I must respectfully disagree with some of you. I think the 612 is quite simply, a phenomenal car. It blows away ANY other car in its class. Think about it. The Bentley Continental looks like a tweaked juxtaposition of an Audi A6 and a Vanquish. The Maybach will suffocate you with its ostentatious super-luxury. I mean curtains in an automobile? Come on! The Porsche 911 2+2 has two tiny backseats that are often uninhabitable and are only suitable for a short trip around town. Its certainly not safe to take the car up to 150 with passengers in back. However, if you expect to carpool with the 612 Scaglietti you should reconsider your purchase
The Ferrari 612 is also considerably better than the 456. With 104 more horsepower, Ferrari is emphasizing the importance of an abundance of power for the target market of executives and professionals.
Ferrari has shown that they can get into the ultra-luxury market. The German sedan craze has infected people's minds and caused consumers to often favor fast sedans rather than sports cars. Ferrari has successfully infiltrated the super-luxury sedan market with the 612 Scaglietti. It is certainly a different car than the Maranello or Modena, but for good reason. Ultra-luxury drivers prefer a mellow exhaust note to a Tubi exhaust nerve-racking melody. However, Ferrari doesn't fail to emphasize the performance aspects of the model. The gigantic hood and engine-bay accentuate Ferrari's effort to meet and exceed a new standard in engine power.
Perhaps some old-tymers prefer the pop-up headlights of the Lotus Esprit generation. However, Ferrari was long overdue to revamp the front end of its four-seater motorcar. The new headlamp design is very contemporary and stylish right now. A very successful car from Japan, the Infiniti G35, has a similar front-end. Also the shockingly-beautiful Alfa-Romeo 8C uses this design with the raised edges of the hood. The best view of the 612 is from the front-end with its wonderfully sculpted grill and front-spoiler. Perhaps critics of this car expect a mellow Mercedes S600 design. The 612 is meant to be spotted from far away, but you'll have to look fast since the 199 Mph top speed beats every car in the class.
