"Weird" 612 spotted, possible new engine, F60?
 

A modified 612 has been spotted twice, the difference is that this one has two huge intakes in the bonnet. Speculation goes from a new power plant for the 612 up to the F60.

If it's a test mule for the F60 powerplant that's pretty sneaky putting it in the 612. I'd be surprised if it's a new powerplant for the 612 because it's my understanding that they don't sell as well as other models. But what do I know? Cool find, man! It'll be interesting to see what this ends up being.

look at the lights .. thats no normal 612 ...
what amazes me is the damn engine is in the front :lol: ...

Wouldn't surprise me either. Didn't they use a modified 348 to test the Enzo's engine? I don't think anyone knew a thing either until the Enzo came out and that car was put up on the auction block.

maybe a 4 wheel drive system?

^^ for a SUV right :roll: ?

^Works for the Skyline.

Precisely what stops me thinking it's a test mule for a new supercar engine.

^^ why would they test an engine on a rolling chassis .... everything can be simulated in one of their hi fi labs ;) ...

andd if its only the engine they are testing .. why are the body pannels covered ;) ..
they could've tested the engine without anyone knowing ;)

Yep, definitely hard to believe it's the future MR supercar's engine, tested i FR setup... true they used a modified 348 for the Enzo, but with the engine in the correct place at least.

the Enzo's engine is in the 612 and 599, why wouldn't they test the F60's in an FR?? If it was the chassis they were testing it would be different... but apparently there are no other physical changes in the 612...
