Using a special launch mode shown to us by a Ferrari test driver on hand, the computer handles traction control and shifting. Launched in this manner, the 599 squats down hard on its rear 305/35ZR-20 Pirelli P Zero tires, lifts its nose and, with nary a bit of wheelspin, pins you back into the seat as it explodes to 60 mph in just 3.2 seconds.

Which means without electronic aids the car is no quicker than the competitin.

Yes, that’s right, quicker than an Enzo. That’s also quicker than the McLaren F1, the Porsche Carrera GT and 911 Turbo and the Saleen S7 Twin Turbo, and a tie with the 650-bhp Ruf Rt 12.

What is the point of comparing an electronic aided launch 0-60 time with the "human controlled" launch of the others?
Sort of seems a little silly.
The car is fantastic, but it seems ike the Veyron, is just a very expensive PlayStation when you get down to it
CGT all the way.
