GazB Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 Followed a Ferrari 512BB up the M1 for a few miles this afternoon but it was to busy to see what they still go like. What a shame! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest spider Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 512 BBs have a tad wallow feel at very high speeds. Great classic though with a mighty Flat Boxer 12. They sound great with a Tubi exhaust as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazB Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 1st one i've seen on the road, only ever seen pictures before, just wish i could have heard the flat 12 go!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
