be either Grigio Tatanio or my first choice, Grigio Granito. I think the lines of the 812 lend themselves very well to either colour, especially Grigio Granito.
Azzurro California (historical light blue), Giallo callipers (yellow), Nero TDF wheels (gloss black) and Crema interior (cream) trust me on this get it up on the TV spec or on their website.
I knew you would go for it. Congrats. Here is an idea -- Exterior: Nero DS 1250 (black); Interior: Cuoio (brown leather); Wheel: Nero (black) with Carbon Fiber & LEDs; Tachometer: Aluminum
Giorgio Silverstone with body colour rear diffuser; matt silver TDF racing wheels
JB 7 i'm sure you meant Grigio :D
I 2nd this
My suggestion for a great spec would be the following:
Exterior finished in Blu Swaters or Blu Tdf with Scuderia Shields, Gloss Black Lightweight forged wheels, Giallo Modena Brake Calipers and all Carbon Options except the rear diffuser middle section, looks way better in body colour especially for darker colours.
Interior as you specced in the video or Blu Sterling/Grigio Scuro/Nero Combination with Yellow Seatbelts.
Happy speccing!
James:
COLOR => Verde British
RIMS => Racing forged matt black
INTERIOR => FULL SABBIA
;)
Random Squad the verde british should only go on british cars
I Batman Yeah I think that be a great spec for an Aston or Jaguar but it doesn't suit the heritage of Ferrari.
What I kind of appreciated when speccing my Porsche is that they had a pre set theme as an option that they called the "Classic Interior" and that preset a lot of the otherwise numerous design choices. One could probably go exclusive and deviate as needed - though I liked having a preset to start with - like with equaliser pre sets on a stereo. And ultimately I made a few key decisions based on what Porsche marketing folks had done - knowing that they probably know more about style than I do.
Verde British, silver rims and cuoio interior!
Personally liked the darker blue with brown leather and blue stitching on the interior. Diffuser blue to match the paint and carbon everything else. You're buying my ultimate dream car, the newest front engine v12 Ferrari. Look forward to seeing more....
That car is fuckin beautiful
I would color match the rear. Some new mustangs have that and it really complements the body shape
red and black nterior on gray exterior
james, whatever you do, PLEASE chose the tdf wheels. they look SO good and suits the 812 much more than the "standard" wheels. also the spec you've showed us in the vid looks really good but what about something bold like a british or italian racing stripe or something? i think that would look amazing. Well done m8
Blue tdf with yellow accents and black wheels
The back spoiler painted in satin black and add an stripe in the same color of the capilers... That's Awesome!
A Ferrari without all the carbon is not a Ferrari.
80's and 90's Ferrari's had no carbon and those are real Ferrari's
A Ferrari not painted in "Rosso Corsa" is not a Ferrari.
Carbon is nice as a "highlight" - but not too much and not anywhere!
Rosso Dino is a nice paint too, I saw an Enzo at Ferrari newport painted in that.
Blue Pozzi was even done by Enzo Ferrari - considering the paintjob issue of rosso corsa ....
Anonymous If Enzo was alive today he would slap you on the mouth!
This why I love JWW. Pure authentic motivation! Congratulations buddy :)
Avoid that carbon steering wheel like the plague
why? i think it looks sick
Looks terrible in the configurator but it looks better in person. But i think its a great way to save 7k. And carbon fiber is just lacqured, so youll be holding plastic instead of fine italian leather.
The other option is just cheap, nasty plastic.
As I said, Carbon fiber is just plastic. But the other option you are speaking of is a metal, likely aluminum or magnesium
There isn't a metal option. Its just plastic painted silver.
Such a boss! Well deserved, James! Can't wait to see it commin'!
Tan or Creme interior, black is rather bland.
It looks so much fun styling a car exactly how you want it. The dream for sure
Ferrari is ridiculous! Waiting almost 2 years for a car is nothing special or exclusive. In 2019 there will be plenty of way better cars which will be way better than 812. AND you dont have to wait that stupid amount of time, 3-4 months max. They should put their shit together and expand their production lines, that simple. 2 fucking years is an era in industry, especially now in 2017.
Of course I understand that is the problem only for right hand wheel, but cmon! Im sure that UK is one of the biggest market, it shouldnt be ANY problem at all.
The problem isn't that they can't build the cars fast enough, it's that they've decided to build a certain number of cars each year. Building the cars faster would mean that they would have to shut down the factory for the last months of every year because there's nothing left to do and the customers waiting for next years allocations would still have to wait just like today.
Ferrari is most likely going to up their annual limit of 7000 cars to 9000 in the next couple of years, but if that also means shorter waiting times is a different question.
FWIW, can you name a similar and better car than the 812 which you can order within the next year and have delivered in max 3-4 months? Because I can't.
The Ferrari brand has been built over 70years on performance, prestige, and exclusivity. The price of exclusivity is you wait for your car because unlike golfs they are not making bazillions a week. The V12's are more exclusive than the V8's and given this will likely be the last N/A V12 Ferrari demand is likely to be high.
