Default 2007 Ferrari 599 Compact Coupe, 620bhp

Whats ya views guys???


The styling will take some getting used to, but there's no arguing with a 620-hp V12.

What We Know: The Ferrari 599 GTB will boast 5,999cc of displacement -- hence the name -- from its V12 powerhouse derived from the legendary Enzo engine. Officials say it will be capable of "no less than" 620 horsepower at 7,600 rpm giving a weight-to-power ratio of 2.6 kg per horsepower. Torque ratings have not yet been determined. The whole package will ride on an all-aluminum chassis, making the 599 GTB lighter than the 575 Maranello that it is replacing, officials said. The 599 will come with a choice of two six-speed transmissions, either a manual-shift or F1-style paddle-shift transmission. The majority will be built with the F1-style, officials said. Other options give buyers a choice of 19-inch front wheels paired with 20-inch wheels in back or 20-inch wheels all around.





Have got lots of new releases of car models

The spec looks good, but the actual car looks like a glorified Fiat Coupé.

As with many recent Ferrari's, it has begun to grow on me. The front view looks cool, but the rear will still take some time!

Prefer the looks of the 612 Scaglietti. Still not a bad looking car though, as modern Ferrari's go they seem to have gone downhill of late

That is, of course, with the exception of the Enzo FXX, no?
