Ferrari is the latest manufacturer to claim a lap record on the famed N\u00fcrburgring<\/a>, with the race-ready 599XX. ( Click here<\/a> to read our review of the burly beast.) Test driver Raffaele De Simone lapped the German track just in 6 minutes, 58 seconds. Click here<\/a> to watch an in-car video of the lap.<\/p>\n

Ferrari says the 599XX is the first \u201cproduction-derived\u201d car to lap the ‘Ring under seven minutes, although using the word “production” here, while technically true, seems like a stretch. The 599XX has Lexan windows instead of glass, a trick active downforce system complete with trunk-mounted fans, costs $1.5 million, and isn’t road-legal. In our book, that\u2019s pretty far from production, no matter how similar the bodywork is to a regular 599GTB. Regardless, 6:58 is blisteringly quick and a testament to the 599XX\u2019s monstrous performance levels.<\/p>\n