Vagabundo they restrict the number of cars they make per annum to keep the exclusivity and therefore demand up
Yes, but only with "limited" editions :)
Vagabundo yes limited editions are build to a certain number but Ferrari still restrict the total number of all the cars they manufacture per year no matter which models and how great the demand.
I really enjoy your videos!
Professionally filmed, well done editing and everything is just perfect, then i saw that you have 280k followers, man
You deserve so much more, i know one follow isn't much but im here to support :D great channel
+LordSabo Thanks so much for the support buddy I appreciate the appreciation! Quality over quantity and the community we have developed around this channel is awesome!
I don't know why, but for me, if a Ferrari is not red, it's not really a true Ferrari. Just my thought!
I agree with you. I mean I think Ferraris are beautiful in just about any color, but red is like a trademark color of Ferrari. When people close their eyes and think of Ferrari... it's red.
carTe Totally agree. Red IS Ferrari!
Its funny, im probably the exact opposite. Ferraris do look great in red, but if I were speccing up my own, I would choose Giallo Modena or TDF Blue with the black wheels.
I saw an 812 in real life at my local Ferrari dealer, it was dark blue and had carbon everywhere with black rims. It looked really nice. If I were you I'd go for the dark blue!
There is a beautiful red for the 812, Rosso Fuoco, absolutley stunning
-Blu Pozzi
-Dark Grey 10 Spoke wheels
-Gold/Bronze calipers and carbon center caps
-All carbon exterior options
-Full Cuoio interior with Blu Scuro Alcantara racing buckets, Cuoio stripe on seats, Blu Scuro stripes on dash, and contrast Blu Scuro and Cuoio stiching
-And if you could do Tailormade blue carbon for all carbon bits...now that would be mega! Cheers!
Wow that looks unreal in that spec!!!!!!! Externally, nailed it
Body colour splitter look good. What's the difference between spec-ing it like this and Ferrari tailor made?
The TDF blue is awesome !! any ferrari in that color looks lit from my experience
Metallic Gray w/ white stripes and red interior. Bland exterior - Poppy interior = makes for amazing contrast
You're living the life I have in GTA:SA 😭😭😭😂😂😂 Great vid always! 🎊🎊🎊
Man it seems like so much fun to spec a car in a cool room with technology for a few hours, knowing that every wish can be granted. I would get it in yellow, with TDF rims and yellow calipers. Then for the interior i'd have a tanned leather/black one with the steering wheel in tan swell. I would keep the diffusor in yellow as well.
Blu Scozia, silver TdF wheels with carbon centre caps, blue caliper, all carbon exterior trinkets, silver interior trim pieces, Blu Sterling/Crema interior colour with Bianco thick stitching, the new racing seats, white rev counter. That would be the perfect spec.
Or similar interiors with Bianco Fuji exterior and black TdF wheels. Both specs are spot on, methinks
5:15 If you get the car in silver, get the carbon diffuser. If you get in TDF Blue or similar ( which you really should in my opinion) get the diffuser in paint. Also silver wheels with both paints :)
A colour coded interior with the contrasting dark blue center stripe inside would look amazing i think. So a tan style learher with silver stitching and dark blue stripe. The paintwork has to be titanium silver, i think you were right in saying it will really make the beautiful lines of the car stand out especially with the silver rear diffuser also. I think most people that will spec there own model will most likely go with the carbon rear diffuser, so to have a colour coded one will have the added bonus of making it more individual. It would be nice (if possible) to have the brake calipers in a dark blue or silver also, hiding behind the slightly smoked TDF forged wheels, i think that would be the icing on the cake for sure James. Good luck in the speccing mate, wish you all the best.
Hi mate, carbon diffuser to match front lip and side skirts, then if diffuser appears a little dark highlight the lines in body colour. Unique and really nice.
Fantastic James! I agree with you about the reds not working on the car. I think the right kind of grey/silver might be the way to go... Seems to really show the lines of the car well.
TDF blue looks amazing James, definitely think it would look amazing with black wheels but I wouldn't personally choose a tan interior because it's a bit soft and this car is the complete opposite to soft 👍🏻 still you're choice.
If you are looking for the most low profile spec I think that's a great combo. On the other hand, the fuoco red absolutelly made your F12 stand out. If you want that presence I believe you need to pick a color that pops some more (maybe look at a Griggio Alloy?). Anyway I would definitely go for the TDF's wheels (not a fan of the forged ones since the launch tbh). Anyway enjoy the experience of speccing the car, I can only imagine how much fun it must be. Cheers from Portugal!
Go for a tdf dark blue spec with the black wheels and the rear carbon fiber diffuser. I think it might look better than the body painted one.
The blue is nice but the grey brings out the cuts more. But a darker version of grey slightly darker or the colour of the seat at 09.22-24, the bluish grey would look amazing. Best of both worlds.
Silver with Red interior is also a great option. Dark blue with Black rims and brown interior. Green with brown interior with black rims 👌🏽
