V12V Roadster Video
Evo has a video review of the V12V Roadster on Youtube. I like my coupe better, but it is too bad that Americans can't buy one. Of course, we can't buy a new V12V coupe as of the 2013 MY anyway.

My understanding is that there will be no V12V in the USA for the 2013 MY.

Interesting. Wonder what the plan is for continued production and what the final tally will be for the V12V.

Where did you get that info?

V12
The engine does not meet emissions for 2013. So no V12. I think they will be back for 2014. That is speculation, not fact. Final numbers on V12 are just under 1100.

Okay, and where did you get that information? I think they're close to that number on the coupe alone now, and they're supposedly producing at least 100 roadsters.

Interesting, explains why my dealer couldn't pull up build info for a V12 MY2013, but everything else was in the system.

I wasn't counting roadsters but I did forget about the last ltd. edition 100 Coupes. So Coupe numbers are around 1,200. I'm sure we will get a final count soon.

They may still take orders for the 2012 MY if someone really wants one. I heard a rumor, not substantiated, that the roadsters were using the left over coupe drivetrains since there will be no 2013 V12V.
