    The 575M was my first Ferrari, sold it in 2010 and now regret it. I miss this car. Also I miss from time to time shifting a Ferrari 6 speed manual.
    That's why I'm looking to find a Maranello car with 6 speed manual.
    If you have one for sale, please contact me by email ([email protected]) or phone 310-498-5030. My preferences would be for a red/tan or silver/burgundy.

    Thanks,
    Chris

    Saw it, but car is $300K with reserve not met (no wonder!) and black inside. This car is not worth that kind of money for me.

    The 550 they have looks good (my favorite color combination) but there is no Scuderia shields on this one. How can you order a Ferrari without the Scuderia Shields?
    But I will contact them shortly anyway. Thanks for the lead.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but all shields on the 550's are aftermarket. Were the shields an option on the 575?

    Late model 550 and 575 had the shields as an option.

    Yellow is a great color on the 550! Looks like a very nice example.

    I agree. I don't like yellow at all, but it suites a 550 very well!

    Really like the yellow on this car. It should be an easy sale.

    I'm less familiar with the 550, so please don't shoot me.
    But with the 575, it was a standard option, that most owners would choose.

    Historically, shields are reserved for race cars and special edition cars, i.e. supercars as non-optional items. On any car for which they're an option, they technically should not be there.

    Craislist car is asking correct price. I know of other similar cars that traded in that ballpark in the last week. They could go to 200k for cars like that in 1 year. Who knows...

    Just bought a 575 M Manual in Black, 2005, one owner 17,000 miles. Fabulous. Buy while stocks last !

    I drove it 200 miles yesterday and was so impressed and am lucky to have some lovely other cars eg 458 SA

    The Craigslist Maranello is still there. If there's nothing wrong with it, at 8000 miles, it's an interesting one at the price.

    I am also hunting for a 6 speed 550. the stock is drying up on the lower end of the price spectrum. I feel like I have to keep checking daily until the right one pops up.
