We already like Ferrari's 599GTB. So does the new HGTE package improve it, or introduce flaws to a fine supercar? To be honest, I don't think there's a lot wrong with the Ferrari 599 GTB. When we put our Top Five together for the Mercedes SL65 AMG road test the other week, nobody suggested that anything other than a 599, even two years after we road tested it, should snaffle the top spot. Ms wonderful. Still, Ferrari has chosen to make a few choice changes to the 599, available as an option as the HGTE package. It comprises a raft of suspension mods aimed at making the 599 a sharper and keener drive, so the key letter in the pack is H, for Handling. GT stands for, er, GT, and E for Evoluzione.
