From the looks of it, it seems the prancing horse is going to get quite a workout until 2013, as the company has lined up not one but six new cars or variants of the ones already on the market.

First off, 2011 will see the introduction of a Spider version for the 458 Italia that will replace the aging F430 Spider from the current lineup. Project F151 is next, consisting of a replacement for the 612 Scaglietti grand tourer which might even get to see the first implementation of the KERS-enabled hybrid system we saw on the Ferrari 599 HY-KERS concept in Geneva.

In 2012 Ferrari is going to launch a successor to the Enzo hypercar that will push its engineers to its limits. Besides that, the year will also see the manifestation of project F152, a replacement for the aging 599 GTB Fiorano.

2013 will see the introduction of some more hardcore variants for both the California roadster and the 458 Italia. The California M will likely receive an array of new features to increase its luxury and performance, while the 458 Scuderia is going the lighter and faster route, in order to offer something for track and day to day use.

Overall, a lot of new things are coming for Ferrari fans, so better get your check books ready!
