Why isn't this selling

Its really just a whored out 599 with really no significance and an inflated price tag.

 

And because that livery is butt ugly!!!

 

What known as "bold new graphics". Not much additional content.

 

I swear sometimes Ferrari is as bad as GM.

Ferrari: We have a racing driver inspired special guys!
Us: Is it faster than the standard car?
Ferrari: No
Us: Is it a race car?
Ferrari: No
Us: Whats special about it?
Ferrari: Some oddly rendered graphics. O, and it costs a billion dollars. Now theyre selling out but if you kiss out ass you might get to buy one at $50k over sticker.

 

Im sure they want $350k or more for what is just a normal 599 with very tacky looks. I wouldnt have a problem if the 599 raced with that livery and this was an homage car but it didnt so i dont see the difference between this and a 599 Autoparts special.

And since you can get the same car sans the bad taste stickers for 50% of their asking price..or an F12..

 

Because to restore the car will cost significant bucks.

 

Because it's stupid expensive for nothing more than some tacky graphics. It has ZERO collector value. It's just a gimmick car that Ferrari stuck all its dealers with

I saw it when it first landed at Algar. The folks there were not all that thrilled to see it, and I wondered aloud if it would ever sell at the crazy MSRP it had.

I guess we know the answer to that question.

Got to agree. This one is $100k less and still not a choice I would make.....Steve

I'd take it for 100k

 

I confess to actually liking the look of this car. But I would not pay a premium for all of the reasons stated by others.

 

Same colors as my coke can I'm drinking out of right now. The can looks better..

 

Yeah, it's actually pretty sad. All the Alonso Editions have been sitting in inventories for months, and months, and months.

It's really an unnecessary edition after the 599 GTO (especially considering its MSRP is not far off from the 599 GTO's MSRP).

 

Gaudy and expensive. Case closed.

 

It looks like it has an HGTE exhaust, I don't know if it has the HGTE suspension and ecu's.
Also maybe carbon skirts looking at the photo. Clearly the interior finish is different.

Unfortunately i don't know the full spec. but the colour scheme and price is not for me!
Maybe Terry knows the differences over the standard GTB?

 

Not a fan at all. I'd need a 30% discount from a "regular" 599 to even consider it. Then it'd get a wrap.

 

Never like the FA edition.. A absurd price tag for nothing. I would go for Niki Lauda edition 458!

 

Anybody know the difference in this and the regular 599?

 

Exactly!!

 

Actual name is 599 GTB HGTE 60 F1. Sixty years since Froilan Gonzales won Silverstone on 14 July 1951. Three liveries, darker red like 1951 and no white trim; Alonso 10 July 2011 colors with white trim and tricolore; 2011 Alonso red, white only on bumpers, no tricolore. Standard engine with HGTE features and choice of soft or stiff suspension. Special HGTE-like interior.

 

I like it , but I wouldn't buy it at that price.

I would buy a GTO instead of it.

 

Class and restraint?

 

Now that is funny!!!!!

 

Because apparently no one is in a rush to be "That guy"....
