I don't think so. See these threads. People asked the same question.

Would you consider getting one if they make it?

I don't know. I afraid these company's are starting to make them so big there maybe a weight issue and there is a point of being ridiculous. I think I'd have to ask what are some of the advantages over the 600, would it be cost effective to own or not. I personally would look at the size of the gas tank, that will tell you a lot. I guess what you're going to use it for could play a part.

NEW! The Hustler Raptor!!

Being a Gravely "fan", since purchasing my Pro-Turn 152 XDZ last fall, thought I'd mention the new base Pro-Turn introduced by Gravely for 2013. They are very high-end Residential/low-end Commercial 48"-to-60" ZTR's that are between the Gravely ZT HD Residential and my Pro-Turn 100 Commercial series. Compared to mine, these Pro-Turns come with the Kawasaki FS(Heavy Duty), instead of the FX(Commercial) engines....B & S Commercial Turf on the 60"; HydroGear ZT-3200, instead of the ZT-3400 trannies; 10gauge, instead of the 7gauge deck and the spring-suspension, intead of the air-suspension seat. Other than those differences, they seem to be the same quality Gravely build as the Pro-Turn 100 Commercial series. User NeverGiveUp on these forums bought a 52" and seems to be very pleased with it. They are also reasonably priced(compared to similar models across the brands) at $5,999.00 To $6,499.00 making them a "worth looking at" if that is the range you are looking to spend on a new ZTR. I too love my Gravely and even though I looked at a bunch of other fine ZTR's last fall I've never looked back after making my purchase. A link to the Pro-Turn is below:
