Ferrari (Automobile): Enzo Ferrari
built 606 days ago
Driving a Ferrari, the Italian stallion of sports cars, has been a dream held by many luxury car enthusiasts since Ferrari introduced street legal cars back in 1947. Today, Ferrari offers some of the sexiest, fastest and most exotic automobiles this world has ever seen. Sitting behind the wheel of such Ferrari classics as a 1952 Barchetta 212/225 or the futuristic Enzo is, to say the least, a dream of every luxury car enthusiast. But why dream when you can start driving today?

Enzo Ferrari: A Life - The name Ferrari, like no other, evokes images of speed. Beginning with the origins of Enzo Ferrari, Williams traces his rise to the top of the automotive sport world and how he shaped that world. Williams is the Guardian’s chief sports writer and has “inside sources” for this biography.

Ferrari said that the 599 GTB follows in a long line of classics such as the 250 GT, the 275 GTB, and the 365 GTB4. The 575M Marannello will move out of the way, and the 599 GTB will take its place in Ferrari's model lineup. Classic Driver magazine said that "the Pininfarina design is a meld of 612, Enzo and F430 and gives the Ferrari 599 GTB aggressive yet elegant lines."

A replacement for the 360 Modena Spider convertible will appear approximately 1.5 years after the new coupe, but Ferrari will not offer a second generation of its 360 Challenge Stradale, a street-legal race car. Ferrari will replace the coupe that bridges the 360 and 612, the mid-level 575M Maranello, in 2007 or 2008. The overhauled car is under development (temporarily named "F141") and will use an adaptation of the Enzo Ferrari supercar's V-12. Look for the 575M replacement at an auto show in 2007. The company will wait five or six years before building another Enzo-like supercar.

The 599 GTB is a mid-front engined two-seater coupé with a massive 5,999cc V12 engine borrowed from the Enzo Ferrari supercar. This beast produces 620hp at 7,600 rpm. More shocking of all is the power-weight ratio, an astounding 2.6 kg per horsepower. Torque figures are unavailable at present. The Ferrari 599 GTB features an all-aluminium chassis and body.
