599XX wings for the GTO

There is at least one car with them in Luxembourg. Not sure if it was done at the factory or at the dealer.

There was one other car (don't remember, asian?) in the 599 section with those wings.

 

I think you mean this car:

Ces,

You can get them as part of the Track Use Aerokit for the 599 GTO. This kit exists in 2 configurations:

Configuration 1: For fast tracks (top speed > 220 km/h).
Configuration 2: For slow tracks (Op speed not exceeding 220 km/h)

Config 1 includes:

a) GTO redisgned front spoiler P/N 070002370
b) GTO pillar kit (XX wings): P/N 070002373

Can be used on high speed tracks also.

Config 2 includes:

All of Config 1 + GTO aerokit rear lid with integrated spoiler: P/N 070002371

Note: Using this configuration on high speed tracks will cause reduced stability, understeer and slower speeds in straights.

Additional note: None of the kits are homologated for use on the street (track only).

Price for Config 2 (no installed and non painted was € 10k excl VAT).

Looking at all the pro's (but a lot of cons) and how it looks, I've decided to stay away from it.

Cheers,

M

 

Not a big fan in a GTO...

 

Saw this 599 with the XX wings, looks good!

Technically it's a GTB with several mods, I've just sent him the video so he can see how does it fits on a 599, esthetically the car in the video is not so far from a GTO.

 

M was good enough to give me a heads up on these packages last Dec. and I seriously considered having it done to my GTO even though the kits are not even offered in the USA.........Europe Only...... I was going to have the parts shipped and then installed by my dealer. In the end, I also gave it a pass. after all, you don't mess with perfection>)!

Besides...... While adding an aero package may be a relatively simple procedure. Dealing with unknown variables while tracking a GTO at high speeds can be a receipe for disaster.

 

Any pics of the redesigned spoiler?

 

Very interesting information, never knew about this kit. Down here I am quite sure it could be used on the road, depending how low the front spoiler is. But as Speedracer mentions, trying new variables in a GTO at high speeds on the track is probably not the best of ideas.

 

I love the Areo Kit! I can only imagine how much this costs!

 

Ooh I like that...!

 

They look like sad puppy dog ears

Maybe if they had color changing LEDs inside they'd b cooler

Any pics?

 

Just the wings are 10k? I cant imagine how much they want for the rear lid..

 

I don't think so:

That implies front bumper, wings and rear wing for 10K...Almost cheap for ferrari's prices!

 

10k for the rear lid, front lip and winglettes for 10k? That is 'cheap'...

 

I still like the LED one better

 

Totally agree with you and that's why I decided to pass on it. After all, I have my 458 Challenge if I want to push for lap times Yes, I'm very much aware that the 458C laps at about the same pace as the 599 XX does. At Spa my lap times are about the same as the 599 XX. Haven't compared with the 599 XX evo times yet.

Agree 100%.

€ 9,030.25 excluding VAT to be exact and that is for P/N 70002525 (front spoiler and XX winglets). Mind you: Non installed and non painted. I didn't get any pricing on the rear lid.

 

Andrew, I called my dealer this morning, I am hoping the US prices are close to $10,000, if so, I have to have them, but I suspect it will be closer to $15,000.

He did not have anything on the Areo kit so he is calling Ferrari...

I will let you know!
