How does it compare to the F12? How does it perform in the twisties? What’s it like driving a car with nearly 800bhp - in the wet? And the most important question - has Ferrari fixed the indicator buttons? All these questions and more will be answered in this week’s episode.

I thought the 812 was just going to be a slightly better F12, but I was wrong.
I have to say the 812 moved the game on significantly to me as an everyday guy driving it on the road, from the rear wheel steer, how the valves open up earlier (F12 needed revs to get that sound going unless you had an aftermarket exhaust). The downshifts seemed to "explode" more, and where the F12 used to scare me, the 812 seemed a whole lot more manageable, despite the extra power.
And yes the interior is definitely also a step up.
But Id still be happy with an F12 lol
Thanks for the video CarGuys
Not sure why people keep saying the F12 is a better looking car. This thing is gorgeous.
Epic epic epic. Thanks guys for this one . Just the sound of that engine , oh it’s make my day worthwhile. When the GoPro falls off pmsl !
Line of the video for me, Jason “ this car is a Triumph” Damian “no it’s a Ferrari”.
So dry but to me such quick whit.
I look forward to when you have yours and we can hear that V12 soundtrack again.
Hands down the best real world owner's perspective Ferrari channel! I'm getting ready for a 458 this summer but F12 is in the radar as well. Thank you for the amazing content.
Thank you, David. You will love the 458 - please keep us posted, and of course send us pics of your car when you get it
@@TheCarGuysTV sure! I'll give you a shout-out.
I went back to this video after taking an 812 for a test drive. I currently own An Aventador S and wanted to add another naturally aspirated V12 to my garage but with a totally different experience.
As a die-hard Lambo V12 guy, I absolutely loved the 812.
I thought your review was realistic because you both drove the car along typical British B roads in the wet!
The seating position and sight lines were brilliant. I also thought the digital speedo was perfectly positioned and allowed me to keep my eyes on the road but see my speed in my lower peripheral vision.
I also thought this was the purest sounding V12 and there was alot of sound in the spacious cabin.
I want one now and that’s saying something as a Lambo guy!
I think the reviews you both do are excellent because you can revisit them again after a test drive and they provide useful and insightful consumer information.
The amount of technical information that you include means that this video is so much more useful for me thinking of buying a car.
I do understand why you both love Ferrari now through driving the 812. The 812 for me was very pure,elegant and understated which makes it a good partner to my Aventador S which is flamboyant, theatrical and raw.
Lastly, could you revisit the 812 amd review it against the F12? I would like to know now after a few years whether you feel the same way about the 812 compared to the F12 as you did in this video.
Thanks again!
That 812 really looks great!
Imagine how much this will be worth as a classic car... Great video as always, thank you guys !
As ever my two favourite youtube’rs turn out another quality video.
What makes your whole concept different for me is that you can actually go out and buy the cars you comment on and you have put your money where you’re mouth is and done that.
Speaks volumes for me that. So much respect.
Keep doing what you do fellas cos if you didn’t my down time wouldn’t be the same.
Cheers, Martin, that means a lot. It’s heartening to hear you enjoy the channel, and it makes all the time we spend on it seem worthwhile.
My heart is a 599. But this has blown me away, stunning car. Congratulations
I can see why you're picking up subscribers. I'm now looking forward to your videos and because I have no life, I subscribe to 189 car channels and just moved yours up to the top. Great work, Gents. And to tell you the truth, I'd love a road like that anywhere near me here on the East Coast of the U.S.
Great to have you aboard, Marc
I have to agree with you, I haven't seen an 812 in person yet, but I prefer the look of the F12 more, there's a guy down the road with a red one and that just looks fantastic. Also is that a Pista sitting next to the 812 when you pulled out?
No the car next to the 812 was the 488 Challenge
TheCarGuys.TV It looks amazing, you need to review it also 👍
This was another great video, appreciate the insight. Possibly when you get your delivery you can delve into some of the details and tech. Thanks!!
