I think for a number of reasons they did well with this car. It’s a true GTO. It’s got all the bits and all the bells and whistles on the lightweight and everything. But it looks like a normal Ferrari 599 to the major extent. Also the interior isn’t stripped back like in an F 40 or anything like that to make it completely impractical. I know these are very very popular in Monaco, because a it’s a beast of a car, it’s an exclusive thing and that’s what Monaco is all about but mainly it’s comfortable. And usable. And can get you about Europe in no time at all in great luxurious comfort. Also with all the dynamic software and control systems etc regular man can drive this at high speed, as long as he behaves himself a little bit, and it’s not going to kill him like an F 40 would or a 288 GTO
Nice touch at the end Ian....I wonder who the owner might be...ha ha. What a machine but sadly wasted on the road, she needs to be set free on a track. Thanks for the great vid as always 👍
Classic ferrari - sales petering out? lean on the suppliers to reduce weight of key parts - do a tiny piece of work to the engine and gearbox, bolt it all together and claim a major weight and power breakthrough. Double the price
Now I know why I see the Ferrari's I do near my local stomping ground 😁 Nice review of probably my favourite V12 engined cars.
I know now what will be top of my shopping list when my numbers come up! Another great video, Ian.

10:18 The icon for the final setting on the Manitino (Please feel free to correct my spelling) should just be a skull and crossbones
