Photographer Mike Olivella snapped some great photos from the filming of a new commercial for the 2007 Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano . The ad stars the 599 and alongside a 1990s Ferrari F40. “The 599 had a V-12, 620-horsepower engine, but it was not in the same class as the F40,” Mike Olivella continued. “Most of the spectators (the few that were there) commented that the car looked more like a Jaguar than a Ferrari, and were more enthralled by the F40 than the 599.” But everyone agreed on one thing. “The drivers were incredible. I drove the road that they filmed the cars on, and it was a very windy, up and down two-lane road. These guys really opened the cars up and to watch them negotiate the turns and the dips was something to see.” (See also: Ferrari F599 drifting photos, and the official announcement of the Ferrari 599 GTB).
