The recently-launched Handling GTE option for the Ferrari
599 GTB Fiorano sports car is now also available as a Ferrari Genuine
Accessories package for dealer fitment, with two options
available according to the customer’s specific requirements
and age of vehicle.
The options are available for pre-2008 599 GTB Fioranos covering
the areas of handling, exhausts
and aesthetic kits and start from £17,213 plus VAT (in the UK) and for
post-2008 cars covering all the above categories plus
performance improvements, and start from £19,703 plus VAT.
The final
price of the kits will depend on specific kits required and
also model year
of car.
The new handling
kit includes lowered suspension (10mm); new magnetorheologically controlled suspension calibration for
the steering wheel Manettino SPORT and RACE configurations; more rigid
suspension springs (front + 17 percent, rear + 15 percent); more rigid
rear anti-roll bars (diameter increased to 25mm); HGTE
specific tyres with improved compound (8 percent more grip) and
3-piece modular rims with reduced weight (forged spokes) and
special new design.
The performance kit (which is only available for post-2008 cars),
includes new exhausts silencers with two-tone finished
tailpipes; enhanced F1 gearshift actuation, with response
times reduced to 85ms and new accelerator logic with
modified mapping for improved throttle response. The
HGTE performance kit cannot be installed on cars fitted with manual
gearboxes.
New exhausts silencers with two-tone finish tailpipes are
also available. The exhaust kit is designed for vehicles
that cannot receive the software updates listed in the
Performance kit since the engine was produced before 2008,
all cars with manual gearboxes and for clients who are only
interested in modifying the styling and sound of their own
cars. The exhaust kit is included in the Performance kit
available
for cars post-2008.
Aesthetic changes made to the 599 GTB Fiorano with the HGTE
kit include a new design front grille with a special
chromatic treatment and a burnished finish to Prancing Horse
symbols on the front grill and rear boot lid. The interior
trim modifications which are included as part of the
factory-fit HGTE package on a new car are not available as
part of any of the Ferrari Genuine Accessories packages
outlined above while the mesh front grille on the car shown
in the attached images is currently only available on new
cars ordered with the HGTE package via the Carrozzeria
Scaglietti Personalisation Programme.
