The Ferrari 599 GTO is a high-risk model launched in 2010 in an exemplary handle for wealthy clients. It responds to two previous "GTO" erected icon for decades. But what really is this 599 GTO? Does it further the "wise" 599 GTB Fiorano or rather the 599 XX intended for track cyclists?

GTO . These three letters have a very strong symbolic Ferrari. But before seeing what this album is released in 2010, back in time. Let us more precisely in 1962, when the Ferrari 250 GT gets a version of GTO whose initials stand for "Gran Turismo Omologato". The success of the more opulent version and performance improvement is immediate, it remains an object of extreme rarity whose rare copies on the second hand market snapped against tens of millions of euros . Recidivism occurs with the 288 GTO, produced from 1984 to 1986 and which prefigured the future F40. It also is a great rarity in order to qualify the model in competition. If this is finished. Then comes 2006 with the presentation of the 599 GTB Fiorano GT two alternate seats in the 575 Maranello, always under the bonnet at the front, a V12.
, a black roof and two-tone wheels of large diameter, which will be discussed later. Grids are anthracite and niz bee. As for the low funds, they are redesigned with a large ventilation. Inevitably, the broadcaster took the volume to the rear, directly drawing inspiration from the world of competition. A rather flattering plumage so, especially when the color worn by our copy is the majestic Giallo Modena . A hue with history because remember that yellow is the original color of the city of Modena, dear Enzo. In summary, a rather sleek and attractive body that breathes good sportsmanship!
with his hearing and a reworked anthracite paint on the body element. Unlike mirrors, which themselves are in real carbon. Because in addition to a rise in power, Ferrari has focused on relief, which does not displease us. We find a more streamlined bonnet double scoop. In the cockpit, too, the relief was put though one might have expected more! Only 30 kilograms were saved by replacing the bucket leather / alcantara with a lighter model tissue and abusing carbon. Unfortunately, there is still a lot of superfluous leading to a total mass of 1.6 tons, damage. The element that is doing best at lightening level, are the rims!
The braking system is also seen wide background with ceramic discs, smaller but just as effective and especially more 3 kilos lighter than the 599 GTB Fiorano. Very durable, the Ferrari 599 GTO brakes hard. The cache that is perceived on the discs front and rear intended to protect the precious discs (sold a whopping € 15,000 pair ...) projections caillasse but also to improve ventilation. They followed multiple flaws of the brand on the short life of these particularly expensive consumables. Well, frankly, when we see them, the eye is approved, but we forget them soon enough in the end. The Ferrari 599 GTO is exceptional in many ways. Just open that long hood to realize ...
The least we can say is that our beautiful Italian has serious arguments. It has indeed many pieces borrowed from the 599XX, which, combined with that of the Enzo, leading to a fairly incredible result. The 0 to 100 km / h is 3.3 seconds, the F1 box has 6 more efficient shortcuts reports while the top speed bordering on insolence with over 330 km / h. Inside, all calls to violate signaling, beginning with the LEDs on the steering wheel that provides information on engine speed, the bucket with harness or the red zone at 8250 r / m. As usual, found on the steering wheel Manettino, this joystick which allows to choose the driving mode, the more flexible the Race , the punchy that you will stick to the seat each time the right foot on the accelerator.
Extremely powerful, the Ferrari 599 GTO premium exemption sumptuous vocals that reflect the work done internally. The crankshaft, the admission manifold and the pistons have been reworked from the 599XX without offering 700 horsepower. But the 670 horses fitted to the 599 GTO have nothing modest, quite the contrary. This Ferrari inflated testosterone gives chills to all diets and nothing seems to stop it. We could débaler the list of superlatives and express all its qualities but we never finish. The Ferrari 599 GTO has it all, whether its online or performance (except for its cover discs!) But in practice all is not as idyllic. Manage 670 horses on the rear wheels only requires good experience of driving and could very quickly surprise a neophyte!
Finish with a note on the back of this car: the exhausts. And when you learn that they come from the 599XX race, the smile is only wider still.
is pretty greedy. Maintenance is also relatively expensive with ceramic brakes had better never have to replace ...
