In 2012, the next hypercar Ferrari will debut, based on the small production mystique of the Enzo. A new version of the 599 GTB Fiorano, currently known as F152, will also debut in 2012.
The Ferrari California will receive a major facelift in 2013 and is referred to as the California M. The sixth new model will also debut in 2013 as a variant of the 458 Italia, most likely called the 458 Scuderia.
