Ferrari 599 GTB is approaching the end of its glorious history as the new front mounted V12 car of the Italian manufacturer that will replace it is expected to surface next March at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show. However, rumor has it that the 599 GTB could go out with a bang as a special Fernando Alonso limited edition could be produced as a final tribute to this successful model.

The model is expected to be lighter and quicker than all others production cars from the Maranello-based automaker, including the 1495 kg GTO. It is reported that the Fernando Alonso edition will consist of 40 units only and should become available this coming January. We would like to stress out that at this moment there is no official confirmation about this project, but it would surely be a nice way to say ‘goodbye’ to such an exciting car.
