10 Aug 09 It’s a Bird! It’s a Plane! It’s the Ferrari 599!
As if the Ferrari 599 was not enough of a dream car all by itself, right? The big news right now is the almost defiant speed of the car with the HGTE Package. Then the little go mobile is known to go around the Fiorano circuit in — get this — one minute and twenty six and a half seconds. That is right. That’s 1m26.4s.
The Ferrari 599 by itself received a bit of criticism. Reviewers complained that it leaned a little too much when taking curves and corners on the speed limit, causing it to register at a slower time. Now, the engineers of the Ferrari do not like to hear such complains — but they do not cry about it, oh no. They fix the problem.
And boy howdy, have they ever fixed it this time, with the addition of the Handling Grand Turismo Package, a must have if you really want your purring baby to fly.

It is impressive that Ferrari can take a vehicle like the 599 and make it even better.
I look forward to seeing what the aftermarket comes up with for this car to one up Ferrari on a handling package.
