History
The following section is an excerpt from Wikipedia's Ferrari 612 Scaglietti page on 7 June 2016, text available via the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License.
The Ferrari 612 Scaglietti (Italian pronunciation: skall-YET-e or sky-YET-e) is a 2+2 coupé grand tourer produced by Ferrari between 2004 and 2010. The 612 Scaglietti was designed to replace the smaller 456 M; its larger size makes it a true 4 seater with adequate space in the rear seats for adults.
The design, especially the large side scallops and the headlights, pays homage to the custom 1954 Ferrari 375 MM that director Roberto Rossellini had commissioned for his wife, Ingrid Bergman.
The 612 was produced at Ferrari's Carrozzeria Scaglietti plant, the former home of the car's namesake coachbuilder in Modena, Italy. It was then taken down the road to the Maranello factory and the V12 engine was put in along with the interior.
The Ferrari 612 was replaced by the Ferrari FF in 2011.
