RUMOR ON FERRARI ...


You find the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano HgTe not powerful enough? and the 599 fxx too extreme? Ferrari will rejoice to revive a myth which is expressed in three letters ... After the GTO 250 GTO 288 GTO 1962 and 1984 there 'will the 599 GTO!
The program reduced weight and increased power between 680 and 700 horses! it's weird like that on the side of San Angata was announced the same power for the future Urus, in any case I welcome the revival of this name, synonymous with high performance at Ferrari.

But we also learn that the F70 will replace, perhaps under another name, the Ferrari Enzo, should come in 2012.

Tradition requires from the F40, ten years have passed since the Enzo has been presented at the Paris Motor Show 2002. To replace it with dignity, the Prancing Horse would prepare, according to an English site Auto Express a more radical, even faster than the Enzo, which already reached 350 km / h. To do this, return to the source (288 GTO, F40) 2 turbo and direct injection V8 that approaching the 700 horses. This should enable the F70 to achieve a maximum speed of 370 km / h and devour the 0-100 km / h in less than 3 seconds. While remaining "reasonable" level of performance on the consumption and CO2 emissions. Especially as an option, an electric motor could be installed.
