In the market for a Ferrari LaFerrari but put off by the compromises of a street-legal car? According to Top Gear, the Maranello company is building a 1050-hp track-only LaFerrari XX that will launch in Abu Dhabi next month. Fly your private jet down to the UAE and have a gander.Top Gear says company insiders confirm that the even-more-hyper version of Ferrari’s hypercar will get a 100-hp boost over the roadgoing version. The power is gained from tweaking the car’s V-12 engine—the battery-powered half of the hybrid’s drivetrain maintains its stock output at 161 horsepower.As with Ferrari’s other XX-labeled products, this über-LaFerrari is a track-only machine. It has racing tires, aerodynamic enhancements, and a purposeful interior with a proper racing seat and harness. Like the Enzo-based FXX, each LaFerrari XX will live in Maranello even after purchase, looked after by Ferrari’s technical team, and each will be shipped to eight races a year for their owners to get the most out of them. “We don’t want them going to collectors,” the Ferrari insider told Top Gear. “We want them to be driven.” The track beast will be unveiled at Ferrari’s World Finals in Abu Dhabi in early December.
