So it would stand to reason that Maranello would be planning to replace the controversial 2+2 flagship before its smaller siblings were updated, and reason may now be affirmed by the latest reports and spy shots emanating from Europe.<br /><br />This prototype Scaglietti was spied around the factory in Maranello wearing some intriguing bodywork around the front section, suggesting that Ferrari may be testing a new or updated V12 engine for the 612's replacement. With increasing pressure to reduce emissions and improve fuel economy, Ferrari could be working on a more efficient powerplant for the next generation of its largest model. <br /><br />The current Scaglietti has been on the market essentially unchanged since 2003, and its replacement is tipped to arrive by 2011.<br /><br />[Source: <a href="http://www.autoweek.nl/autonieuws/11395/Ferrari-612-Scaglietti-plek-voor-een-schoon-hart">AutoWeek.nl</a>]<p style="padding:5px;backgr ound:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/04/06/spy-shots-replacement-for-ferrari-612-scaglietti-could-get-a-gr/">Spy Shots: Replacement for Ferrari 612 Scaglietti could get a greener engine</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblo g</a> on Mon, 06 Apr 2009 17:58:00 EST.
