This two-door Italian Gran Turismo is bound to satisfy your childhood dreams for the ultimate sports car. The Ferrari 599 is sleek, sexy and powerful and ensures pleasurable long distance drives when you're coasting along the French Riviera with the wind in your hair.
As you'd expect, the Ferrari 599 is a truly incredible car. However it goes above and beyond just run of the mill excellence- it's really spectacular on an almost biblical scale. Epic performance and breath takingly beautiful designs are coupled with an awesome driving experience. This isn't an auto for the faint hearted. it's a powerhouse that wouldn't look out of place in an art gallery.
Officially known as the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano, it's marketed as a GT car, but has all the trappings of a high performance super car. Introduced in 2006, the 2 door, 2 seat, rear wheel drive masterpiece is armed with the same 6.0 litre V12 engine found in the Ferrari Enzo, and as such it produces 611 horsepower, has a top speed of over 200 mph and can go from 0 to 60 in 3.7 seconds. Wowza! A few upgraded models were also released, including the 599 HGTE (an improved handling package) and 599 GTO.
A whole thesis could be written about how amazing the Ferrari is to look at; it really is sublime. From the pointy lines on the bonnet to the sharp headlights, the door mounted air vents and the famous prancing horse logo on the front grille, it's all majestic. You'll be looking at Italian style at its best inside the cabin, and comfort levels are off the chart. High quality materials are lavished upon ever surface, and the driving position is great. A shocking lack of kit means optional extras are necessary, especially the F1 paddle shift gearbox. There is a comparatively huge boot though, that's similar to that of a hatchback.
To truly express how good the 599 is to drive, you'd have to scream and shout a whole load of words that couldn't be repeated here. In short it's the definition of awesome. The aluminium body makes it light, and the huge V12 power plant gets it up to warp speed in an instant. A perfectly balanced chassis means it handles like a dream and can be thrown into corners without disastrous results. Easy to control thanks to a wealth of clever gadgets, it is a get in and go kind of car, but rewards real drivers the most.
The only way regular people could get their hands on this car is to win the lottery or dream about it at night. Those with some serious dough however will find buying second hand to be the best option because prices are significantly lower, and waiting lists don't exist. Here at Cazoo, you simply find a used Ferrari 599 that suits, pick up the phone to book a test drive and hopefully end up driving home. Nothing but the best autos are made available, so confidence can be high.
So, the Ferrari 599 is a luxury grand tourer with the characteristics and performance of a fire breathing super car. It looks mesmerising, produces the most incredible sound you're ever likely to hear and can boggle your mind from the sheer acceleration and speed. There's no question it's one of the best cars ever to come out of the Ferrari stable, but more to the point, it's one of the most amazing cars ever produced by any company. You have to buy this if you've got the cash!
