We’ve always thought that when it comes to Ferraris, the 599 would have made a lot more sense as a convertible than the 430 or 458. Think about it - roadsters are always slower, heavier and more rigid than their coupe kin, and pure supercars shouldn’t be compromised, while GT have the right sort of relaxed attitude.
This drop-top Prancing Horse is called the the Ferrari 599 SA Aperta and it was spotted by Alex Molik wearing Qatar plates. The limited production topless version of the 599 model has debuted in Paris back in 2010 and is the first application of the HELE (High Emotion Low Emissions). According to Ferrari, the SA APERTA celebrates Pininfarina’s 80th year of activity and pays homage to Sergio and Andrea.
“The SA APERTA is a new concept: a completely open-top interpretation of the architectural philosophy of the 599. It is an authentic roadster and comes with just an emergency soft top designed for use only if the weather gets particularly bad,” Ferrari says.
