GTO is the signature to have in the Ferrari world. First presented at the Beijing Motor Show in 2010, the 599 GTO was intended as a tribute to its predecessors the 250 and 288. An evolution of the 599XX track car, it had the same, if slightly tempered, ultra-sporty personality. It was powered by a magnificent V12 6-litre engine at 65°, producing a whopping 670 bhp. Coupled to the F1 SuperFast sequential-shift gearbox, it was capable of an extraordinary performance: the GTO went from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.35 seconds and had a top speed of over 335 km/h. The 20-inch wheels and carbon features, including a huge air extractor, spoke volumes about the car's temperament as did the interior, with its fabric and Alcantara bucket seats and an abundance of carbon fibre. The Manettino, positioned on the steering wheel, had five settings allowing the driver to adjust the car's behaviour. The gearshift paddles offered incredible precision and optimized downshift. The carbon-ceramic discs provided an effective and durable braking system. The tour de force for Ferrari, in creating this GTO, was to build such an incredibly powerful car that was so easy to drive.
Chassis no. 173816 was ordered by our collector through Cavallari Motors, the Ferrari dealer in Monaco; it entered production on 22 April 2010 and was completed on 21 May 2010. With the pleasure afforded by its impressive engine, he considered the GTO to be a supercar in its own right. He chose a combination of colours which mixed the traditional 'Rosso Corsa' (DS 322) with 'Grigio Silverstone Opaco' for the roof. A meticulous examination of the body indicated that it had never been repainted. The interior meanwhile is trimmed in black Alcantara, set off by burgundy stitching, and fabric in the same mix of colours. Delivered in Monaco on 5 June 2010, the 599 GTO had covered 3285 km at the time of its first service in Monaco on 10 September 2015, and is showing a total of 3390 km today. It comes with all its manuals including the stamped-up service book, its Ferrari battery charge maintainer and car cover. Among the 599 examples built of the GTO, this is certainly one of the models with the lowest recorded mileage and the clearest history to be found, the best of the best among cars for the collector.
