Ferrari FXX Evolution (2008)

<div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.modifiedcars.com/pix/cars_large/21730_28610.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="Ferrari FXX Evolution image" border="0" src="http://www.modifiedcars.com/pix/cars_large/21730_28610.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; display: block; height: 263px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 400px;" /></a><b>Ferrari FXX Evolution (2008)</b><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;">Seven-times <b>Formula 1</b> World Champion <b>Michael Schumacher</b> also joined the ranks of the client test drivers and gave the programme the benefit of his vast experience on several occasions. Thanks to readings taken over the 16,500 kilometres of tests carried out in 2006 and the 18,500 kilometres covered in 2007, the modifications made to the car have focused on honing its aerodynamics, running gear and electronics. In fact, the Ferrari FXX prototype is <b>designed exclusively</b> for track driving as part of a specific R&D programme agreed with a selected group of just over 20 clients involving 14 group test sessions and 14 private ones in the last two years.<br /><br /> The Ferrari FXX is not homologated for road use and there are no plans to compete with it either. The FXXs equipped with this package will also sport a new livery in addition to new rear wing profiles. The package was developed as a result of Ferrari's collaboration with its Client <b>Test Drivers</b> and with the invaluable support of Michael Schumacher. <b>The Ferrari FXX</b>, which is the most advanced GT ever created at Maranello, has been updated with an evolution package aimed at further improving its handling and performance.  The innovative <b>FXX programme</b>, based on the eponymous prototype car and launched by Ferrari in June 2005, is being extended to 2008/2009. </div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.carphotomobil.com/ferrari/FXX_Evolution_2008/FXX_Evolution_05.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://www.carphotomobil.com/ferrari/FXX_Evolution_2008/FXX_Evolution_05.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; display: block; height: 299px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 400px;" /></a><b>Ferrari FXX Evolution (2008)</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.sportscarcup.com/cars/black-ferrari-fxx-front.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://www.sportscarcup.com/cars/black-ferrari-fxx-front.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; display: block; height: 270px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 401px;" /></a><b>Ferrari FXX Evolution (2008)</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.seriouswheels.com/pics-2008/def/2008-Ferrari-FXX-Evolution-Front-Top-1280x960.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://www.seriouswheels.com/pics-2008/def/2008-Ferrari-FXX-Evolution-Front-Top-1280x960.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; display: block; height: 300px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 401px;" /></a><b>Ferrari FXX Evolution (2008)</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.gulum.net/arabalar/resimler/Ferrari_FXX-evo_277_1024x768.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://www.gulum.net/arabalar/resimler/Ferrari_FXX-evo_277_1024x768.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; display: block; height: 300px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 400px;" /></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">Ferrari FXX Evolution (2008)</span></div>

The ride height has also been lowered which in turn lowers the car's centre of gravity. The package includes a modified set-up with stiffer springs and rear anti-roll bar as well as new calibration settings for the magnetorheological shock absorbers when the manettino is at its sportier settings. Now <b>Ferrari</b> is introducing the<b> new Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano HGTE</b> (Handling Gran Turismo Evoluzione) package for the model to further underscore its sportiness and handling.  When it first debuted, the<b> Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano</b> set a new standard in terms of performance that remains a benchmark for <b>new sports car</b> development to this day. </div><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano HGTE (2010)</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.torquemagazine.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Ferrari-599_GTB_Fiorano_HGTE_2010_1600x1200_wallpaper_02.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://www.torquemagazine.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Ferrari-599_GTB_Fiorano_HGTE_2010_1600x1200_wallpaper_02.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; display: block; height: 300px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 400px;" /></a><b>Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano HGTE (2010)</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.caranddriver.com/var/ezwebin_site/storage/images/reviews/hot_lists/high_performance/supercars_and_exotics/2010_ferrari_599gtb_fiorano_hgte_first_drive_review/2010_ferrari_599gtb_fiorano_hgte/2010_ferrari_599gtb_fiorano_hgte_25/2161015-1-eng-US/2010_ferrari_599gtb_fiorano_hgte_25_zoomed.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://www.caranddriver.com/var/ezwebin_site/storage/images/reviews/hot_lists/high_performance/supercars_and_exotics/2010_ferrari_599gtb_fiorano_hgte_first_drive_review/2010_ferrari_599gtb_fiorano_hgte/2010_ferrari_599gtb_fiorano_hgte_25/2161015-1-eng-US/2010_ferrari_599gtb_fiorano_hgte_25_zoomed.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; display: block; height: 244px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 400px;" /></a><b>Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano HGTE (2010)</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.devicemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/ferrari-599-gtb-fiorano-hgte-1.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://www.devicemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/ferrari-599-gtb-fiorano-hgte-1.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; display: block; height: 267px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 401px;" /></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano HGTE (2010)</span></div>
