The time has come for Doug DeMuro to get his hands on the Ferrari 812 Superfast and, as you can imagine, the journo did his best to bring you the quirks and features of the V12 animal. No, really, he did, as, for instance, he can be seen doing the knee-walk in the review.
Then again, having experienced the might of this car's predecessor, the F12 Berlinetta, we can tell you that this is the kind of machine that can easily make anybody weak in the knees.

Now, there are a few aspects we need to point out before inviting you to indulge in this YouTuber adventure.

For one thing, the round thing in Doug's hands does wonders because it's connected to a four-wheel steering. While the F12 didn't feature such tech, the Italians introduced it on the F12 Tour De France.

Nevertheless, calibration has evolved for the 812, with the new system being more refined. So whether you wish to use the steering wheel for gentle passing while blitzing the continent or are willing to drift this Fezza, you'll find it easier than before.

As for the admittedly odd instructions on the fuel filler door, these have to do with the pump's automatic shut off. To be more precise, you're not supposed to top off more than two times, while you should wait for ten seconds before removing the nozzle.

Also, while Ferrari controls are always a bit odd if you're interacting with them for the first time, the ones that open the doors from the inside of the vehicle are particularly strange. And that's because more than a few folks could mistake them for power window controls. Then again, we haven't heard of a people-falling-out-of-moving-Ferraris epidemic, so things are probably okay.

Oh, and for the record, this isn't the first Ferrari in history to use the "Superfast" particle.
