Top Gear Ferrari 812 Superfast Chris Harris Review – Video

With a claimed top speed of 211 mph, the name 812 Superfast is not mere hyperbole. This curvaceous coupe is packing a 789-hp 6.5-liter V-12 under its hood, driving the rear wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic.

 

An active diffuser and aerodynamically shaped body panels help the 812 Superfast slice through the air with minimal drag and on to its heroic maximum velocity. What’s the price for all this awesomeness? More than $300,000, with values likely rising from there.

 

ESTIMATED BASE PRICE:$315,000
