    Looking for the 599 owner of 150816. I have the "Birth Certificate" photo book if he/she wants it.

    Would you mind sharing some pictures with us, what does a ´birth book´ look like?

    Jeff, did you own this car? Did it have a stick or paddles?

    Yes. Paddles. Grigio Silverstone. Lost track of the car when it went to Florida.

    It's the VIP Book that Ferrari said was pictures of my 599. I don't think it was anything special. Ferrari probably took the same pictures of ANY 599 going down the assembly line and sent the same pictures to all 599 owners.

    That's an interesting thought. Just for fun we should get a few owners to compare their pictures for any inconsistencies. If anyone is on board I'll upload mine.

    Thanks, Jeff!

    A friend of mine (used to post here under the name EFWUN, may he rest in peace) ordered an F430 with red calipers. Ferrari sent him the VIP book with pictures of his car on the assembly line; the pictures exactly matched the spec he ordered. When he took delivery of the car - the calipers were black. He didn't get pictures of his car, just a car that looked like it. We both thought it was funny.

    That made me take out my book and study the final picture closely. It's a low angle nose shot so I never paid much attention to it, but it turned out to be a right hand drive car with challenge wheels. Obviously not my car.
    Meh.
