 Gran Turismo Omologato! Three words that bring to mind only one thing: performance! Ever since the first Ferrari 250 GTO was released in 1962 they were made to be driven fast. The 599 GTO is made with those same things in mind. The 599 GTO tops out at 335 km/h [208 mph ], that’s over 93 m [300 feet] per second. It’s 5999 cc [366 cu in] V-12 engine provides 661 horsepower which is more than enough to bring the GTO from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.3 seconds! However with Ferrari limiting production to just 599 cars this is indeed a rare performer.

For the Modeler: This is the 1:24 scale skill level 3 Revell Ferrari 599 GTO Kit #85-4034. Upon opening the kit you immediately realize a few things: one this kit builds only as the 599 GTO, two this is a skill 3 kit  for the intermediate modeler and at one hundred and twenty-nine pieces this kit is very detailed. This kit consists of 129 pieces molded in white plastic with chrome and clear parts and soft vinyl tires and waterslide decals. Lastly some good news for all of us there is no flash to be found anywhere on this kit. This 1/24 scale kit features a detailed V-12 GTO engine, six-speed transmission, open side and hood louvers and movable tires. The finished model’s dimensions are Length: 7-1/2″, Width: 3-1/2″, Height: 2-1/8″.
