Talk:Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano

Main image

the the current picture is that of a F430 not a 599. -anonymous The picture is awful. A side view would be better. Anybody want to take a picture of their Ferrari? ;-) — Mütze 20:48, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Agreed. It looks hideous. RobertM525 21:30, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Can we get one of the front or the side? Or even an angle one? The current one doesn't show much. X360 08:51, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

The new picture looks quite good. :) RobertM525 19:26, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

Damnit, it got deleted. Why was it deleted? It was a free-use image. Do people just go around deleting images or something? X360 11:06, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

I got a good picture, go to Car Wiki, check the 599 pic out and just take it if you want! "androo123"

2007?!

This car is around for a year. The production should be started sometime in 2006 not in 2007. Deliogul 16:11, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

Designer?

The article states that the designer is Frank Stephenson, but the side pane lists Jason Castriota. This seems to be contradicting. 74.14.52.28 03:53, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

Stephenson was Castriota's boss at Pininfarina. Castriota is widely given credit for the car. Sodfijd 00:10, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Basic Info?

How much will this car sell for? How many will be produced per year? Matthew Massey 20:31, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

INFO:::

This car costs $205,009

I second this - basic information for a Ferrari is MSRP. Way too much for performance that is half a 20k electric! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.86.224.237 (talk) 05:47, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

SUPERCAR!

the 599 GTB technically meets all supercar criteria. 66.32.197.19 22:39, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

Is it not a GT car? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.68.108.36 (talk) 18:09, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

drivetrain layout is wrong

The 599 has a FMR drivetrain layout, not FR Sodfijd 15:05, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

• I don't see why we should rename this page, just because the "limited editions" don't use that particular suffix. Feinoha ^{Talk, My master} 03:25, 10 June 2010 (UTC)

I can do that if that destined title wasn't bluelinked, trouble is I can't since I am not an admin. Donnie Park (talk) 13:56, 28 June 2010 (UTC)

Recent Ferrari crash in Singapore

Is there any merit to documenting the recent crash involving a 599 GTO and a taxi cab in Singapore? The link to the video is here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyyTbLc6JbU — Preceding unsigned comment added by 119.75.194.201 (talk) 18:07, 21 May 2012 (UTC)

No! It's a You tube clip of yet another badly driven car. Why would it merit an entry in the article?! Warren (talk) 22:47, 21 May 2012 (UTC)

Production numbers?

Does anyone have a reliable source for the total number of 599 GTB built? Sstaiger (talk) 00:34, 9 September 2016 (UTC)

Rename?

I think this article should be renamed to "Ferrari 599", as there are numerous different models, such as 599 GTO. 139.192.61.93 (talk) 11:12, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
