    What price range will the 599 GTO be next summer in the USA? With the F12 and 458 Speciale being released, I would think prices would drop. But to what level is your guess.

    With the F12 and the 458S released ... price should go up. The S will be special. No doubt. The F12 is a great car. No discussion. But both can't be compared to the GTO. Different cars.

    Hold onto your socks. My dealer says the GTO is headed south. My advice is to sell now.

    Frankly ... I don't care what your dealer says and I certainly won't sell mine. Prices will go down ... no doubt but what I get back from the car while driving it is ... PRICELESS!!!!!

    Ahhh, finally a sensible statement!

    The GTO is the last of the difficult, bad-ass, emotionally exhausting, better than sex, Ferraris. It is a modern day F40. When you get into trouble it won't whip out a computer chip to save you, but when you throw it into a long sweeping bend at 300 km/h and it tells you just how good it is, then you are ALIVE!!!

    In many ways it is a big Challenge Stradale. Both will put a smile on your face that will last forever.

    Quality is remembered long after price is forgotten.

    Top stuff guys. At one point one has to realize that owning GTO is more fun than an extra few hundred K in the bank...

    There are a couple of them parked side by side in the service bay at FoW. Was staring at them today. Wow. Bucket list.

    Great post! Really isnt much to add to that, suffice to say every journey is made special in a GTO. A Cape mountain pass in a GTO is, simply amazing!

    Spa in a GTO must be incredible.

    I just had mine out recently for 3 days of tracktime and i wouldn't trade or sell my GTO for any of the new "Robocars" on the market today. Getting it right in this Ferrari is simply an incredible experience that just can't be recreated driving anything else.

    Others will come and go but the GTO is a keeper. Its a genuinely unique experience and an amazing pleasure to drive. If for nothing else the noise alone is worth the price of admission.......:)

    Totally agree. It's such an aggressive design, completely transforms the 599. Just seeing one close up, you can tell that this not a car that is to be messed with. Even the Scuderia does not have that feel. Its more in line with the do not mess with me Enzo feel.

    Prices are still stable around sticker, agree with others above that the arrival of the 458S and F12 won't have much, if any, effect at all. If they do fall a little they will be snapped up. The GTO is a whole other category of Ferrari road car experience.
