Ferrari 512 BBi Is A Piece of Art
Is it weird that this film made my eyes well up with tears? …. When I was around 12, my dad came up the driveway one night with a new 512 he had ordered in Modena. He claims is was the first one in brown — a very dark, metallic saddle-leather color that was just beautiful. And the sound of the acceleration (in the film at 1:47) just floored me. Thank you Petrolicious. Keep producing great stuff.
The BB 512 is my favorite Ferrari of all time. I never thought I would like a Ferrari not painted red….especially a Boxer! The 3/4 angle shots of the car are pure auto porn! If you are thinking of having a garage/living space like this check with your local city agencies first. There are many strict rules where building or converting your place similar to this set up is illegal. I tried to do this when I owned a home 20 years ago and the city I live in rejected all my applications for building permits. They cited fire hazards. Things could be different now. My personal space would have room for at least four cars and four motorcycles. Thanks for another incredible movie.
That is the kind of studio that I would love to work in. I love the Ferrari in that colour – it’s tasteful and not too showy. Rolling out = no fumes in the studio – nice. I wonder how it rolls back in? I’ve seen an identical videoed location but with a Maserati Grand Tourismo. I wonder if this is the same architect and he has replaced the Mazza or a different architect with the same style of studio build? Great video, thanks.
Another great Petrolicious video. Love the Boxer (especially in that colour) which is one of the most underrated Ferraris of all. Unlike Holger I would prefer the earlier Carb version as I find the extra details of the BBi a little fussy. Also the carb car has proper imperial measured wheels and tyres plus it is a little more powerful too.
Curious I saw a picture of a Ferrari 250 California LWB in the same place on Instagram recently any chance there will be Petrolicious video of that masterpiece too?
Not easy to link to instagram but here it is I hope http://inst.ag/u/carsbywyatt/p/ZjJX1sypj6/
