Ferrari 512 GTB Manual 6-Speed Second owner, full history, ver 2008
General description :
When the Ferrari 599 Fiorano was introduced it was Ferrari’s absolute top model. According to the well respected automotive journalist Andrew Frankel the 599 was the best thing to come out of Maranello since the F40, surely no greater compliment imaginable! Nico Aaldering has owned the car since 2013. This is a real rare opportunity to get your hands on a manual 599 GTB! Ferrari only built 30 manual versions of the 599 GTB, of which 20 found their way to the States, leaving only 10 over for the rest of the world. This Ferrari 599 GTB has a Tour du France Blu finish with a Carta di Zucchero blu interior. This 599 was supplied from new in 2008 in Germany. The car has been in the Netherlands since 2013. Over last twelve years the 599 has run up a paltry 60,020 km. The car itself is in absolute top condition. Inside and out the car is pristine. As soon as you step into the car you become aware that you are in a very special vehicle. Every inch is covered with the best Italian leather. The extremely popular Daytona style seats immediately make their presence known. Over and above the fact that they sit fantastically and look the part, they are also fully electrically adjustable and heated. The first owner accessorised this Ferrari 599 GTB in the upmost tasteful fashion. For instance he had the dashboard covered in Carta di Zucchero blu and Blu Scuro leather as well as having the steering wheel, headliner and central tunnel covered in blue leather, the navy blue carpets complete the picture. The icing on the cake is the rev-counter in contrasting yellow. Other options include the Brembo carbon-ceramic brakes, a 6 cd-exchanger, navigation, self dimming rearview mirror, parking sensors front and rear, highly polished 20 inch “Monolithic” rims, Bose sound system and space saver spare wheel. Driving this Ferrari is a revelation time upon time, be it the characteristic click on gear change or the wonderful sound of that 6.0 litre V12 engine, which is practically the same engine used in the Ferrari Enzo V12. The V12 delivers 608 Nm at 5,600 revs and 620 Hp at 7,600 revs. The rev-limiter kicks in at 8,400 revs. The 599 GTB takes 3.2 seconds from 0 to 100km/hr (60 miles/hr) with a top speed of over 330 km/hr (206 miles/hr). This Ferrari 599 GTB is absolutely undamaged. The fine bodywork has good and correctly aligned body panels. The complete service and maintenance history is known. In short this is a unique Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano in unique livery with the very rare manual transmission. We have found the proverbial needle in a haystack!

About Ferrari
The first Ferrari road car was the 125 S introduced in 1947 and powered by a 1.5 L V12 engine, right? Well it's not quite that simple, Ferrari did in fact produce e Tipo 815, in 1940. Tipo 815 was designed by ex-Alfa Romeo engineers Alberto Massimino and Vittorio Bellentani and by Enrico Nardi under Enzo's company but legal issues with the former associate Alfa Romeo prevented Ferrari from launching the Ferrari marque at that point.
Enzo did produce a series of fine road cars in the 50's and 60's but they were merely to finance his true passion racing, wheather GT/Sports car or Grand Prix. The 50's saw the birth of Ferrari's most memorable cars, 250 GTB (tour de France) 250 Testa Rossa, 250 GT swb just to name a few.
Under the surface tension was growing though. In November 1961 long-time sales manager Girolamo Gardini made an ultimatum to Enzo: if tensions continued, he would leave the company. As a result, Gardini was ousted, as well as Scuderia Ferrari manager Romolo Tavoni, chief engineer Carlo Chiti, experimental sports car development chief Giotto Bizzarrini, and a number of others who stood by them.
Without Chiti and Bizzarrini the development of what was to become the most quintessential Ferrari and today the world's most expensive car, 250 GTO, was at a pivoting point. 250 GTO project was saved by a young engineer Mauro Forghieri and long-time racing bodyman Sergio Scaglietti who stepped in and took over the program with known results.
In addition to 250 GTO, Ferrari launced such master pieces as 250 LM, 250P, 275 GTB, 365 GTB/4 "Daytona" during the the 60's
By the late 60's Ferrari's prototypes' success came to a sudden halt by a new competitor, GT40. Ford turned to Lola to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after Enzo had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that gave Ferrari some heavy hits in Le Mans 24 to come.
By the end of the 60's FIAT purchased 50% of the company, starting a development that has led to a new mass-produced era of Ferraris.
