I am bias as I absolutely love my 599, I have track time in the 812 and it is a magnificent car but it feels a little heavy compared to the 599, the extra 170 hp of the 812 did not hurt though. To me the 599 connects the older less refined Ferrari’s with the new super car world very very well, I would not hesitate to buy the 599. OBTW, don’t bash the Corvette, every car has a purpose, my wife likes to drive the Corvette (manual) more than the Ferrari, one of the few things we do not see eye to eye on.
