Dream car of the month, June 2010Ferrari 599 GTO Well i decided that every month i will select a dream car, generally according to press and public reactions and opinion. Well the Dream Car for June 2010 is the Ferrari 599 GTO.
The GTO name means a lot for Ferrari and the autotive world. There were only 2 models: the 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO an the 1983 Ferrari 288 GTO, they are both considered as one of the best Ferrari cars. Specially the 250 GTO which is considered by many the most beautiful car in the world (Only 31 were made), but anyways the GTO stands for Gran Turismo Omologata which in a way means that they are racing cars, but wait a second the 599 GTO isnt going to be used in races, so that leads as to the question, is this a proper GTO name carrier? Mmmm... Difficult question! I mean it does look amazing, but it really reminds us of the 599XX and the 599 it could be more special. Only 599 units will be made, and dont be fooled Ferrari wont give a GTO to everyone who asks for one. I forgot to mention that it did the Fiorano track in 1.24s which is more than the Enzo and the scuderia making it the faster road car Ferrari has ever made. You will have to be a loyal customer or pass through an intervue, but dont even bother they are all sold by now...

>670HP at 8.250rpm
