The tuner DMC has decided to put his hands on the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta. The powerkit for the engine should raise the power of the V12 6.2-liter from 740 to 764 hp thanks to an update of the control unit and a new titanium exhaust system. The changes should allow the F12 to reach 350 km/h of top speed. The body kit is made entirely of carbon and is characterized by a front splitter, the bonnet with air intake, the side skirts and the air scoop on the roof. The rear of the car has been styled to look like the Ferrari 599XX, with blacked out headlights and a spoiler. The alloy wheels are 22-inches in the rear and 21-inches on the front. The changes extend to the interior using exclusive finishes in Italian leather and carbon fiber.
