Ferrari 599 GTB in Detroit
posted: Sunday 08 January 2006 by Luca in: Ferrari Coupe
Update: high-res pics and press kit here
It seems that the photos of the new Ferrari coupè that have been circulating in the last couple of days really were official. What was wrong was the name. According to the Italian newspaper Il Sole 24 Ore, the new coupè will shown tomorrow in Detroit and it will be called Ferrari 599 GTB.
The fact that this news come from Il Sole 24 Ore lends it more credence, since it is the daily newspaper of the major Italian employers’ association, and Luca Cordero di Montezemolo is both Ferrari’s and Confindustria’s president …
The design of this new coupè is by Pininfarina, and it seems that names such as F600, “Imola” or “Testarossa” have been passed over in favor of 599 GTB (Gran Turismo Berlinetta).
