    Congrats. Had a chance to get one, but i couldn't see myself paying just about 700K after going thru this whole process that the dealer wanted me to do in order to get the GTO without ever having owned a Ferrari at that point. Good Luck to ya. B-U-T-FULL car.

    When you selected the 599 GTO was it primarily for the performance aspect 670HP etc. or was there some other aspect or reason you decided to go with this particular car?

    BTW congratulations :) I don't have any problems with your selection mind you, just sort of wondering. I'm kind of sitting on the fence about maybe purchasing one and I'm not even sure GTO's are still available anymore, they may all have been spoken for already.

    Randy, my sincere congratulations. As you will see this is probably one of the best cars ever produced by Ferrari. It is not an upgraded 599 but a detuned 599 xx.
    A friend of mine has both and he is impressed by the GTO, which speaks a lot about the car.
    I picked up mine last Thursday and drove it about 150 miles before the storm hit us. I have not exceeded 4k rpm breaking in the engine, the brakes, etc, and still the sound, the handling, the ease to drive are second to none.
    I got mine in Silver, red interior, no stripes, daytona seats, with black inserts, quilted headliner and rear shelf.
    I noticed that you have a Daytona, and I like the way your wheels and tires look like in your car. Can you please tell me the specs of your wheels and tires.
    Thanks and congratulations again.
