Ferrari Mailing List: Re: 288 GTO Vs 959

[E M (pokiebaron]

A friend of mine had the chance to spend some time with a 959 over in Germany on the Autobahn.  He said it was the most stable car he had ever driven.  He was amazed to look at the speedo, and see that he was doing 175 mph, in the rain.  As usable as a 911 Carrera, and "almost" as fast as an F40.  What a package!  :-)

Pity the comparison wasn't correct...F40 V 959 as he said. I remember the
F40 killed it by 7 seconds at Fiorano.

Good times!

For those fans of these 2 awesome supercars, here a couple of videos from

EVO that tells of both.  Video 1 is for the 959 and 2 (obviously) is for the

GTO.

Man!  The engine of the 288 is really a long way forward!  A plug change
must be a challenge!
