    Exclusive pics of the 599GTB

    From the lattest issue from the French edition of Sport Auto, which has nothing to do with the German one and has no interest, but the pictures are beautiful.

    It is Grigio Silverstone.

    The engine.

    Side view 1.

    Re: Exclusive pics of the 599GTB

    Side view 2.

    Re: Exclusive pics of the 599GTB

    IMHO, Ferraris cabins have a sense of occasion Porsche lack of.

    The upper part of the steering wheel has LEDS like the Enzo.



    Re: Exclusive pics of the 599GTB

    They must be proud of it.

    Re: Exclusive pics of the 599GTB

    Great pics. The gap between the 599GTB and the F430 seems a lot narrower then ever before more so then 360 vs 550, 355 vs 456 etc.

    Re: Exclusive pics of the 599GTB

    Look at the Daytona-style racing buckets !

    Like the steering wheel, they are fully electrically adjustable.

    Re: Exclusive pics of the 599GTB

    Thanks Ziggy.Let's hope that Laurent Chevalier puts it sideways soon.

    Re: Exclusive pics of the 599GTB

    "Refinement" is the right word coming to mind.

    Re: Exclusive pics of the 599GTB

    The rear view is stunning imho.

    Look at the table for some specs.

    Re: Exclusive pics of the 599GTB

    Beautiful....

    Re: Exclusive pics of the 599GTB

    WOW

    Re: Exclusive pics of the 599GTB

    A direct rear view shows how perfectly proportioned the single tail lights are. Just amazing!

    Yes,

    This car piques my interest more than did the 430.

    Re: Exclusive pics of the 599GTB

    Thank you VERY much for the scans ziggy!

    This car is simply mind blowing, inside and out.

    Judging from the second to last scan, it seems Ferrari has finally gotten the CF to "flow" in a straight line, if you know what I mean.

    Anybody willing to place bets whether Ferrari has overstated, understated or gotten the performance figures bang on?

    EDIT: Finally, a V12 that loves to rev (not counting the F50, Enzo, etc...)! 8500 RPM if I'm not mistaken VERY impressive

    scan

    the scans make it look like a carbon fiber body

    thanks for the info ziggy!

    Re: Exclusive pics of the 599GTB

    Thansk for the scan Ziggy

    The 599 GTB is going to look stunning in Silverstone, especially with the Challenge wheels

    Re: Exclusive pics of the 599GTB

    No problem guys, the pleasure was all mine

    In fact, this issue is a special Ferrari-one, with Jean Todt as Editorial Director, hence these "exclusive shots" ( the magazine had always had privileged connections with him, since his Peugeot period).
    It was very interesting to hear him speak about Ferrari, i.e. the myth, the F1 team, the road cars, but also the other brands and automobile in general.

    Assman, sorry to "disappoint" you, but the power peak is reached at 7600 rpm.

    Wow! Seems like a great issue! Care translating a few lines for us non-french speakers?

    I know its power peak is @ 7600, but the redline is ~8500

    Thanks again, Ziggy. I'll be looking for the magazine at the newsstand.

    Very interesting to learn that the main purpose of the vents in the front fenders is so that the occupants of the car can better hear the sound from the engine air intakes !!
