If the F12 TDF wasn’t unique and extroverted enough, the quite aptly named ‘Il Mostro’, meaning ‘The Monster’ 1 of a kind TDF takes these two qualities to another level. The Matt Verde Masoni paint has a slightly metallic finish to it under close inspection. This very rare paint perfectly complements the beautifully sculpted bodywork, allowing you to fully appreciate the work art that is the F12 TDF. The intricate details continue onto the interior, with all carbon fibre being finished in Matt Verde Militare, and 3D Verde Militare Fabric details which ties in perfectly to the mean green theme of Il Mostro.
This exquisite 1 of 799 Ferrari is named after the Tour de France, not the cycling kind, but a road race held in France which Ferrari dominated during the 50’s and 60’s. The F12tdf is based on the standard F12 Berlinetta except now Ferrari have track focused it and turned every aspect up to 11. Power from the outrageous 6.3L V12, which now revs to 8,900rpm, has been increased to 769bhp with the use of race-spec engine parts and the F1 DCT gearbox revised to give 30% quicker up shifts and 40% quicker down shifts. The TDF also features far more menacing functional aerodynamics including a larger active-aero splitter and the distinctive ‘Aerobridge’ features, just behind the front wheels, designed to increase downforce and force the car on to the track. Add this to the liberal use of carbon fibre and weight saving trickery throughout, to achieve a 110kg weight saving over the standard F12, and it really is no surprise that this is the second fastest road legal Ferrari to ever lap the infamous Fiorano test track, just 1.3 seconds behind the LaFerrari! Overall, the F12tdf is a naturally aspirated triumph, and its exclusivity makes it a highly significant and collectible modern Ferrari.
