The 599xx is an awesome machine but I would take this instead. Its a bit more useful on the street.

They've been using the FXX's as testbeds for new technology and systems that end up in their road cars. Mind you, this is the same treatment people get when they "buy" one of Ferrari's F1 cars. They have full service of the vehicle by Ferrari mechanics/engineers, and you get to run it a few times if you're lucky.
I'd much rather have a different form of dedicated track car, without all the nanny stuff.

I believe this car ran the best time around the Top Gear track....by far. And is yet to be topped.

Is this even a question? Who wouldn't want to be baller enough to have a car that the Ferrari factory takes care of for you and hauls to the track for you. If you're that dude, you're awesome and probably have plenty of other cars to play with when you want to.
