The 819 hp Ferrari 12Cilindri Spider.
The 12Cilindri Spider's 6.5-liter V-12 makes available 80 percent of its torque at only 2,500 rpm.
The retractable hardtop can open or close in 14 seconds at speeds up to 28 mph.
Producing 500 ft lbs of torque, the Ferrari 12Cilindri Spider is a hulking monument to thrust.
The cockpit has gone predominantly digital, with a 15.6-inch instrument panel, a 10.25-inch central touchscreen, and an 8.8-inch screen along the passenger side of the dashboard.
The 12Cilindri Spider counts larger-than-life flagships as its predecessors, primarily the Testarossa and the 365 GTB/4 Daytona.
Ferrari claims the 12Cilindri Spider can accelerate from zero to 62 mph in 2.95 seconds and reach a top speed of more than 211 mph.
With the top down and the gas pedal depressed, there is seemingly nothing that can stop the 12Cilindri Spider's flow of power.
In the final analysis, the digitalization of the driver experience in the 12Cilindri Spider—the plethora of screens, the loss of physical touchpoints—is a small tradeoff for its adherence to a vanishing engine configuration.
