Ferrari Reveals the Limited Run F60 America
Ferrari has unveiled the limited-run F60America. The special edition model was developed to celebrate the company's 60th anniversary in North America and only 10 units of the model will be built. Before you get all excited and think this is an all-new Ferrari, let me burst your bubble, because it isn't.

The front and rear of the car have been modified and wear the North American Racing Team (NART) livery with 60th anniversary Prancing Horse badges on the wheel arches.
Inside, the car adopts a red & black theme with the American flag adorning the seats and there's also a lightweight fabric top which can be used at speeds of up to 120Km/h. There is no change when it comes to the heart of the car i.e. the 6262cc V12 naturally aspirated engine that develops 740bhp and 690Nm. Now, as far as its performance figures are concerned, power is sent to the rear wheels via a dual-clutch 7-speed gearbox and the F60America sprints from 0-100Km/h in 3.1 seconds, which is the same as the F12 Berlinetta.
