The Ferrari Millenio designed by Marko Petrovic (27-year-old Serbian designer), is a two-seater supercar concept that features ultra-light weight design with implemented high tech body materials. Inspired from the Ferrari World Park in Abu Dhabi, it features complex back-and-forth body surfaces, textures and materials. Unique about the Ferrari Millenio concept is its body structure made of Buckypaper, a thin sheet made from compressed carbon nanotubes, which is 10 times lighter and over 500 times stronger than steel. The concept feature two electric motors (one for every axle) which can be recharged via solar panels molded around the bodywork or through a traditional power point socket. The Millenio also features multiple LCD-displays throughout the cockpit with the prominent speedometer being the main point of the interior.

► Ferrari 488 GTB driven on road and track ► It's the successor to the sublime 458 Italia ► But has turbocharging ruined the magic? The new 488 GTB is Ferrari’s replacement for the 458 Italia, which is a bit of a big deal: the 458 remained top of its class some five years after launch. The 488 is essentially a very thorough evolution of the 458, so you might expect Maranello to simply find another gear and power away from the opposition. But there’s one big sticking point: after years of naturally aspirated V8s that screamed to as high as 9000rpm, the GTB adopts a downsized and twin-turbocharged V8. And this, more than anything, will be crucial in how the new model is received. This is Ferrari’s second attempt at turbocharging in the modern era – the California T was the first since 1987’s seminal F40 and while the folding hardtop’s engine is technically impressive, it can’t match the excitement of the old V8. There’...

Ferrari 275 GTB/4 left to the lifeboat charityFerrari 250 GT SWB: not your average will bequest ► Richard Colton leaves two Ferraris to RNLI ► Lifeboat charity to auction 60s supercars ► Could raise £8m, say auctioneers Businessman Richard Colton amassed a rather special car collection in his lifetime - and he’s left two of the finest, a pair of Ferraris, to Britain’s lifeboat charity in his will. Northamptonshire-based Colton, who died in March 2015 aged 82, has donated his 1960 Ferrari 250 GT SWB and 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 to the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI). The keen member of the Ferrari Owners’ Club wanted the pair to raise money for a new lifeboat named after him and his late wife Caroline. The Ferrari lifeboat auction Auction specialist H&H Classics, which is handling the sale for the RNLI at a sale on 14 October 2015, said other cars in the Colton collection include a Ferrari 550 Maranello, Jaguar E-Type 'Lightwe...

The Ferrari 250 GTO is a racing GT car which was produced by Ferrari from 1962 to 1964 for homologation into the FIA's Group 3 Grand Touring Car category. In May 2012 the 1962 250 GTO made for Stirling Moss became the world's most expensive car in the history, selling in a private transaction for $38,115,000 to US communications magnate Craig McCaw. In October 2013, Connecticut-based collector Paul Pappalardo sold chassis number 5111GT to an unnamed buyer for a new record of $52 Million. The numerical part of its name denotes the displacement in cubic centimeters of each cylinder of the engine, whilst GTO stands for "Gran Turismo Omologato", Italian for "Grand Touring Homologated." When new, the GTO cost $18,000 in the United States, and buyers had to be personally approved by Enzo Ferrari and his dealer for North America, Luigi Chinetti. 39 250 GTOs were manufactured between 1962 and 1964. This includes 33 cars with 1962-63 bodywork (Series I), three cars ...

That name's a bit of a mouthful. What's it all about? It's the replacement for the much-loved but dull-looking 575, a two-seat coupe based on the four-place 612 Scaglietti. The numbers refer to the capacity of the V12 (5999cc) and Fiorano is the name of company's Maranello test-track where its road and race cars are developed. So what are headlines? Where to start? It's made from aluminium so strong and relatively light. The gearbox is mounted in unit with the rear diff to allow the best possible weight distribution and can shift gears in two thirds of the time it takes an Enzo because the clever techy people at Ferrari have persuaded the gears to move before the cutch has even disengaged. The 612bhp engine comes from the Enzo (albeit with minor tweaks), and the whole lot can lap Fiorano in the same time it takes a 360 Challenge Stradale. So it's no boulevardier then? It can be if you so wish, the ride is firm but not uncomfortable and the low-speed gearcha...

Hasn’t the 612 Scaglietti been around for a while? Yes it has. It was launched in 2004, but Ferrari has just revealed a special HGT-S pack for it. It costs a steep £7420, but that’s fairly insignificant given that the standard car already costs £175,725. And when you appreciate what the extra money buys it starts to make more sense. Cosmetically, the changes are limited to 19-inch wheels at the front and yellow brake callipers, which stood out a treat against the deep blue of CAR Online's test car. Under the skin, you get sports exhausts with valves that open at 3000rpm to make the noise even better, a revised control system for the adaptive suspension and shorter gearshift times. Tell me more… The V12 already makes a pretty sensational sound in the standard car but more recently the two-seat 599 has set a new standard for aural excellence. This new exhaust for the 612 really redresses that balance. You get the full range of noises from the burble at idle ...

It’s not exactly the new Dino some were expecting, but the launch of any new Ferrari is worth getting excited about. Yes, even if, like the new California, it’s poles apart from the brilliant Scuderia. CAR broke new e-turf back at the California launch in October 2008, when we filed a real-time test drive, blogging live from the Sicilian event with our first impressions of Ferrari's new coupe-cabriolet. So if it’s not a Dino, what is the new Ferrari California? The California is a front-engined GT, Ferrari’s first front-engined-V8, its first coupe-cabrio and its first to be fitted with a dual-clutch gearbox. That’s a lot of firsts. Here’s another one: it’s the first Ferrari that has been designed specifically to attract women to the brand. Excuse the misogynist tone, but you had me all fired up until that! We’re with you. There are plenty of women who appreciate drivers’ cars just as there are many men who don’t. But when ...

This HGTE handling package for the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano was launched at the Geneva Motor Show in March and we’ve just been to Fiorano, appropriately, to test it. With Ferrari predicting the same sales in 2009 as 2008, despite the addition of around 2000 Californias, it plainly needs help shifting its current models, and particularly the V12s. But will the idea of spending an extra £13,960 for some chassis, gearbox and trim tweaks be enough to tempt existing 599 owners to upgrade? So what does the HGTE pack give you for fourteen grand? No engine modifications, for a start – not that the magnificent, Enzo-derived 612bhp V12 needs them. For the 2008 model year it cut emissions from 490g/km to 415 and consumption from 13.3mpg to 15.7; very impressive, if not exactly the kind of bar-room boasts that would tempt existing owners to change. So the HGTE package aims to do that. It lowers the car by 10mm and springs are 17% stiffer at the front and 15% at the back. The magn...