Great review guys! Mightily impressed with the 812 and its ability to put down the V12 power, even on wet/slippery roads
Love the reviews guys and I am so excited because I have an 812 on order and a Pista on order and your down to earth, real owner reviews are refreshing. Love the hard core track guy reviews but not very realistic for me. Thanks and keep up the good work.
Great stuff, Michael - really glad you like the channel, it's good to have you aboard. Those are two special cars you've got on the way. What else have you got?
I agree with Damian, I think gloss carbon looks way nicer than satin carbon on any car
What an amazing car....great video thanks guys
I’d take one with black exterior, yellow calipers red interior
Brilliant as always, many thanks for sharing guys!!
I hope they do one with fix glass top , to give it more drama and airy feeling
That would be awesome - it does come on the GTC4, so you never know
The 812 is such an amazing car 😍 great video 👍😎
Sometimes older comments get lost in time - as we do an episode per week. But since you're now blocked, this won't matter to you, Ali
Thanks
Your knowledge and experience about Ferrari s are just out of this world thanks
Cheers
@@TheCarGuysTV I am 39 and huge ferrari fan from Turkiye for 30 years and its great to hear about those awesome cars by guys who owns and drives them for a long time this is much much better than to watch a car journalists test reviews
So since the F12 tdf was a car that's greatly appreciated in value over time, one can imagine how much improved the upcoming 812 tdf could be: 800+ hp, lighter wheels and tech....close enough to win a race on Sunday and drive home afterwards?
Exactly - a dizzying prospect
I've been looking forward to this all day at work, many thanks
Oh hello, Tuna in the house! I just play spot the watches now haha
@Ruán Conán then I'm a sad twat too!
Always delirious to get Carguys notification!
"the passenger screen is absolutely pointless"... Then spends 3 minutes in glee discussing how cool it is 😂
Er, I didn’t
Thanks for bringing us with you on your first drive of the Superfast! Any idea on how this car will compare with the McLaren 720S?
It's slower I reckon.
I like the strong accent. "T-auk" " Smauwl " very good.
Er, thanks
Love popping to that garage. I wonder if they will lend me one too
Great review, sounds like a cracking car! We need to see you guys do a weekend road trip in the Integra and the Prelude!
It’s the “We never got invited to any fancy places” for me
TOY 123… Iwonder if anyone would order TOY 074 as a plate for their supercar? 😁 Well, maybe for an LFA.
To be honest, I still prefer the TDF's look, but in the end, that's simply personal preference.
Simply great guys......keep em' coming
Entertaining and well made video as usual!
Are you keeping the tdf or did you sell it already?
i would love to see the comparison with the pista,although it's totally different
Great vid as always guys 👏🏼👏🏼
Another great video but I can’t help feeling sorry for any one buys any car then the next model that comes out is better.
Like buying soap powder
Then next day it says new and improved your like wait a minute..
I always wanted the F12 but now I’m like now I want the 812 😜
F12 is still one of the great Ferraris, so you still wouldn’t be disappointed. And it looks better
I hope they bin their F12s. Will make it easier for me to own one.
Those snarling nostrils on the super fast are amazing.... what spec have you gone for Damian?
Not finalised yet - I’m useless at speccing
Thanx once again guys, helps the brand, cheers.
I really WISH you were the real Piero - having met him though, I know it isn’t ☹️
How's 812 hold its value against F8? If you have to pick one, which one will it be? And why?
Thank you for your video! I really enjoyed it.
When does your 812 arrive? 👍 👌 💪 🇮🇹 🇬🇧 ✌️
Near the end of the year is the best guess
Good Video once again guys
Oh yes love that car can't wait to see yours hopefully ferrari won't keep you waiting like the pista
Sadly it will
Good evening guys and greetings from CA, I have quick questions, would you guys buy an 812 or F12 now in 2021? I'm looking to buy my 1st Ferrari and I want a V12 that I can afford of course lol I'm turning 28 and life have been really good so I figured is time to treat myself to something I love. I would be getting a used one, with low mileage and they range between 290k-390k for the 812 and 180k-220k for the F12.
