Ferrari 599gt Fiorano 2010
Ferrari have dominated the automobile world for years. Their cars are top-class sports cars and supercars that set the standard for all to follow. Their pedigree is second to none, and their achievements in the racing world are also legendary. The Ferrari name is synonymous with style, power and performance at the very highest of levels, so it comes as no surprise that they have once again risen the bar in 2010.The upcoming Ferrari 599GTB Fiorano, what a mouthful, looks like it is going to create quite a stir in the motor world. Ferrari have been producing top quality cars for a very long time and so it is a safe bet to assume this will be no different. The Fiorano looks like it will be competing at the very highest levels and will be up against its usual rivals in Lamborghini and Zonda.The Fiorano looks stunning. The long, smooth hood flows into the rounded at curvy rear seamlessly and everything seems in perfect proportion. The cockpit sits towards the back, augmenting the size and length of the hood giving it that classic sixties race-car look. It does not look as intimidating as the 458 Italia, also debuting in 2010, instead, it looks more refined and of a higher class.The inside of this Ferrari is also enchanting. Keeping things simple with a basic black stitched-leather and silver finish does not take anything away from its beauty. Just as on the outside, everything is perfectly in proportion on the inside and sat just where it should be. The classic Ferrari emblem stands out on the steering wheel to remind you of the pedigree of your vehicle.To save some weight and bolster the speed of the Fiorano, Ferrari have made extensive use of aluminium in their manufacturing of this car to make it lighter and more responsive. Under the hood, Ferrari have put a massive 6 litre, V-12 beast capable of over 610bhp. This car is really going to fly and it will look fantastic as it does.A six-speed manual transmission will come as standard. Optionally, one can go for the six-speed automated manual that will feature lightning quick paddle transmission that will get the Fiorano going nearly as fast and becoming nearly as responsive as a Ferrari F1 car. The model will only be available as a coupe, which is probably a good thing considering all that power.Not that safety will be your top priority when driving this car, it will, however, be reassuring to know that the Fiorano will come equipped with all the standard modern day safety features. This includes ABS; front, side and side curtain airbags along with stability and traction control. Fuel economy is as poor as one would expect, but it will still get you around 15 miles of tarmac-burning fun to the gallon.With prices estimated to start at around 190,000 pounds, this car is clearly not available to everyone. However, for those that can afford it, an automobile treat is awaiting you.The Fiorano is the epitome of beauty and the beast. A stunningly attractive car on the outside coupled with a luxurious interior, this car stores a snarling beast under its hood, capable of blowing any competition off the roads. This car is perfectly designed and perfectly engineered and manufactured. Another moment of brilliance from the supercar class-leaders of the car world. Well done Ferrari.
