2010 Ferrari 599 GTO
With the 599 GTO Ferrari
has taken the idea of a two-seat, front-engine V12 to another level.
The 599 GTO is essentially a road-legal version of the extraordinary
599XX but the GTO features numerous design and engineering aspects that
were pioneered for its track-only sibling. The V12 engine has been
“super-polished” internally and features a “diamond-like carbon” coating
on its hydraulic tappets. The 599 GTO is quite simply, the fastest,
most powerful road car that Ferrari has ever built. All things
considered, the 599 GTO may be the greatest all-round Ferrari ever made
and the manufacturers have made upgrades not just to its engine, gearbox
and chassis but also to its braking system, aerodynamics and
electronics. Not surprisingly, the 599 GTO is more economical and
cleaner than the regular 599 GTB. This car replaces the 575M Maranello
which didn’t receive the attention that the manufacturer had hoped for
and in theory it is possible to trace the 599’s heritage to the very
first front-engined Ferrari road car. The 599 GTO is priced at around 4 crore in India.
