The $150k Supercar Everyone Forgot About: Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano --ISSIMI Drives

Come along as Lorenzo puts the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano F1 through its paces. Is it the steal of a century at only $150k or is it a complete dud compared to the GTs of today? When the 599 GTB was unveiled to the public at the 2006 Geneva Motor Show, it was the first all-new Ferrari grand touring car in over 10 years and marked a significant shift in design for the brand. Penned by American designer Jason Castriota, the 599 GTB was shaped heavily with aerodynamics in mind, shirking many of the throwback design cues from the previous 550 Maranello and 575M. Featuring unique flying buttresses “sail panels'' that were on the side of the rear windows, creating downforce while negating the need for a rear wing on the car. Under the hood of the 599 GTB sits a variant of the F140 V12, originally designed for the Enzo hypercar, the F140 produces in excess of 100 horsepower/liter and makes an outstanding noise- with a bassy growl at idle those crescendos into a high pitch shriek as you approach the 8,400 rpm redline.
