Ferrari F12 Berlinetta Parts & Accessories

The Ferrari F12 Berlinetta replaced the 599 GTB in 2012, raising the front-engine V12 Ferrari formula to a new performance level with a 6.3-liter naturally aspirated V12 producing 730 horsepower in an all-aluminum chassis that was significantly lighter and stiffer than the 599 it replaced. The F12's TurboHydro active aerodynamic system, which channeled high-pressure air from the front brake cooling ducts under the car to reduce lift without a conventional spoiler, represented a significant technical innovation, and the car's performance credentials were validated by a Fiorano lap time nearly two seconds faster than the Ferrari Enzo. Owners and tuners of the F12 Berlinetta benefit from a well-developed aftermarket with strong support from Capristo, Novitec, and other European specialists, reflecting the car's significant enthusiast following among buyers who want the most capable front-engine Ferrari experience. The naturally aspirated 6.3-liter V12's character at high rpm makes the F12 one of the last great expressions of Ferrari's naturally aspirated V12 grand touring tradition.

Popular Upgrades

Capristo, Novitec, and Fabspeed exhaust systems are the most popular F12 Berlinetta upgrades, transforming the V12's extraordinary sound with more aggressive and theatrical output without compromising reliability. Novitec and Anderson Composites carbon fiber exterior packages covering front lip spoilers, side sills, rear diffusers, and hood vents complement the F12's already aggressive aerodynamic body design. Ohlins Road and Track and Moton motorsport suspension systems replace the factory adaptive suspension for drivers who want precise external adjustability for circuit and mountain road use. Brake compound upgrades from Ferodo DS2500 and Pagid RST3, along with Brembo GT front and rear brake kits, support track day use at the F12's substantial performance levels.

Performance and Handling

The F12 Berlinetta's 730-horsepower V12 produces its peak power at 8,250 rpm while delivering strong torque from below 3,000 rpm, creating a power delivery character that rewards drivers who use the full rev range while remaining tractable at partial throttle in traffic. The TurboHydro aerodynamic system provides a degree of active downforce management that reduces front aerodynamic lift without the visual intrusion of a conventional front spoiler, allowing the F12's aerodynamic efficiency and high-speed stability to coexist with its clean body design. Aftermarket suspension upgrades on the F12 produce significant handling improvements at the track, where the precise setup options of externally adjustable dampers allow circuit-specific tuning that the single-setting factory system cannot match. Correct tire selection and pressure management on the F12's 20-inch wheels are important given the car's substantial aerodynamic downforce at track speeds.

What makes the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta faster than the 599 GTB?

The F12's 730-horsepower 6.3-liter V12 produces 110 horsepower more than the 599 GTB's 620-horsepower 6.0-liter unit, while the F12's aluminum chassis is approximately 70 kilograms lighter, combining for a power-to-weight advantage that translates directly to faster lap times and quicker acceleration. The F12's active aerodynamic management through the TurboHydro system provides higher downforce than the 599 GTB's passive aerodynamics at equivalent speeds, increasing the cornering loads the tires can sustain. The revised suspension geometry and wider track dimensions of the F12 chassis also contribute to the car's significant handling improvement over the 599 GTB platform it replaced.

What exhaust upgrades work best on the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta?

Capristo's electronically controlled exhaust is the most popular choice for F12 Berlinetta owners who want the flexibility to adjust sound levels from the factory-quiet setting to a fully open configuration for track use. Novitec's cat-back systems offer a permanently elevated sound profile for owners who use their car primarily on roads and circuits where maximum V12 engagement is the priority. Fabspeed's high-flow catalytic converter systems are popular in emissions-regulated markets where full decat configurations are not legal for road use, providing improved exhaust flow alongside meaningful sound improvements within emissions constraints.
