Automotive Car | Novitec Rosso Ferrari 599 SA Aperta | As to style, the tuning group added special lightweight wheels. The fronts measure 21 inches and weigh just 23 pounds, while the rear 22-inch wheels weigh 30 pounds — which is comparatively light for such large-diameter rolling stock. The SA Aperta also benefits from Novitec Rosso springs that lower its ride height by 1.6 inches. Finally, the car gets new a carbon-fiber splitter, rear fascia, and side skirts, as along with black-tinted tail- and foglights.
NOVITEC ROSSO now makes the drop-top version of the Ferrari 599 SA Aperta even more powerful and fascinating. A twin-supercharger conversion bumps power output of the V12 from standard 670 to 888 hp and boosts peak torque to 636 lb/ft, giving the two-seater a top speed of more than 211 mph. The NOVITEC ROSSO options for the limited-edition special model also include extremely lightweight NOVITEC ROSSO forged wheels in a staggered combination with diameters of 21 and 22 inches, sport springs and a stainless-steel high-performance exhaust system with butterfly valve.
Ferrari built just 80 copies of the 599 SA Aperta, which makes the roadster a pretty special car. But for owners who want the car to feel still more special, Novitec Rosso has a new tuning kit for the SA Aperta. The conversion begins by bolting two superchargers to the Ferrari’s 6.0-liter V-12 engine. Novitec Rosso also adds a new intake manifold, larger fuel injectors, new exhaust manifolds, and a reprogrammed engine computer. The result is 888 hp at 8400 rpm and 636 lb-ft of torque at 6600 rpm, which Novitec Rosso says is enough to launch the SA Aperta to 124 mph in just 9.1 seconds, and toward a top speed of 211 mph.
The power increase by 218 hp to 888 hp at 8,400 rpm means the two-seater now offers power that is as superlative as its new peak torque of 636 lb/ft at 6,600 rpm, a gain of 178 lb/ft over its production brethren. Together with the F1 Superfast six-speed transmission the NOVITEC ROSSO bi-compressor version delivers exceptional performance. From rest the car sprints to 62 mph in just 3.1 seconds. After 9.1 seconds it reaches a speed of 124 mph; the 186 mph barrier shatters after 21.9 seconds. Top speed is in excess of 211 mph.
The body of the Ferrari SA APERTA is refined by NOVITEC ROSSO in a few details. Supplemental GTO-style front spoiler lip, side skirts and rear fascia that match the look of the front fascia of the special model are installed on the car. All clear-coated carbon-fiber components come with a matte finish for a true racing look. Further understated highlights are added by the NOVITEC ROSSO black lamps that are available for all 599 models. The set includes tail lamps, third brake light, rear fog lamp and side markers. Given that all 80 copies of the 599 SA Aperta have already been sold, we doubt there is an enormous market for this latest Novitec Rosso twist. Buyers who do opt for the upgrade, however, will have one seriously unique car.
