I think that was just a first drive. This should be a full road test with performance data, lap time, etc. Hopefully.

Ferrari CascoRosso is a 250 GTO Inspired Study for a F12berlinetta Replacement
The F12berlinetta, a successor to a long line of legendary V12-powered models from Ferrari, including the 599 GTB Fiorano, 575M Maranello,550 Maranello, Testarossa and BB, just to mention a few, has only been in the market for a little over a year , but we're pretty sure that the Italians are already working on its replacement.
They're not the only ones, as aspiring designer Dejan Hristov found some time to visualize his idea of what Ferrari's next V12 two-seater should look like.
You can read Dejan's thought process behind the creation of the F12berlinetta's successor, which he named CascoRosso, in the description below, but we'll tell you that he drew his inspiration from the 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO and that he imagined the car to feature a V12 hybrid powertrain.
From Dejan Hristov:
"The Ferrari CascoRosso is a two seater commercial car, which is inspired from the models of Ferrari Motor Sport as they developed through history. It is a symbiotic of style from the modern Ferrari bodies and the legendary Ferrari classics. One of those classics is the Ferrari 250 GTO from witch I got the main inspiration for this model. The idea was for the CascoRosso to be reincarnation of the 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO, a modern, futuristic version of it.
Next year, Ferrari is celebrating 50 years since the birth of the 250 GTO, the world’s most expensive car. I imagined the model as a successor to the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta with front engine, but also as a hybrid with battery placement behind the cabin, that enables better distribution of the weight.
Instead of wing-mirrors, the model has two cameras with wide focus range generating one picture on the camera display showing side view mirror picture and rear view mirror picture. This system simplifies the driving giving better clarity, improves the aerodynamics because there aren't wing-mirrors and the cameras are integrated in the car-body and there is no need for rear window.
The front lights are hidden behind a shutter which opens automatically when the light are turned on.
The doors are imagined to open in attractive way and you don't need much space to open them. When opening, one part of the door enters the body of the car and that is one of the characteristics of this design that makes it unique."
For me: it looks stunning.

Obscenely powerful, the F12 is pushing the boundaries for the performance of a front-engined car. If the successor is to pack more power, and be able to handle it then Ferrari are very likely to introduce some very innovative aerodynamic solutions. The impression above looks rather plausible, especially if you look at the design language of the La Ferrari.
What I love about the impression is the rear. Ferrari's rear-ends haven't evolved that much the past years and being creative with the diffuser and and stacked exhausts can certainly add a some more spice.
Not to Mr.Smart hat but where are the damn head lights on that car? The front end of the car reminds me of this photo:

Agreed but one looks visually way more exciting than the other.

Ferrari F12 TRS one-off packs KERS and costs 4.2M USD
Ferrari F12 TRS
Most expensive Ferrari ever?
A couple of images with a one-off Ferrari F12 Berlinetta called "TRS" have surfaced the web.
Ferrari's Special Projects division has been quite busy lately with one-off models such as the SP12 EC, SP America, SP FFX and now photographs with a new model called F12 TRS have emerged. Details are limited at this moment but we notice the vehicle adopts a targa open-top configuration and looks more aggressive (and perhaps better) than the regular Berlinetta.
According to Jalopnik, the special model was commissioned by a wealthy customer who was willing to pay no less than 4.2M USD which would make the LaFerrari chump change at 1.4M USD. Besides looking a lot different compared to the standard F12, the guys from FerrariChat are indicating this vehicle has been fitted with an F1-inspired KERS (Kinetic Energy Recovery System) which means that for a limited amount of time the car offers more than the stock 740 PS (544 kW) from its 6.2-liter V12 engine.
The car's name hasn't been confirmed but this is probably it since last week Ferrari trademarked the symbol at home in Italy.

True it will. Let's just hope they've worked out the kinks in ther Hy-kers system for this car. You don't want to own a 4.5mil art piece.
And thanks bro. It's good to be back.
