No camouflage Ferrari F12 Speciale photographed
The all new highly anticipated Ferrari F12 Speciale / GTO has been caught on camera without any sort of disguise.
Judging by the photo posted there were several other Ferraris nearby, chances are this higher-performance lightweight yellow Ferrari F12 was spotted at Ferrari’s factory in Maranello ahead of a public debut scheduled for mid-September 2015 at the Frankfurt Motor Show. The supercar’s design perfectly matches what we saw in those two imagined renders which emerged online towards the end of June, so we are pretty sure this has to be the beefier Ferrari F12 Berlinetta expected to be named Speciale or GTO.
Likely a pre-production car, it comes with carbon fiber installed on the front fenders and side skirts while the rear fenders have triple vents to cool down the modified V12 6.3-liter engine which is believed to get an extra 30 bhp for a grand total of 760 bhp.
The back of the supercar hosts an all new bumper which isn’t what we’d call spectacular, but maybe it looks better in higher resolution up-close photos. There’s also a more larger rear spoiler lip while the shape of the rear window is more linear now.
Aside from receiving a new look and more power, the beefier Ferrari F12 Berlinetta is expected to shave off as much as 200 kg (441 lbs), but honestly this seems overly optimistic at this point. Performances should be stellar as combining more power with less weight will enable a 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) sprint in less than 3 seconds.
An online reveal could occur in the weeks to come ahead of a IAA debut this fall.
