    It's a beautiful car.

    However it appears that it's the 2nd one wich was resprayed and modified.

    I love everything but the rear wich is ugly IMO

    I think it's pretty special and very rare, but the global design is too extreme according to me.

    Umberto, Olivier is right (as usual). The first F12 TRS is red, and spy shots of the second TRS revealed that it was black. After the black F12 TRS was spotted, rumors circulated that a third was going to be built, and that up to six different TRS F12s would be made in total. I don't know if six will be made - I don't even know if a third will be made. What I do know is that the chrome F12 TRS in those pictures is the second/black TRS, but it's been repainted and has undergone some minor alterations. I've also heard that both cars belong to the same person, and that if more are made, they'll all be owned by the same person.

    Personally, I am a big fan of both TRSes, and I really like the unique and aggressive styling. If additional examples of the F12 TRS are made, I look forward to seeing them, and comparing the aesthetic differences. I don't know if any F12 TRS will make an appearance stateside, or if I'll have another opportunity to go to Europe any time soon, but this is one Ferrari I would love to see in person, and really study and soak in from all angles.

    whos the guy ? I mean, I wanna tell him that when you invest millions in a car, u should at least have Ferrari make an F12 Spider with hardtop like the Cali. Not just an Aperta only good for sunny days.

    Then again he would reply that for him every day is sunny.

    Apparently, the owner is Sam Li of London and Hong Kong, the same owner of the Rosso Scuderia Enzo (131318).

    Interesting Marcel that you say not London as I understand the order went through a UK dealer.

    There will only be two cars. Ferrari's nose is understandably well out of shape after these unauthorised mods.

    Yes, I posted on the other TRS thread that this car was altered by a third party, not by Ferrari, hence the extreme Lamborghini like over the top rear diffuser.

    'Not London' because his european 'HQ' is in Guernsey (or was it Jersey)?

    You always leave half the info missing, Marcel ;)

    So how many F12TRS' are out there? Two (chrome (former black car) and a red one) or three F12TRS'?

    It kind of makes sense why the second one went through the the modifications to make it more wild if they are both owned by the same person. The red one stays original:). Can't imagine Ferrari making a third one for him now;).
