Now available are the first photos and information on the new 599 GTO, an extreme V12 berlinetta developed to a specific performance-oriented brief. The 599 GTO is, in fact, the company's fastest ever road car. It is an exclusive limited edition special which, in true Ferrari tradition, is a completely new concept, albeit inspired by a production car. In fact the 599 GTO is based on the 599XX, the advanced experimental track car, and can be considered almost a road-going version.

The 599 GTO is reserved for just 599 clients who seek the maximum expression of high-performance driving. The 599 GTO benefits directly from the technological transfer from racing and set a record lap time at Fiorano in 1'24".

The Fiorano lap time provides just one indication of the potential of this car. Just as significant are the technical specifications - 670 hp in a 1495kg car represents a weight-to-power ratio of just 2.23 kg/hp, and ensures a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of just 3.35" as well as a top speed of over 335 km/h.

Fundamental to the GTO's performance is the innovative approach to chassis development which, for the first time on a production car, saw the integration between a handling set-up tuned for a level of responsiveness that is close to the limit and highly sophisticated electronic controls. The result is the almost complete absence of understeer and a truly communicative chassis.

As is Ferrari's policy, every new Ferrari features new solutions for a road car. Thus the 599 GTO is equipped with the latest, second-generation carbon-ceramic brakes which are lighter and offer better performance, new aerodynamic innovations, such as the wheel doughnuts which increase aerodynamic efficiency as well as improve brake cooling, and the Supersport tyres developed by Michelin include a wider front tyre for greater roadholding. The driver-car interface is also new with the adoption of the Virtual Race Engineer (VRE) which provides the driver with instantaneous information on performance.

The 599 GTO's more aggressive character is also apparent in a number of styling elements that recall the 599XX and from the powerful sound of the V12.

The GTO (Gran Turismo Omologata) moniker instantly calls to mind two Ferraris that have entered the collective imagination as symbols of performance. After the 1962 250 GTO, which swept the boards in GT racing categories in the 1960s and is now a highly prized collector's car, came the iconic 1984 GTO, which basically invented the entire modern supercar genre.

 

Mmmmm yummie

 

i have one of these here in iraq xD

 

Best looking ferrari yet.

 

Just when I was thinking that there were no more stock Ferrari's left for Evos to kill.

Nice ride.

 

I could eat one of those for breakfast!!!!!

 

These Italians are just ridiculously bada$$. I just can't think of any other car manufacturer that has a better line up of car more exotic than Ferrari. With these guys is like any model they come out is different and is also exotic.

You have to be a lucky mathar fackar in life to get one of these cars otherwise just keep dreaming or watching in on pictures videos or in person.

Carlos

 

I want one! Haha

 

lol.. lets not start this debate again.

Cant wait to see this car against the main rivals.

 

that thing is AWESOME. i want one

 

What's to debate?

 

<3 this car.

 

Sweet 05-06 Altima SER/CTS-V wheels lol.

Seriously though, its a nice car, but a front engine Ferrari isn't a real Ferrari in my book.

 

I'd rather buy a GT-R.

 

That is sexy for sure.
