Thumbs up My 612OTO is the most beautiful car in DA WORLD!! Bar none!!!! =)

.....so far..... before i get a F40, CGT, or pagani, it is true. It is just the most beautiful car i have. PERIOD.
Im not going to come on here and convince others that the 612 is good looking or what not, its stupid, go buy one and u will know.
and im not gonna tell my turmoil all over again about choosing between a 599 or 612, because the best solution is to have both.....
im sure i will get my 599 when im really bored.

On my OTO, I'm told i have all the options, but i really miss the "racing type exhaust" as specified in the OTO program.
Car is nice sounding but i wish it was louder.

Some impressions:

Comfortable in the city and very nice in the mountains, nothing like my 430s, but enough to scare myself.
Since i believe schumy breaks in cars at the factory during his time off, once the road went dry, the "break-in" was out the window! =)
Still the weight and size of the car cant be hidden, it handles like my M5 but feels a little lighter.
It really hits its stride after 80MPH, then it just takes off and the ride is silky smooth.
The interior is awesome and have so much techy gadgets thats unheard of in a 430, i was shocked to find tire psi and temp monitors,
stereo controls on the back spokes of the steering wheel......
The ALL leather floor, NO carpets!!
The carbon steering wheel and dash feels so smooth and nice, since i don't have that wheel in my 430s.
The ball polished wheels look amazing. The stereo is awesome! better than any logic 7 or whatever.
Of course there's the glass roof, but i wish it had stars lid like the drop head rolls at night.
The Daytonas feel very weird (I'm a 1st time daytona buyer, don't think I'll do it again!) because the bottom leg support intrudes and feels hard, but after 2 days, I am getting used to it.

Some other things :

Opening of the doors really takes finesse. At first it really bounces back after its fully opened, you really need to be smooth and make sure it doesnt slam back, plus the stupid opening is small, even smaller than my 430. But after 2 days, i know how to do it. I just hope the honeys get used to it too and not cut their legs or heads off.
The front back parking sensors goes coo-coo sometimes.
When filling up the car, since we only have full service stations here, make sure they have a 2" thick towel under the nozzle otherwise its gonna just rest on the car's broad shoulder lines.
Then there's the backseat, i thought i was gonna really make use of the huge 2+2s because i tried it when its in the showroom. But after taking delivery im very reluctant to fit my filthy friends with their sharp jimmy choos on my fine a$$ interior leather trims. So this is really a 2 seater. Only thing i had in the back is a tissue box.

I will add tons more pictures especially scenery ones thanks to my pro photographer Chang.
I really dont have much else to say about the car, except it is so freaking nice and did i mention its the most beautiful car i ever owned ???!!! HAHAHAHA!!

Wow! Your 612 is absolutely stunning! Do you have any more pics of the interior? I really like what I've seen so far.

Is the 599 yours as well? It looks great!

Car looks incredible. I love 612s, and silver is the perfect color. Congratulations.

I have always been the odd person that loved the 612. Are the rear seats actually functional or is there so little space they are pretty much useless?

Car looks superb in silver with polished rims. What does OTO stand for?
