Ferrari 599 GTO (2011)

This example was ordered new through Rosso Scuderia Ferrari of Tokyo in February 2011, suitably optioned in Rosso Scuderia, the chosen colour of Ferrari’s Formula 1 team for the Schumacher era and a hue that made its production debut on the F430 in 2004. The roof is finished in Grigio Silverstone Opaco as many GTOs were.

When the 599 XX was upgraded to Evo specification at the tail end of 2011, the remaining parts were offered to select clientele and members of Ferrari’s exclusive Corse Clienti program only as an upgrade for the 599 GTO through Ferrari Genuine, their post-build parts catalogue. The complete aerodynamic package at the time was more than 10% of the list price of a GTO. The complete kit was manufactured for Ferrari by (one of their seven) suppliers for F50 and Enzo composites. The full package comprised of three new elements, each made exclusively from exposed carbon fibre and forming two options for track use. The first, an extended front splitter securely mounted below the front bumper was paired with revised C-pillar winglets and designed for use on fast circuits with top speeds exceeding 220km/h. The second, for use on tighter circuits where top speed was below 220km/h, significantly increases rear downforce with the addition of a full width extended rear boot lid to the preceding options.

It’s first owner, a collector based in Tokyo, jumped at the opportunity to have the full package fitted to the car. Whilst this GTO is accompanied by its original panels, it was delivered to its first keeper in 2012 with the complete package already fitted prior to delivery. It is important to note that fewer than 25 examples of this package are understood to be fitted to 599 GTOs.

Aside from the XX package, this example was optioned from new with a wealth of carbon fibre options; including centre caps, engine covers and headlight buckets. Furthermore, the fuel cap has been autographed by none other than Luca Cordera di Montezemolo, Ferrari’s chairman at the time.

Inside the car receives Extra-Campionario Rosso Alcantara with Rosso Tessuto inserts, the stitching is also completed in the special colour of Grigio Chiaro.

The car has been kept as part of a collection from new. It was imported to the UK in 2016 and has since been further kept as part of a collection. To date, this example has covered just 280 kilometres from new which has been corroborated by a gearbox control unit readout at DK Engineering.
