    Looking at the back of the 599, it is not hard to imagine they designed it with some kind of retracting roof in mind. I'll bet on a GTS coming.

    My guess is it will be a Revocromico.

    I agree. Revocromico is likely. This could explain the relationship of the rear glass to the flying butress treatment on the GTB, i.e., incorporate flying butresses into both GTB and GTS

    Alternatively, retracting hard top.

    Can't imagine they'll go for a soft top...

    Personally, still hoping for a 612 GTS...

    "still hoping for a 612 GTS"

    judging by the response the 612 received from the media and the paying customer, i think we're likely to see a F612M first.

    IMHO

    Sorry, but by F612M do you mean a true manual 612? Or does the M signify something else?

    hello,

    please look at the recent history of 12 cyl. ferrari's that have a "M" after their name.

    regards,

    Modificato...It's usually for the half-life revamp model.

    If they did make a retractable roof for the 612 they would have to lengthen the rear a few inches right?
