    This 599 GTO from British Columbia Canada was another 'out there' design effort. At the time it featured many of the future tailor made design themes all combined on one GTO!

    I perfectly remember those pics, 10 years 1/2 ago . I was so excited to discover the radical version of a car that i already loved

    F12 TDF may be the better car but the GTO is the one I lust after daily...

    1000% agree. Only the SA Aperta is slightly higher on my F-car lust-o-meter due to the aperta aspect. PF took the many cool details on the 599 GTB, and kicked them up a notch. Add 40 more ponies in power & lose about 50 kilos in weight. F hit it out of the park with the GTO upgrade to the 599...T

    I never giggle and laugh driving my TDF like I do with my GTO - such a fun character full car and can really be enjoyed on street. Agreed SA Aperta would be the win @tomc :)

    It is beyond doubt and by far one of the best sounding road cars that Ferrari have ever produced and sadly with regulations the way they are now, will never be repeated again.

    If the TDF were a Speciale...would the GTO be a Scud in terms of driving experience?

    Agreed, never.. and it is the best sounding car in my stable hands down; my 2014 Performante Spyder gets a little close to it.

    n!

    I guess you could say that, hard to really perfectly compare because I have never driven/owned a Scud so not sure. Eddie your next addition should be the Pista :)

    When I win either Mega Millions or Powerball, I'm buying that car. Money will be no object!!

    Edit: For those not in the US, the current jackpots are $750 and $550 million respectively.

    I'd get an Aperta but you can't go wrong with a GTO.

    Mister Big Stuff, don't forget who your friends are when you're rolling in dough!

    It truly has and as others say it is a tremendous car with the best sound tract of any modern V12 and I am still fascinated with the Super Fast 2 transmission that is in the GTO and my SCUD .. I often consider getting the TDF but as I have said I would not sell my GTO to get one.. I think as the GTO ages it just gets better .....
