Should I buy one?
Hell yes. The rivals are few and far between, nonexistent at this performance level, and few feel this comfortable to push hard in. The 812 feels less natural, perhaps, than an Aston Vanquish S’s, which feels an altogether lazier, perhaps more analogue experience. Preferring a Vanquish to an 812 would be like taking a roll-top bath over a Jacuzzi: there are reasons why you would, but technologically and experientially, the Superfast offers more.
More than anything else in this class? No doubt, although “nothing is ever perfect,” says de Simone. That’s true, but no other super-GT car has yet come this close.
