YouTuber drives rare manual Ferrari 599 GTB
A YouTuber recently drove a Ferrari 599 GTB, showcasing the experience in an onboard video. The 599 GTB is special because it is the last Ferrari model with a V-12 engine that could be operated with a manual transmission. Driving this car is a rare privilege. The video, featured on the Tedward YouTube channel, shows the driver in action for about ten minutes. Although manual transmissions were less popular among supercar buyers in the mid-2000s, Ferrari produced just over 20 manual versions of the 599 before the model ended. The car in the video has been converted to have a manual gearbox, including original-style metal shift gates. The sound of the V-12 engine is a major highlight of the video. The car is tuned to deliver around 700 horsepower, similar to the more powerful 599 GTO model. Fans of the Ferrari brand and car enthusiasts will enjoy hearing the distinct engine sound throughout the drive. The video invites viewers to turn up the volume and appreciate the sonic experience.
