Ferrari 812 Superfast Review | Where does it belong?

#Ferrari #812Superfast #CarReview
The Ferrari 812 Superfast is billed as a comfortable, usable GT car that’s as much at home in the millionaire districts of the world’s most expensive cities, as it is tearing down the autoroute towards the ultimate gin palace.

Thing is, we’re not convinced that the 812 Superfast is all the excessive GT cruiser it’s cracked up to be. Sure, it’s easy to drive, but what about that 789bhp 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12? What about the Ferrari Power Oversteer function, or Virtual Short Wheelbase 2.0? Surely they have more to do with winding country roads than big cities or long, straight motorways. So where exactly, does this Ferrari belong?

Watch as James Dennison heads out into the UK countryside to find out.

"Where does it belong?" If you're looking for a place to put it, I suggest my garage.

The 812 has to be considered one of the car worlds best GT cars and may be possibly one of the best cars . Love the noise it develops- so glorious

[wKFaded]

If I was to buy a Ferrari this is the car I get no doubt

This gentleman looks 19, but sounds like he’s a 40 year old BBC commentator. Well done Chap 👍

The 812 Superfast is one of my favourite Ferraris of all time. There is always something extra special about the front engined V12 GT Ferraris imo and the 812 is undoubtedly another magnificent successor in that front engined V12 super GT lineage.

Once I see James entering immediate know this will be a high quality review hit like even before finish watching it 👍😊

[jimbeam]

That´s such an interesting review. I even love the fact that he is driving through London it is so fresh to my German eyes. It is brilliant to review cars in the environment they are most likely to be driven.

The maximum speed of the 812 is not 211mp / h this is the maximum speed limited electronically, without the electronic limiter it goes easy beyond 225mp / h Perfect GT!! I love the 812!! Great content!

The 812 SFis the only modern Ferrari I would want. The engine sound is bliss. Turn of the electric nannies and it's a handful with all the power going to the rear with a FM engine setup. F8 Trib sounds incredibly disappointing along with all its computers making you look like a hero. This is the last Italian car from Ferrari itnappears. The rest of the lineup is German in manners

I do love your reviews. I think the Superfast is easier to drive and won't bite you like the F12 Belinetta. That said, the Superfast is not for me but you made it interesting enough to watch. Kudos.

Today I remember the first video by James, it was about 488 Pista. Since that video I follow this channel. Amazing review mate, the 812 is awesome, great job. Huge from Argentina.

[Franskie]

This and the 458 has the best fronts on any Ferrari

[augustortiz]

I remember when the 599 gtb came out and I thought it was wild... silly me.

[neoanderson]

Well shot and presented. 👍🏻👏🏻
Forza Ferrari!! 😎

[j.bennyhung]

The video quality, though. Looking for color grading and sharpness.

[keithjackson]

Good review. But, getting a little tired of the cliche sayings about the usability of a modern car? This is 2020. Ferrari better be building reliable, usable products. Lambo, Ferrari they seem to be doing it right. McLaren needs to take note. Quality, reliability and use are of utmost importance right now. I applaud Ferrari for building a product that looks and performs well, but also can be trusted to work. In the bad storms, of any life.

[venom]

The 812 is nice but I prefer the F12, think it looks better.

[jonnybr]

It's called eight twelve no eight one two

[AB-X]

There's a funny thing to think about. The 812SF does not actually sit in the GT line of Ferrari cars, but rather in their line of sports cars. Yes press wise, they said GT, but internally it never was anything but a sports car.

Our megane trophy r, grand turismo stradale and 991 gt3 rs are out in the countryside. Never in town 😬
