I love my 456M. Gets me into a rare club of V12 Ferrari ownership at a price that us mortals can afford. These cars have so many cool \"quirks and features\" (if I'm allowed to use a rival sites phrasing). Fastest 4-seater in the world at the time, last Ferrari with pop-up headlights, the list goes on. They're not going to make cars like this anymore.\n\nIf you have time, its worth reading about the reverence that the V12s hold in the Ferrari world. The guy I bought mine from told me of his time touring the Ferrari factory when the did the owners tour. He mentioned how the tour guide told them that it was a single small team that was dedicated to the construction of the V12s, and then offhandedly gestured to another part of the factory and said \"oh all the other cars are done over there somewhere\".\n\nBoth my wife and I are over 6' and we can fit in the car with our 3 and 5 year olds in boosters in the back seats. We can do a few hours at a stretch before getting out for a comfort break. This is a very fun day trip car, and the kids are always excited to take \"dad's fast car\". I have even driven it in the rain! Another quirk of Ferrari ownership is you typically get allocated the best parking spots at the wineries and hotels. Not a bad bonus.\n\nI don't miss the manual on the open road, and I am grateful not to be negotiating a heavy clutch in traffic. By all accounts the auto 'box in these cars is reliable and I personally have had no issues. \n\nAll I have done to mine is DIY fluid changes (very easy), added some wheel spacers to fill the rear wheel wells, and deleted the center resonator for some free HP and a nicer exhaust note. I also added a cheap Apple lightning cable to replace the CD stacker so now I can charge my phone, and stream music and get Waze.
