Ferrari has brought back the manual with a new special variant of the 12Cilindri called the 12Cilindri Manuale. Yes, you read that right, a Ferrari has a manual gearbox again for the first time since 2012, when the 599 GTB and California were both offered with the DIY shift option. But this new manual gearbox is nothing like the one you remember, because it’s not a traditional manual at all. Instead, Ferrari has copied a Koenigsegg CC850 trick and has turned its eight-speed dual-clutch automatic into a manual simulation.
