Did You Know…
Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano is the full official name of the car, with “Fiorano” added to signify its close connection to Ferrari’s famous test track where it was extensively developed and honed.
Why the 599 GTB Fiorano is a Smart Investment
- Last Naturally Aspirated V12 Before Hybridisation – The 599 GTB houses Ferrari’s legendary 6.0-litre naturally aspirated V12, producing 612 bhp, making it the most powerful front-engined Ferrari at its launch. With Ferrari moving towards turbocharged and hybrid powertrains, naturally aspirated V12 Ferraris are becoming increasingly rare and desirable.
- Limited Production & Rising Value – The 599 GTB was produced in relatively limited numbers compared to modern Ferrari V12s, and well-maintained examples (especially those in Rosso Corsa) are seeing a steady appreciation.
- First Ferrari with F1-Trac – This was Ferrari’s first-ever road car to feature F1-Trac, an advanced traction control system derived from Formula 1, giving it unmatched grip and stability for a front-engined supercar of its time.
- Bespoke Spec – Carbon Galore & Challenge Wheels – The Carbon Fibre LED Steering Wheel, Carbon Fibre Bucket Seats, and Carbon Fibre Dashboard are rare and highly sought-after options. Challenge Wheels give the car a track-ready aesthetic while maintaining road-going usability.
- The Ultimate GT Experience – Unlike hardcore Ferraris, the 599 GTB blends extreme performance with long-distance comfort. The Bose Sound System, full Owner’s and Service Books, and included trickle charger make this car not just a collector’s item but also a Ferrari you can truly drive and enjoy.
Key Features
- F1-Derived Engine – The Enzo Ferrari’s 6.0-litre V12 sits under the bonnet, offering a symphony of high-revving aggression. This is as close as you’ll get to a road-going Ferrari Enzo without the multi-million-pound price tag.
- Carbon Ceramic Brakes – A technology first seen in Ferrari’s Formula 1 cars, providing unbelievable stopping power and longevity, making them perfect for high-performance driving.
- Scuderia Fender Shields – A hallmark of Ferrari’s motorsport pedigree, the shields represent the marque’s rich racing history and add prestige to the car’s presence.
- Challenge Wheels with Rosso Calipers – A striking combination that enhances both aesthetics and performance, as Challenge Wheels were originally developed for Ferrari’s one-make racing series.
- Unlimited Mileage Warranty Available – A rarity in the world of exotic cars, this warranty makes ownership worry-free, whether the buyer is looking to enjoy the 599 GTB on open roads or keep it as a collector’s piece.
Final Thought:
Why This 599 GTB Fiorano is Special
A Rosso Corsa Ferrari with a Tan Leather Interior is a timeless, investment-grade specification, and the inclusion of original owner’s books, service books, spare wheel, tool kit, and trickle charger make it a turn-key collector’s car. And this car has only covered 9,101 km, making it an exceptionally well-preserved example with incredibly low mileage.
With naturally aspirated V12 Ferraris becoming extinct, the 599 GTB Fiorano is one of the last true driver’s cars, combining old-school Ferrari soul with modern performance.
