The readers of
the German car magazine Auto Motor und Sport - the
most renowned magazine in Germany, which has eleven
international editions and seven collaboration agreements
with as many magazines - such as Autocar (UK) and
Quattroruote (Italy) - confirmed the success of two vehicles
from Ferrari in their traditional Best Cars survey,
where the readers vote for their preferred cars in twenty
different categories. This year the awards were given out
for the 31st time.
More than 100,000 readers voted and in the end it was the
Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano, which, with 11.2% of the votes in
its category "Imported Sports Cars", won this award. The 12
cylinder from Maranello is the best performing Granturismo
car that has ever been built by the manufacturer with the
Prancing Horse - an synthesis of technological innovation
and refined design in a Coupé with a middle-front engine,
which has been presented at the Car Show in Paris last year.
The 599 GTB Fiorano follows the Ferrari F430, winner of this
category in the year 2005.
Thus the 599 GTB Fiorano continues to collect national and
international awards after the two from important British
magazines: Evo ("2006 Evo Car of the Year") and
Top Gear ("2006 Top Gear Supercar of the Year").

enjoy driving an open car with the temperament of a sports
car from Maranello. Before the F430 Spider's success this
category has also been won by the 360 Modena Spider. In the
Chinese edition of Auto, Motor und Sport the F430
Berlinetta won in the category for "Sports Cars" for the
second year in a row. Ferrari S.p.A. General Director Amedeo
Felisa was present at the ceremony in Stuttgart to accept
