Spy photo ! April 2016, an unidentified Ferrari sneaking out of a gate of the workshops in Maranello…a striking ‘one off’ Ferrari that fooled some ambitious journalists.
In mid-April a number of serious European car media organizations published ‘spy photos’ of a prototype caught in and around Maranello, the fiefdom of Ferrari.
Speculation was that it could be the new Ferrari 489, successor of the present 488 models. Last week Ferrari unveiled the secret at their private testing track Fiorano near Maranello. But the ‘scoop’ turned out not to be what the journalist had imagined.
