One wouldn't think it'd be possible to improve on the 789-horsepower V12 powerplant equipped to the Ferrari 812 Superfast. Then again, we aren't one of the undaunted engineers working at Ferrari. They've been busy of late and have just unleashed this, the epic new 812 Competizione. Based on the 812 Superfast, this limited-edition model brings even more power to the party along with a higher rev limit approaching superbike levels, enhanced aerodynamics, and even more imposing styling. Revealed in tandem with the 812 Competizione A, a Targa variant, this is Ferrari at its unfiltered best.

An Aerodynamic Beauty
While retaining the 812 Superfast's distinctive silhouette with a stretched hood and tall tail, the greater aerodynamic requirements of the 812 Competizione have introduced numerous alterations that give it an edgier appearance. One of the most notable changes is the use of an all-aluminum surface in place of the Superfast's rear window. With the placement of vortex generators on this surface, the Competizione not only looks more striking but is more aerodynamically efficient - rearward visibility is another story but perhaps that isn't a problem for an 819-hp Ferrari that will leave almost everything else in its dust.