Another very enjoyable video from you guy's. Damian, what is the watch that you are wearing is this video? Cheers Scott.
Hi Scott, it's a Seiko 1978 Quartz Saturation Diver’s Limited Edition S23626J1
@@TheCarGuysTV thank you, sounds expensive. I've just bought my first "expensive watch" a Rolex Deepsea which I'll add to my omega Planet Ocean, I liked the watch Damian was wearing and would like to add it to my collection.
Raven Media Actually the Seiko’s about £2k so not too bad. DeepSea is a lovely watch - is yours gen 1 or 2?
@@TheCarGuysTV Mines a 2014 so i guess a gen1? I bought it from a private Rolex collector who bought it new and didn't wear it very often, my aim was to buy a watch from its original owner, complete with everything. I have the box (inner and outer), papers and original bill of sale. Its got two independent valuations, receipt from new, box, cards, both tags, the protective plastic has been stuck to the booklet and still has some on the bracelet which has never been polished.
I did have my name down on a new one but my chances where very slim, im not rich so im happy with what ive bought.
Sounds like an incredible example
Great vlog as always . Can you drop a hint as to the colour you've gone for on your inbound 812? Will it compliment the TDFs ?
No hints but I will film the speccing process
The suspension lift doesn't go high enough. It scrapes all the time.
Great review guys,
At least you not driving it like the others, like demented frustrated old F1 guys.
Fantastic review... thanks chaps
Thanks, Daniel
It’s a prettier car car than the F12, that’s for sure. Just hoping F12 prices drop like a stone and I can upgrade my 360. ( unlikely! ). Great review. 👍
Are those roads 2 way? How do u pass each other?
Roads?
Loving the seiko marinemaster!!!
great vid guys
Thanks, Sy
Never been a fan of front engine rear drive Ferrari’s ,which feels like I admitted respecting Hitler,Stalin and Mao. This one however made my eyes widen,better looking in my opinion,those rear lights, better resolved dynamically. Great interior, deep pile fabric on the parcel shelf sealed the deal. TDF for sale anyone?
Awwww Mannnnn!
I love that Car!!!
Loved this.
Thanks, Devon
You bought a SuperFAST? You must be having another source of income besides youtube. GREAT CAR and fun review to watch!
No, this episode is really old
Very good video 👍👍👍
Did we get this right: Nicer than the TdF? Sure! But also faster and more comfy! People are dipping their F12s? Yes I did!
It’s more useable, more manageable, more driveable than a TDF, but not nicer.
Correct. But above all, a TdF would buy me 3 812s. Is the TdF really worth that much?
You seem to be talking about the tdf in the past tense, does that mean its gone?
No, it was because we were comparing it to our latest drive in the TDF
3:16 that finish around that dial where the different modes are labelled looks horrendous looks it’s been glued
on by a child and the interior looks nothing special besides the carbon fibre and the pointless touchscreen for the passenger.
It’s a beautiful car to look at but I’d take the F12 TDF 6 days out of 7 .
Nice review
The guy is struggleing to find any weak point .I guess the 400k price tag is not a problem ,eh? :D
Ferrari, the undisputed best car make in the world. Whoever says the Germans are better, he’s just deluded.
I think you’ll find they’re both awesome but in different ways
Did Corvette need a mid engine design?
I wouldn’t say need, but it has certainly spiced things up a bit
The "Eight-One-Two" Superfast..the McLaren Five-Seven-Zero...the Aston Martin DB One-One.
😂😂😂
Hey do they say eight one two but they don’t say f one two, eight twelve is just easier to say
Is it « Rosso 70th anni » color ?
Why do you call it an eight one two but then say v twelve instead of v one two?
It is very expensive though.
A shame we did not hear the V12 screaming...
12:14 what about Aston Martin DBS Superlegerra?
Based on an almost back to back drive of both, we'd have to say the 812 takes it. However, we need to spend at least 24 hours in the DBS for that opinion to be of full value.
