Ferrari held an exclusive 599 GTO world premiere for Ferrari clients, last week. The 12-cylinder Berlinetta, limited edition to only 599, was presented at a symbolic place of the city of Modena: the Military Academy’s Ducal Palace.
After a short introduction three 599 GTOs arrived through the Ducal Palace’s entry gate, accompanied by impressive light beams in red, illuminating the Academy’s courtyard. The cars were driven by Luca Badoer, Giancarlo Fisichella and long-time test driver Dario Benuzzi, with three cadets as co-drivers, underlining the strong relationship with the Academy.
The three Berlinettas were then admired by the 500 guests. They were told that all are already sold.
The 599 GTO’s next official appearance will be in Beijing, at the International Automotive Exhibition.
