2008 Ferrari 599 Manual

INTRODUCTION

This exceptional 2008 Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano is presented in Rubino Micalizzato, one of Ferrari’s most captivating and sophisticated colours, paired with Crema Hide and Nuovo Rosso carpets.

Originally delivered to Saudi Arabia and now residing in the UK, this left hand drive example represents something truly extraordinary — a fine product of Ferrari’s Carrozzeria Scaglietti bespoke programme, further elevated by an SBR Manual Conversion completed in June 2025 and a comprehensive suite of GTO upgrades.

The SBR conversion features a shift-rod linkage system, faithful in design and feel to the factory manual cars, ensuring mechanical precision and authenticity. It also benefits from the very latest Trev360 software, which dramatically improves drivability. The result is transformative — this is the best manually converted 599 we have driven, offering an engagement and smoothness that easily surpass Ferrari’s original factory manuals.

Visually and mechanically, this is one of the finest and most beautifully specified 599s currently available in the UK. Quite simply, it is the best-looking and most complete 599 available this side of a genuine GTO or factory manual — yet offered at a fraction of the price.
