I still haven't driven one...

I haven't driven the F12, and I unfortunately (you'll see why I say unfortunately in a moment) have driven the Lamborghini Aventador.
I've driven the Ferrari 599, multiple Californias, and even the Ferrari FF hatchback in the past (you'll note, I haven't driven the most popular models a la 458, 430, nor 360). And while all of these cars were exceptional cars, I... And it's hard to say this... I found the Lamborghini Aventador much easier to drive and to acclimate to.
Granted, if I had more time in a Ferrari 599, and learned to understand the car, listen to its feedback, etc. I may have enjoyed it even much more than I did.
But driving this Lamborghini Aventador, wow, let me tell you, that's the most amazing car I think I've ever driven. It's true, I've driven more technically advanced and expensive vehicles, but the Aventador really gets my blood boiling.
As a result of my less than an hour long experience with the Lamborghini Aventador. And this was the first Lamborghini I've ever driven. I have to say, I am completely smitten. I'm in love with this car. And here's the unfortunate part. I haven't stopped thinking about this car since August 2013 when I experienced it.
I've driven some wonderful cars since the Aventador. The Porsche Cayman is another fantastic favorite that I love very much. But there's a problem with the Cayman, it could use more power, it leaves me wanting more power. Plus the styling is not my cup of tea (the rear design especially the ducktail wing is not my thing). There have been more vehicles.
I have this crazed obsession with this Lamborghini Aventador. Once you've experienced it, there is no antidote, and withdrawal from the drug is painful. All I can say, is don't try this particular model of cocaine; or else you may be thinking about it more often than you'd like upon withdrawal. I have thought about this car EVERY SINGLE DAY since August 2013. There has not been a time more than 48 hours that I have not thought about the car. Perhaps, the Ferrari F12 will be the same?
