This Ferrari 812 Superfast in black with teal accents over a black interior is based in Orange County. Half the street will not clock it as a Ferrari, and the enthusiasts who do treat you differently for it. Book it when you want the V12's sound and another driver's respect rather than a crowd.
A 6.5 liter naturally aspirated V12 sits ahead of the driver rather than behind, one of the last engines anywhere built this way, pulling cleanly from idle to an 8,900 rpm redline with nothing turbocharged getting in the way of the noise. It never really goes quiet, even rolling along Jamboree Road at a cruise, and you stop wanting it to. Sixty arrives in 2.9 seconds through the rear wheels only. Rear wheel steering makes the long nose turn into a bend on Santiago Canyon Road faster than a car this size should manage, though the first corner tends to arrive before the wheel warns you, so ease into it. Bumpy road mode keeps the ride composed on Orange County's rougher stretches.
Black with teal accents is one of the more unusual finishes we run, and it behaves differently depending on the light in a way a solid color does not. In shade it reads as close to black. Under direct sun along Newport Coast Drive the teal comes forward and the car looks like a different vehicle entirely. Shoot it in both conditions in the same session and use the contrast, since that is what makes this car different from our other 812, which runs white over black for exactly the opposite effect. The long hood is the defining line, so a low front three quarter at a Fashion Island valet stand is the strongest angle.
We run two 812 Superfasts in Orange County, the same car under the skin and different only in finish. This black and teal car is the quieter of the two, the one for a driver who wants the sound and the respect of people who actually know what they are looking at, without the attention a brighter car draws. Our other 812 runs white over black, built for the opposite reason, to be seen first. Book this one when the engine is the entire point of the day and you would rather be recognized by another enthusiast in a parking structure than photographed by a stranger.
This is the 812 Superfast, Ferrari's front-engined, rear-wheel drive V12 grand tourer, with a 6.5 liter naturally aspirated V12 making 789 horsepower and 530 lb-ft of torque through a 7-speed dual clutch gearbox. This car is finished in black with teal accents over a black interior, two seats, two doors. Carbon ceramic brakes and rear wheel steering come standard on every 812 Superfast, along with adjustable magnetic dampers and a bumpy road setting for rough pavement. Beyond the trim and this color combination, we are not naming further options on this specific car since we have not confirmed a build sheet with more.
