When the 599 GTO was launched back in 2010, it seemed like Ferrari had set itself an almost impossibly high bar for any successor. After all, the car’s V-12 was tuned to deliver 661 horsepower, and its six-speed automated manual gearbox was one of the fastest in the business, helping the 599 GTO accelerate to 62 mph from rest in just 3.35 seconds. How much could Ferrari really improve the front-engine, rear-drive formula? It turns out the answer was a lot. Here's a video from DragTimesInfo showing the 599 GTO line up at the drag strip next to its successor, the F12 Berlinetta, and when...

Driving an exotic supercar like the Ferrari 599 GTO on public streets can often be difficult, thanks mostly to low ride heights, poor visibility and a throttle pedal that feels like you’re about to launch a scud missile with just inches of movement of your right foot.
