New 460 GT!



The 456 Gt will be getting a replacement with the 460 GT. It will be powered by a 5.5 litre V-12, based on the Enzo's 6.0 litre engine. It is said that the engine will produce 575 hp, and will be connected to the 6 speed f1 paddle shift transmission. The car will debut at the 2004 Detroit Auto Show!

I also saw a cleaned up picture of it in the May issue of Automobile Magazine. It looks beautiful. The lights are similar to those on the 575. There is a hood scoop, and wheels are taken from the 575 (Don't worry, the cleaned up version looks very different from spy photos). I haven't seen or heard anything about the 420.

Here's what appears to be a Photoshopped pic of a 460.

Obviously the 460 is being developed first, to debut in 2004, so the 420 will probably follow a year or two later. The 420 is basically an answer to Lambo's Gallardo, so it will be a radical design change from the 360 and will have more power.

Ferrari have revealed some more information about their new supercar. The V12 engine will produce 540 bhp, powering the new Ferrari to a top speed of more than 300 kph (180 mph). The engine will be behind the front axle line and in a transaxle style, the gearbox and differential are part of the rear axle. This is to leave space for the 2+2 interior, which Ferrari claims '…will comfortably accommodate four occupants'. The chassis and body panels of the new car will be made of aluminium.
