Evo Magazine review the Ferrari 599 GTO
Well known motoring journalist Chris Harris has just driven the new Ferrari 599 GTO on some of the wonderful roads in the Emilia Romagna region of Italy.
Look at the video below to see his drive and hear the fantastic exhaust note. Chris notes that far from being the harsh, stripped out track car he thought it might be, it is very comfortable on the road whilst still being devastatingly fast!
