Re: BM - Ferrari 599GTB

I was surprised at Best Motoring's finding that 599 is rather a sports car than a GT car and the handling excellent on tracks, contrary to Tiff Needel's claim that 599 was a disspointing choice as a sports car compared to 430.

Re: BM - Ferrari 599GTB

Cool video, looks like a very thorough investigation of the car. Very cool. I must also say, that a few days ago I was able to get some time alone with the car at my dealer (usually it is crowded). It is a beautifully crafted car, pictures do not do it justice.

I support Tiff's opinion.

Could you tell us a little bit more of what they say in the video?

I don't say the 599 is an unsporty car - quite the contrary, it's impressive in every way. But it's also big and quite heavy (though most of the time it doesn't feel very heavy due to the immense power of the Enzo-V12), which makes the lighter and more agile F430 the better sports car to me, just as Tiff Needell said.
