Building a Ferrari 599
 

I know I'm a homo for making non-contributive posts in the BS section but this program is mental. A must see for any auto enthusiast. I'm fairly sure they're incorrect about some of their facts, namely the vehicle weight, and it's dumbed down a bit, but it's still sickk (two k's for a double dose of super sickness).

your av is pretty much the bomb.

Oh, yeah I saw that a while back on TV, their factory is top notch.

More info.

One of the Discovery channels ran a program showing the Ferrari factory and how they build a 599. BTW they also had others; one showing how BMW builds (I think it was the M4?) and the Corvette factory.

Pretty cool stuff.

I was uhm, watching TV and they played the show linked by the OP. :yippee:

They also showed the factory where the Apaches are made, that was pretty cool as well.

U guys SUK...
After watching 5min of that I'm hooked, but I refuse to watch it on anything other than my 61" HDTV...
That said, anyone know a place that has this dvd in stock??? Already tried renting from Blockbuster and also searched at Circuit City, Bestbuy, Walmart, & Target...
I want it asap, but can only find them online...

I was talking about the Jewish Nascar.

Jews rule the media/entertainment. Give it time and well rule Nascar :cool:

2500lbs sounds right...no?

although their facts about ferrari being the winniest (is that a word?) in the history of F1 can't be right. maybe in the schui era, but they used to suck!

I didn't watch the whole thing, too long for right now. Thanks for the link though. I prefer the 612 over the 599. Those weird C pillars just don't do it for me.

this is why ferraris are bad ass, and lambos are for ------s.

Oh, right, because that was made perfectly clear...:bowrofl:

Wow! that was a long video. And I just saw the whole thing at work. :bang:

The video said the 599 weighs a ton and a quarter. And they said the 500# engine comprised 1/5th of the total vehicle weight. My calculator tells me that = 2500# in both cases.

All other sources (that I can find) indicate anywhere from 3722 to 3750# for curb weight.

I'm frequently wrong, and so is the internetz, so don't bank on any of this...
