During a recent trip to Maranello to visit the Ferrari Museum, Carscoop reader Edward Chew along with a close friend spotted this heavily camouflaged Ferrari prototype (or test mule) doing the rounds on the Italian firm’s Fiorano test track.
Edward tells us that he and his friend were not sure what kind of model might be hiding behind all that cladding.
If you take a closer look at the prototype in the scoop pictures, you’ll see that it has an extremely low bonnet and air outlets located at the rear end of the car, which can only mean that this is a mid-engine Ferrari model.
Now, we only know of one new mid-engined supercar that Ferrari has officially confirmed, and that’s the Enzo’s successor.
In a recent interview with members of the press during the presentation of the 458 Italia Spider, Ferrari CEO Amedeo Felisa said that the flagship Ferrari model would be revealed before the end of 2012 adding that it would continue to use a mid-mounted V12 engine.
Many thanks to Edward Chew for the scoop!
