[edit] Overview
The Carbon X12 is the carbon version of the X12. This carbon modification makes the original X12 have a chrome exterior, better statistics in every field, and a Stunt boost type rather than Speed.
The cruising speed is at maximum and the boost is very good as well. It is also surprisingly light and can practically fly off of the tops of sloped roads. This new version also has its handling tuned even higher than the already insane X12's handling. This theoretically makes the Carbon X12 a good choice for Stunt Run events, but the ridiculously high-tuned handling takes a little getting used to since it can make pulling off precise maneuvers a little difficult. But after you get used to the handling it is one of the best cars in the game.
[edit] Description
While the Carbon X12 is stronger, its strength is still its main (and probably only) weakness. This degrades its effectiveness in Marked Man events, but its new boost type and ability to make sharp turns into opponents with its overclocked handling actually makes it an average but acceptable choice for Road Rage. It makes up for all of these disadvantages with its overwhelming speed and boost, however. Boosting at all times is not necessary due to its excellent cruising speed and also not recommended because going too fast only makes the car more dangerous to drive. For best results, save the boost for straighter paths and disengage on sharp turns. While the high tuned handling mentioned before makes the Carbon X12 extremely responsive, it, like the original X12, takes a little while to get used to. Once under control, however, it is one of the fastest and most manuverable cars in the game that can now put up a better fight. In conclusion, the Carbon X12 is one of the best choices for Race events.

[edit] Resemblance
The X12 model, like the Tempesta, somewhat resembles certain Ferrari models. The very front looks similar to the Ferrari 430 while the rest looks more like the Enzo.
