The Ferrari 812 Superfast is Ferrari's front-engine V12 Berlinetta from the late 2010s, built in 2017-2022 with a production spread across 812 Superfast Coupé, 812 GTS Spider, 812 Competizione (limited), and 812 Competizione A (limited open specification). The name 812 refers to 800 hp and twelve cylinders; the name Superfast honours the Ferrari 500 Superfast (1964-1966, classic Ferrari V12). It is the successor to the F12 Berlinetta (2012-2017) and predecessor of the 12Cilindri (2024-present). The package includes naturally aspirated 6.5-litre F140 GA V12 (further developed from F12 F140 FC) with 800 hp, F1 seven-speed DCT, exclusively rear-wheel drive, and E-Diff electronic limited-slip differential. For collectors the 812 Superfast represents Ferrari's last regular production front-engine naturally aspirated V12 Berlinetta before the 12Cilindri. A Ferrari 812 Superfast is not sold to just any buyer; it is passed on to someone who knows the Ferrari front-engine V12 culture.
Ferrari unveiled the 812 Superfast in March 2017 at the Geneva Motor Show as the successor to the F12 Berlinetta (2012-2017). The name 812 refers to 800 hp and twelve cylinders; the name Superfast honours the Ferrari 500 Superfast (1964-1966, classic Ferrari V12 that Hollywood icons such as Peter Sellers owned). For collectors the 812 Superfast represents Ferrari's front-engine V12 Berlinetta from the late 2010s and last regular production front-engine V12 Berlinetta before the 12Cilindri (2024-present).
The central technical point of the 812 Superfast is the naturally aspirated 6.5-litre F140 GA V12 - further developed from F140 FC in F12 Berlinetta. The result: 800 hp and 718 Nm of torque, redline 8,900 rpm. The F140 GA has VANOS variable valve timing, individual throttle bodies per cylinder, dual injection (direct + port injection), and shorter intake manifold. For collectors the F140 GA in the 812 Superfast is Ferrari's power-oriented regular production V12 (30 hp more than F12 F140 FC with 730 hp).
In 2021 Ferrari unveiled the 812 Competizione - limited hardcore specification of the 812 Superfast (around 999 cars worldwide). The name Competizione is Italian for competition. The package includes further developed F140 HC V12 at 830 hp (30 hp more than 812 Superfast), raised redline 9,500 rpm (highest redline in a regular production Ferrari V12 until 12Cilindri), rear-wheel steering (Passo Corto Virtuale, first time in V12 since F12 TDF), lighter chassis (around 38 kg weight saving via CFRP bonnet, CFRP interior panels, and stripped interior), and Italian tricolor livery as option. In 2021 Ferrari also unveiled 812 Competizione A (around 599 cars) - limited open specification of the 812 Competizione with removable targa roof panel. For collectors both are substantially scarcer and higher priced.
In 2019 Ferrari introduced the 812 GTS - open Convertible specification with electric retractable hardtop (RHT, 14 seconds to open or close). It is Ferrari's first regular production front-engine V12 Convertible since Ferrari Daytona Spider 365 GTS/4 (1971-1973, classic open V12). For collectors the 812 GTS is popular due to open driving experience; 812 Superfast Coupé is generally higher priced.
Since the production stop in 2022 the 812 Superfast has seen a substantially stable appreciation curve. Well-documented 812 Superfast and 812 GTS examples in original specification sit at price levels consistent with Ferrari Maranello price list. 812 Competizione (999 cars) and 812 Competizione A (599 cars) are in substantially higher price tiers. For collectors the 812 is historically significant as Ferrari's last regular production front-engine V12 Berlinetta before the 12Cilindri (2024-present). For sellers this means a well-documented 812 with proven service history at Ferrari Maranello or recognised Ferrari specialist, original original specification, Tailor Made confirmation (where applicable), and Power Warranty transfer attracts strong international interest.
812 Superfast Coupé (2017-2022), 812 GTS Spider (2019-2022, open Convertible with retractable hardtop), 812 Competizione (2021-2022, limited hardcore Coupé, around 999 cars), or 812 Competizione A (2021-2022, limited open specification, around 599 cars).
The 812 is available in regular Ferrari colours: Rosso Corsa, Giallo Modena, Nero Daytona, Argento Nürburgring, Bianco Avus, Blu Tour de France, Grigio Silverstone, Rosso F1-75, and Tailor Made specifications. For collectors non-red and Tailor Made specifications are substantially value-adding.
The F140 GA V12 (naturally aspirated, 6.5 litres, 800 hp, redline 8,900 rpm) is further developed from F140 FC in F12 Berlinetta. For collectors, F140 GA condition, VANOS service, oil consumption status, and timing chain condition are essential.
The 812 Competizione (2021-2022, around 999 cars) is the limited hardcore specification with further developed F140 HC V12 at 830 hp (30 hp more), raised redline 9,500 rpm, rear-wheel steering, lighter chassis (around 38 kg weight saving), CFRP elements, and Italian tricolor livery (option).
The 812 Competizione A (2021-2022, around 599 cars) is the limited open specification of the 812 Competizione with removable targa roof panel. The package includes identical F140 HC V12 at 830 hp as the 812 Competizione Coupé with targa specification.
Ferrari Maranello-recognised service is essential. For 812 Superfast: F140 GA V12 service (VANOS, oil consumption status, timing chain condition, individual throttle bodies), F1 DCT mechatronics service, E-Diff system service, Brembo Carbon Ceramic Brake status, and Power Warranty status.
For 812 collectors low-to-moderate mileage (under 25,000 for regular 812 Superfast, under 12,000 for 812 GTS and Competizione specifications) with full service history is more attractive. For Competizione and Competizione A low mileage is substantially value-driving.
Note: These factors may influence buyer interest. Value depends on many factors.
