    Stunning GTO, I like the colour scheme, works much better with the yellow roof and the black mirrors.

    Stunning indeed. Great looking GTO.

    That's exactly what I felt after driving the 599XX in Valencia 2 years ago. The GTO has so much XX DNA in it.

    To illustrate another similarity between the 599XX and the 599 GTO, I made a video featuring the sound. I laughed out loud the first time I downshifted into high revs...

    Hitting the rev limiter; that sounds just violent!

    I don't think I've posted this pic in this tread before so here it is. It's a pic I took last year and this is Exactly how I would spec my GTO.

    I love the roof in gloss black instead of flat grey

    Such a great sound. I assume mic at the exhaust.

    Really does resemble a XX.

    Awesome streetlegal version of the XX carrying no 97!

    XX sounds always give me an eargasm. Driving it at the Ricardo Tormo circuit in Valencia gave me something damn hard to explain.. Anyway a truly wonderful experience!

    Great clip onboard the GTO!

    As far as the sound concerns... while decelerating in race mode, paddle a quick downshift from 4th gear until 2th gear... Imo the GTO's real epitome!

    Stunning Andrew. You get to drive the 288 GTO a lot?

    Mmmm ... brings back good memories. We had a blast those couple of days.
