Rumours started near the end of 2009. Ferrari was going to release a 599 GTO; a car combining the 599 GTB Fiorano and the Ferrari GTO from back in time. Anyway, the rumours are getting bigger and bigger and finally we have came up with more information. Breaking news today explains us that the 599 GTO will be based on Ferrari's previously revealed 599XX, a 599 GTB Fiorano race car. This exiting news was leaked by Ferrari CEO Amedeo Felisa when he explained the following to EVO Magazine. He said that the car could pretty well be produced 50 times in the UK priced at £300,000. Otherwise, the whole world will receive 500 copies of the car, being priced at $480,077. The racer could very well deliver 700hp produced by it's V12 engine and 100 km/h will be reached in only 3.2 seconds. The top speed for it is 349 km/h (217 mph). The Ferrari will be revealed next March at the 2010 Geneva Auto Show when more specs will be released. Stay tuned until then!
