"Think of the Ferrari 612 Scaglietti as a kind of a thank-you note to the man who penned some of the most famous and memorable designs to come out of the Maranello scuderia. (Interestingly, Scaglietti is no longer in the design business, so former rival Pininfarina penned the bodywork as a tribute to their comrade.) Like Sergio Scaglietti’s most famous design, the 250 SWB, his namesake car is a front-engine, rear-drive coupe powered by a large-bore V12—in this case, a 5.7-liter unit. Unlike its predecessor, and indeed unlike any Ferrari previously, the 612 is constructed entirely from aluminum, using the lightweight metal for the space frame chassis as well as the bodywork. Ferrari engineers also pushed the wheels way out to the corners, and moved the engine back in the chassis, for better weight balance. Even though the 612 is a big 2+2 grand tourer, it doesn’t feel so large behind the wheel, retaining a nimbleness that’s characteristic of modern front-engine Ferraris despite its seeming bulk. Few people deserve such an honor, and the 612 is proof that Scaglietti certainly does."—Official description[1]
The 2004 Ferrari 612 Scaglietti - abbreviated as "Ferrari 612" - is a rear-wheel drive grand tourer by Ferrari.
It appears in Forza Motorsport (2005) and all subsequent Xbox 360 Motorsport titles.
It returned in Forza Motorsport 7 as a reward from the November Bounty Hunter Rivals event for those with a clean lap time under 01:40.000.
Synopsis[]
The 612 Scaglietti is a front-engined 2+2 grand tourer produced by Ferrari between 2004 and 2010 as the successor to the 456 M. It was replaced in 2011 by the Ferrari FF, an all-wheel drive 2+2 grand tourer, making the 612 the last rear-wheel drive Ferrari with more than two seats.
The Ferrari 612 Scaglietti has a larger size than its predecessor, the 456 M, making it a true 4-seater car with adequate rear space for adults. The 612's design, especially the large side scallops and headlights, pays homage to the custom 1954 Ferrari 375 MM that director Roberto Rossellini had commissioned for his wife Ingrid Bergman.
The 612 Scaglietti's chassis is made entirely from aluminum, with its space frame being made from extrusions and castings of the material and the aluminum body being welded on.
The 612 Scaglietti's engine is a 5.7L (5,748 cc) naturally aspirated Tipo F133F V12 engine shared with the Ferrari 575 Superamerica. With a compression ratio of 11:1, the V12 produces 532 hp (397 kW) at 7,250 rpm and 434 ft·lb (588 N·m) of torque at 5,250 rpm.
The 612 comes with either a six-speed manual transmission or a six-speed F1A semi-automatic transmission with a paddle shift system, a much refined version of that of the Ferrari 360 Modena. Either transmission delivers power to the rear wheels.
