On the surface, the new £ 1.2 m 599XX Ferrari one of the largest four-wheel-nonsense all the time.
After all, a car that will never be controlled, it can never be driven on the road, and will be manufactured in small quantities, which will almost certainly never see one in the flesh, Ferrari 29 songs over the next two years.
Consider a living, breathing test site for many technologies in development at Ferrari, the research and development, which is a refreshing, and not behind closed doors but in public, for everyone to see and admire.
It's fast, although this car one lap of his beloved Ferrari's Fiorano test track to complete a full 10 seconds faster than the Enzo.
How does it feel?

Before I tell you what it is, let us first know what has been achieved.
Perhaps the hard points are the V12 engine, which was super-polished interior and equipped with brand new titanium exhaust on the outside to increase efficiency - and power - from 611bhp to 720bhp at 9,000 rpm mighty / min .. Torque has also increased from £ 505 m to 6,500 rpm, and when the handle is just absolutely not. Neither ratio (which is shorter and narrower), or sort.
Given the weight of 270 kg was renovated in 1430 kg without fuel poverty, it is not surprising to discover that the success of the scandal. Think 0-60 mph in less than 2.9sec, and top speed is limited to 196 kmh gearing.
What defines 599XX as something completely separate from and above all the regular Ferrari engine, however, or a wild performance.
Instead, package of electronic gadgets, and his 22: th century aero package, both in blissful harmony to work with the car as fast on the ground.
In the case a few fans, but suck the air away from the rear diffuser, but not required, a small-style rear fender. The hind wings are hip, that the air duct to the wing, creating as much pressure as possible without additional subscription. Even taillight sockets contain a small stream of air pumps that send impulses into the air as it flows away from the tail, again to reduce drag, but somehow increases the pressure.
And then there are the utilities, the new Twin Mannetino switches, one of nine different settings, traction control, the other with three different settings, magnetic induction, which are both designed to 599XX driver safety cocoon, but to give them the opportunity to driving their cars as often as possible.
Yes, the electronics in this car, specially designed as performance parts, no safety equipment. Dismantling and you can not wing circle as quickly as possible with them, even if your name is Fernando Alonso. You can just be able to adapt the system for a few corners, if you accidentally a perfect sequence of the brakes, turn-in, the balance of power, gas production.
But all round, the electronics will not win every time. This is not the case with one of the companies that are faster cars with TC and the stability of the system is off.
I drove a car at the Vallelunga circuit near Rome, and it was almost long enough, you can drive all day, all week, and want more. But it was enough time behind the wheel to realize that your audience, 599XX a very clear purpose in life. Not only as a development platform for future technologies, some of which appear on the new GTO rumored 599 version later this year, but also as a means to a unique combination of excitement and momentum for front-engine GT car. For almost every car you have time to think about.
So how can that thing in the corner to throw, and then let you through the electronics, without ever feeling intrusive or annoying, it's really great. When you go to the middle of the corner you after they are used to the way the system works the valve open 100 percent and just waiting for it to decide when enough traction to actually deliver volgas it.
I really get used to the way we work and the major determining the volume of aid and make good use, none of the terror usually associated with throwing a 722bhp car on the side, just a lot of excitement. Much power to go with him.
Should I buy?
599XX is a very special project cars from Ferrari and completed at least one of these cars is likely to be very rich. They will also be invited to participate in the project and three free trial of the year when they are asked to provide feedback about the car.
This is a very rich man toys, 599XX, but it's a toy. They are the most important thing about it though is that as many as one quarter of the tech in it will find its way into future production of the Ferrari, we are in an absolute treat. And that something would happen sooner than you think.
