Wow! The 599 is fast. It seems to get faster with each test. Too bad they didn't do a top speed test.



1. I've been told tonight by one of our sources that there has been a typo and that the SLR numbers have been mixed up with the 599 numbers, with the exception of the top speed.
Since this hasn't been confirmed yet by AMS, we should wait until we know for sure.

2. Ferrari accompanied the 599 with a factory maintentance team to this test...sounds a little bit odd to me.

Nethertheless, the test results of the tested cars are pretty impressive, maybe with the exception of the Aston Martin Vantage which in my opinion disappointed.

The 997 Turbo performed like I expected...close to 40 seconds, pretty good compared to the old 996 Turbo.
Add 70 horses to the 997 Turbo and you'll end up with a 0-300 kph time close to 30 seconds.
