The Fiorano 599 currently holds the record for the largest HP/Liter ratio (103 HP/Liter) for a production car, and the 599XX will have an even larger HP/Liter ratio. Most of the new technology introduced with the 599XX will be about electronics: suspensions, ignition, and transmission.

Both the FXX, and the 599XX are currently used in Maranello (near Modena) and surroundings (Ferrari owns a private track in Maranello) by a group of selected former developers/drivers -Schumaker is one of them- (what Ferrari defines as “selected clients”) to allow a smooth, reliable, and secretive transfer of F1 technology onto the upcoming new Ferrari, which is the “F70″.

Enzo Ferrari himself developed new cars by using special “XX”. For instance, the F40, which was the last car Enzo Ferrari personally worked onto, was developed with a “XX” version of the GTO 288. Back then, the “XX” was called “Evoluzione (Evolution)”

Following is a link that shows a video of of a regular GTO 288, another one that shows a video of the GTO 288 “XX” EVoluzione, and a third one that shows a video of Enzo Ferrari's personal F40.

Like what the Enzo had when it became the FXX. I hope the 599XX has a large visual change over the the regular 599 GTB. Like what the Enzo had when it became the FXX.