812 is a great car, but it certainly isn't a GT, nor was it ever intended to be. Too noisy, too low geared and too hardcore. It's a supercar. If you want a GT, the Conti or DB12 are far better options.
Hmmmmmm...think id still go with a dbs superlegerra
Nothing wrong with that
Isn't it easier to just say eight twelve vs eight one two
It's actually easier to say both
Isn't it pronounced eight twelve not eight one two?
My house cost less then that car !!!
It is pretty expensive
just too expensive, lovely car but out of my price range
Falling fast now
FeRrArI 8 1 2
..... more importantly, did you buy it?
I’ve got one on order, so it made me more excited about that
“This car is a triumph.”
“No it’s not, it’s a Ferrari!”
😂😂😂
Lamborghini jalpa
I understand everyone who compares the looks of the 812 to the F12 and prefers tha latter.
I was of the very same opinion, until i saw an 812 in person and sweet lord what a stunner it is!
The thing with Ferraris is that they slowly grow on you, it is simply because they tend to always be ahead of the game , and as result it takes time to fully appreciate them!
You may well be right
Perfect example of this is the TR. 30 years on, its aging amazingly well
Same story happened whith me you're 10000% RIGHT.
I agree, I was in fort lauderdale and saw a few on the road and jesus it is stunning
I like your honesty Dario.
Please appreciate these cars, cars like 812 won't be there for much longer those who say it's just a overpowered f12 will understand what they've missed when it's gone
Oh god I can’t imagine how mental the “TDF” version of the 812 will be!!!
Who said they will make one?
Lately they always have. It won’t be called the “TDF” though. Last generation was the F12 TDF and the generation before that was the 599 GTO.
SleepEatDrive I was literally just thinking that
They just make millions version out off it. Look closely it is just 599 rework.
campkira money cycling formula
I own a Ferrari and thought it was my dream car, until I saw the 812 Superfast in person lol. #goalsreaquired
Which one do you have?
TheCarGuys.TV A 2014 Cali30 Nero/Nero, Carbon bits all over, Novitec Springs and ADv1 Wheels. She’s a looker and the N/A scream from the engine is bliss but that 812 is...wow. I’m a fellow UA-camr but I have a offtopic Page on IG where I show the car. @nfa_review_offtopic 😎
I agree on the looks. I know it’s subjective but the F12 was in my opinion a much better looking car. I like this from the back, and directly in front but the side profile seems off and a little ‘droopy’ with that upwards stroking bodywork. Shame, as it’s clearly a much better car.
I like the three grills in the back side of the tdf. That alone almost makes the tdf better looking.
Can you just imagine the hardcore version to this will be like? monstrous!! awesome car!
Haha, always a pleasure seeing you guys have fun. I'm sure you made the right choice ordering the 812!
V12 Berlinetta is always my favorite in the line. Best looking layout and the BEST engine! Bravo!
Love the 812...
What a Ferrari. Love your banter and videos. Really informative and delivered in a chilled fashion. Nice one!
Brilliant thanks from and all your other subscribers who will never own of of these cars or probably never drive one !
Never stop dreaming, Pete
Given that i own a GT3 Touring myself and that it feels very oversized for usual roads performance wise i can imagine how this must feel. A good GT car, yes. But i doubt it's a real fun car. Going 1/10 of the throttle 99% of the time isn't THAT enjoyable. So i am heading to the Alpine A110 next. Would love to see a vid of that..
THAT 6.5! Enough said.
The 812 Superfast is an absolutely brilliant beast of a car. I loved the F12 berlinetta but I must admit that I love the 812 Superfast even more. It's just so beautiful and amazing.
I can't stand the styling of the 812 , to much of a mish mash of retro ferrari styling cues .
@@paulthomson9014 Didn't ask your opinion.
Customer; "How much power does it have?
Ferrari; "Yes"
GUYS DO A REVIEW ON AGT4 LUSSO
Good idea
Good review, what a car
That must be the longest bonnet in the world 🙂
