Thread: 599 Successor spotted

Now that Ferrari has launched the FF as the official replacement of the 612 Scaglietti, it's time for the Italian automaker to wrap up development of the successor to the 599. While we previously spotted this car's replacement undergoing development in a California shell, what you see here are the first photos that actually give a glimpse of the new car's shape, camouflaged as it may be.

The 599 successor - rumored to be dubbed F620 - will likely be powered by Ferrari's 6.3-liter V12, churning out over 700 horsepower. Unlike the all-wheel-drive FF, the 599 replacement will continue to use rear-wheel drive, sending its power to the back wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission with an F1-style electronic differential.

Our sources suggest that the F620 will be much lighter than the outgoing 599, due in part to a larger usage of aluminum in the body construction. As for design, it's safe to assume that the coupe will take a large influence from the 458 Italia, with some cues from the FF thrown in for good measure. Then again, it's a Ferrari, so we doubt the finished product will be anything but stunning.

Expect to see more of the F620 as it continues its development testing over the next few months. If things move along at a steady pace, we could see the production car debut as early as the Geneva Motor Show in March.

I can not wait until this thing comes out. sounds like it will be a monsterrrrrrrrr

Like what I see so far

I love that body cammo, looks like it's wearing an old school down filled ski parka .

I love...Rear engine, so bring us back a Testarossa!

Cant wait to see the un-veiling of it.

Clean wrapped

I can't wait to see what else they have to do!

Is it just me or does the name F620 suck?I mean i know this name isn't in stone but i hope thats not it. I mean the 575, 599...those names kind of flow. Id much rather see them call it the 686 or 659. Im sure the name has some sort of meaning behind it most people will never know but IMO 620 sucks i hope it turns out to be something different than that.

That being said, I'm super stoked to see this car unveiled. The 599 was an absolute BEAST when it first came out (still is) but it shocked everyone with how fast it was in every way (enzo type speeds in a DD car) so I'm expecting a lot to be honest. Sub 3 second 60 time, 700+ hp(maybe more like 750+ the way things are going these days), a revolutionary transmission, not to mention the given that it will handle like a true champion. I also hope they come up with a new interior scheme ( a la Aventador) that changes things up a bit. Not that i don't like ferrari interiors, they are beautiful, but other than screens not much has changed since the days of the 360 and the 575.

God I'm pumped i hope we see it soon. And down the line a superamerica/SA Aperta convertible ahh god that'll be awesome

And wtf where is our enzo successor? Now thats what i wanna see.

Ferrari sucks at Vinyl Wraps LOL
