The 599 of Ferrari has inspired a good range of potent variants. After the GTB Fiorano, the Italian car marque came up with the HGTE version which improved the car’s handling dynamics. Ferrari also released the HY-KERS concept, China Edition, GTO, and the track version 599XX. The Ferrari 599 aso had roadster variants in the form of the SA Aperta and the P540 Superfast.

The automotive world expects the 599 range to have a replacement soon, but there are rumors going around that a final variant may come off the assembly line to give the 599 a big bang exit.

Car forums and online boards are making a loud buzz as aficionados of the brand are speculating that Ferrari might pay homage to its Formula One star by doing a Fernando Alonso special edition Ferrari 599.

The words going around say that the 599 special edition in tribute of Fernando Alonso will be the lightest of the 599 brood, and of course quicker. Some say the Alonso Edition Ferrari 599 will be rolled out by January 2012 and will only have a limited run of forty units.

All the speculations might have stemmed from a video where the F1 driver Fernando Alonso took the F10 Tribute Edition around the track. You can watch this video we are talking about below. The car driven by Alonso though is a 599 GTO tweaked in Scuderia.

Ferrari has remained mum about the rumors and all we can do is wait if truly a Fernando Alonso 599 will be rolled out. In case Ferrari decides to give it a go, we will let you know.
