Ferrari Mailing List: Re: The key to her Ferrari

[Steve Cook (stevec]

"Don't want your love. Don't want your money. I just want the keys to
your Ferrari.
Gonna rub it, Shine it, Rev it, scoot it, skid it, jam it.. up the 101!"

Classic 80's sound of Dolby with a bit of a Jazzy undertone.  Even the
fade in is Robin Leach!

Has anyone on the list ever heard the song The Key to Her Ferrari by 
Thomas Dolby?

Ferrari Owners Need Another FXX
Ferrari Owners Need Another FXX

All automakers solicit feedback from the purchasers of their cars and 
trucks, as this makes for more appealing future vehicles. Ferrari, being

Ferrari, has taken this to new heights with their FXX program, which 
debuted in 2005; this entailed a series of special track-only cars, the 
Enzo-based FXXs, which were sold to "Client Test Drivers" (including F1 
champ Michael Schumacher) as rolling test-beds, and the cars' 
performance was monitored in 14 group test sessions and 14 private 
sessions. That program has been extended through 2009 with an evolution 
package for the cars, designed to further improve their aerodynamics, 
electronics, handling and performance.

The updated FXXs will sport new rear wing profiles and a redesigned rear

diffuser, improvements that help trim the FXXs' Fiorano track lap time 
from 1'18" to under 1'16". The cars' 6,262cc V-12 now makes 860hp at 
9,500 rpm, and shifting of the automated manual gearbox has been 
quickened from 80 to 60 milliseconds. A new traction control system is 
driver-controllable to nine settings, and Composite Ceramic Material 
brake discs and a redesigned suspension keep the car in control.

The FXX evolution package includes participation in a series of 
international track events, two of which will be in North America.
