Ferrari Mailing List: Re: 599 GTO

[Michael James (cavallino_rapante]

Meh- all the GTOs were race cars.  This isn't even close to being a grid-starter.  The 430 GT3 cars are a LOT closer in-spirit to what the GTOs were developed-for than this machine was, I highly doubt any of these new cars will ever turn a wheel in anger.  Somebody is just trying to make a buck.

 

Call me a purist, but I'll bet that 550 Maranello looks great now only because the newer cars are also uglier.....and larger.

I think I like the 308 based model better...

That should be a given....question is, when will a 599 make sense?

Seems like a great car, but is it an excellent Ferrari?

The traditionalist in me resisted the Maranello when it was released but it grew on me only a few years into the model run. Not sure if this will do the same.

Impressive stats though, this thing can perform.
