Ferrari Readying New 600 GTB? Teaser Briefly Appears on Official Site

Fresh from the announcement of the all-new 458 Italia, Ferrari published a teaser for a new model on its official site. In the list with the Prancing Horse company's road-going GT cars, right next to the 458 Italia, a box containing the text "600 GTB - Coming Soon" appeared for a few minutes before the Italians hastily removed the text. According to Quattroruote magazine, Ferrari said that the teaser was the result of an error.

Innocent mistake or not, the news spread around like a wildfire with many fans claiming that the 600 GTB will replace the 599 GTB Fiorano. Whatever the case may be, we'll keep a close eye on Ferrari's website for any future developments on the matter.
