The Official 599 GTB Fiorano Thread

For your information MarkPDX and I have spoken, things are cool with us now.
Why don't you try to mind your own business Mr. 30 posts....


To the rest, thanks.

 

the taillamps are a disgrace.

the quad-lamps make a modern ferrari! wtf!

 

Yes, but the older GTB's (275 etc) had singles....I actually like the single lamps.

 

I was in Maranello this thursday and there i have seen many new
"599 GTB Fioranos"!
Now i can say:
Forget all pictures you have seen from this car! It's looking a thousands better in real than of any photo!

I have seen it in following colors:
rosso corsa
rosso scuderia
rosso monza
giallo modena
blue sebring
blue tour de france
black
grigio silverstone
grigio titanio

I had only a cheap digital-photocamera with me and i shoot a few pictures, but they aren't very good. I also make vid's from the cars testing in fiorano. I was lucky to see a transporter with an red fxx inside. I make photos and a little later a man is testing the car in fiorano!

I don't know if any one's pointed this out before but the difference between the us and euro versions recession for the rear plate is interesting.

The yellow car pictured above being the US version with the line of the plate recession comming from below following the line of the defuser. The EU version flows from top down following the lines of the trunk lid as shown in the above pics of the red, and the blue car.

Also note the US car's rear bumper appears to protrude out slightly farther than that of the EU version.

 

Even these bad photos show the lines of the car very clearly. It becomes sharper by the minute, even in Giallo to my surprise.


Many thanks,


Cavallini

 

Great pictures!!!

The car is looking more and more stunning with every passing image! One observation: does the red 599 in the fourth picture have gunmetal challenge (front) rims?

 

No, this are the black ones that was mounted on every testcar before it's presented to the public! Before a ferrari was delivered to the customer they test it with test-rims and -wheels! If the testing is stopped they put the new wheels on the car!

 

I wonder if they are going to put side marker lights on the US version.

The factory has said that they will not produce US versions until September.

Could the yellow car be going to another country?

 

Ahhh! Thank you for the clarification, although I have to say that disapointed me, because I would actually like to see it with gunmetal rims.

 

I hadn't heard about the US production date starting in September. I guess it very well could be going to another country.....

The Euro design looks much cleaner.

I hope that they do not have to put side marker lights.

 

I just got some information. The car is likely to show up at Pebble Beach in August, it may be seen elsewhere even sooner.

The real interesting news is that it drives almost as good as the Enzo, it is far better than the 430.

aehaas

 

I love the way it looks i can't wait to see one.

 

Anybody know or have any predictions of the topless "Superamerica" or "Barchetta" version and when its planned to be released?

 

thats what i've heard too -- it better, since the performance will drive this car moreso than appearance (since its bigger than 575). should be one awesome GT car!

 

Hi,

Do you think there will be a Premium over MSRP when the 599GTB comes out, if so, how much do you think this will be?

 

When i was going to order one (at the time that i was interested in the car), the dealer told me to expect something from $295,000-$300,000 for the first three years until the demand for it starts to slowly decrease. And here the 612 was supposed to be the most expensive one and the top of the range car in the ferrari line up

 

MSRP will be lower then 612's by about $10k.
What the market price would be,only time will show........

 

Anybody wanna bet on the date the first F599 hits eBay?

Anybody wanna bet on the price of the first eBay F599?

 

Allocation on 599 for the next 3 years in Ferrari Monaco, already sold..............

 

My guess $80-100k over in the first year....
