The NEC Classic Motor Show Sale 11th - 13th November 2022

92 The NEC Classic Motor Show Sale - Cars The Ferrari 599 took over from its predecessor, the 575, in the summer of 2006 and brought the front-engined V12 Grand Tourer into the modern age. Whereas the 550 and 575, even at their introduction, always felt like modern classics, the 599 was every inch a new-age Ferrari. The all-aluminium chassis, F1 SuperFast gearbox, F1-Trac stability and traction control, magnetic semi-active dampers and carbon-ceramic brakes all wrapped in aggressive, aero-optimised bodywork with minimal overhangs and maximum presence. Top billing, though, went to the engine - a lightly modified version of the Enzo’s 6-litre V12 with a mighty 611bhp at 7600rpm, endowing Ferrari’s new series-production flagship with truly sensational performance with 0-62 in 3.7 seconds and a top speed of 205mph. The Handling Turismo Evoluzione (HGTE) package was designed to deliver a more dynamic driving experience. The technical modifications included a modified set up with stiffer springs and rear anti-roll bar as well as new calibration settings for the magnetorheological shock absorbers and most notably yellow brake callipers. A letter from Ferrari, dated July 2016, within the car’s history file, confirms that this 599 GTB (ZFFFD60C000164311) was built in right- hand drive at Maranello during September 2008 prior to being shipped to Hong She Motors Pte. in Singapore where it was registered SKX 1223K on 10th March 2009.
