junkie 0 Posted January 12, 2008 Nice what ferrari has a V12? Remember seeing and hearing a murciealago on full throttle in 2nd gearish i presume as he was doing it from a very slow speed, absolutely friggin immense. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted January 12, 2008 The Ferarri 550 and 575M are both V12's... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy665 0 Posted January 12, 2008 Current production Ferrari V12's are the 612 Scaglietti (just making the last ones now) and 599GTB. An old boss of mine had a 550 Maranello and was so disappointed wth the quietness of the standard system that he spent 6k on a Koenig six pipe system that sounded totally fantastic. V12 Ferraris of recent years have been criticised for having exhausts that are far too quiet, probably just an excuse to charge customers extra for a decent sounding exhaust Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrbeige 0 Posted January 13, 2008 Was on my way back from Shrewsbury before Xmas and had a similar experience with Lambo Muchialargo (sp?). Coming off the A1/A4 roundabout, and the driver gave it a LOT of beans. What a sound! :D It was dark too, so flame-mungus out the back on gearchange! 8) Driven the way they should be! :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sonicriot13 0 Posted January 13, 2008 I know it's a not a V12 but I was walking down Portman Road in Ipswich (where the football ground is) the other day and someone, possibly a footballer, pulled out of the ground in an F430 Spyder and ragged the bejeesus out of it. It sounded sooooo goooood!!!!!!!!!! :D I dread to think what speed he was doing by the time he made the end of the street! :lol: Good thing there were no police around....
