Ferrari 612 replacement to be unveiled tomorrow?

Likely a preview before the Geneva debut

Today is January 20th, but it feels like Christmas Eve as Ferrari has announced plans to unveil a new model tomorrow morning.  The announcement along with a teaser image was sent via email to Ferrari customers and subscribers.
Details are limited, but the car is expected to be the highly-anticipated replacement for the 612 Scaglietti. As we have previously reported, the vehicle will likely feature all-wheel drive, a seven-speed double-clutch transmission and a 6.3-liter V12 engine with 670 hp (500 kW / 679 PS). This should enable the four-seater to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 3.7 seconds, before hitting a top speed of 335 km/h (208 mph).
Automotive graphic artist Jon Sibal was kind enough to send us an updated version of his rendering which we posted yesterday to reflect the design details of the fender side vent revealed in the teaser image. Check it out in the photo album.
As always, stay tuned to WCF for full coverage of tomorrow's unveiling.
