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. Automotive journalist Basem Wasef pilots the 819 hp Ferrari 12Cilindri Spider in Portugal.

A 1935 Avions Voisin C25 Aérodyne in Photos
More from Robb Report Car of the Week: This Innovative 1935 Avions Voisin Could Fetch $2.5 Million at Auction The Fiat 124 Sport Spider's Beautiful Lines and Feisty Engine Make It an Enduring Classic Car of the Week: Arguably the Most Important Ferrari in Existence Could Fetch Nearly $8 Million at Auction Best of Robb Report The 2024 Chevy C8 Corvette: Everything We Know About the Powerful Mid-Engine Beast The World's Best Superyacht Shipyards The ABCs of Chartering a Yacht Click here to read the full article. This 1935 Avions Voisin C25 Aérodyne is one of the lots on offer at Gooding & Company's Amelia Island Auctions, being held March 6 and 7. The cabin is defined by distinctive, abstract-patterned fabric and blue-leather upholstery from Hermès Paris. The car features a sleeve-valve inline-six engine mated to an electromagnetic gearbox, the latter being offered for the first time with this model. Four porthole-style windows add light to the interior when the ingenious sliding-roof panel is closed. After being added to the 400-car collection of Craig McCaw and his brother Bruce, this C25 Aérodyne was returned to what was believed to be the original 1935 color scheme of black and soft yellow with bold orange striping. The hood ornament, as with the car in general, takes its inspiration from flight. At the 2022 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, the car was awarded the coveted Vitesse Elegance Trophy. This automotive rarity is estimated to fetch between $2 million and $2.5 million.
