    White on Red is a great combo! I saw a White on Red F430 Spider and it was stunning! I think the 599 looks better in darker colors in general though, my dream 599 would be black on red.

    I'm not sure why you'd say Euro spec. It seems to have those ugly reflectors mandated on US cars, near the sheild.

    The color is gorgeous, though.

    I had a 911 turbo that color combo (Grand Prix White and Hell Red were the Porsche colors). I adored it, but it took some effort to sell when the time came.

    FWIW This 599 looks great with it.

    This white with a red interior color combination was also on one of the 599's that was seen recently. It was being road tested before delivery. White seems to be a more popular choice again.

    And they're all made out of ticky-tacky
    And they all look just the same."

    I will own a white/red car before I die.


    I used to love Mercedes and Audi since they would offer a royal blue interior color with an exterior of white on their top of the line cars, the CL600 and the A8L W12 respectivly. I've never seen either with that color though.

    white on red is not all that shocking.

    it was seen on several tr's back in their heyday and can be seen on few 348/355's. can't say the same for 456's or 550/575 though.

    it doesn't look that bad in white, although i would go pearl white. the interior would look better if it had some black to offset that plethora of red. i do like the contrasting white stitch, however, it is not as pronounced as if it were on black hides. the white piping provides a great look to the cf seats as well.

    Oh I dont know how to tell the difference between US and Eur spec, I just looked at the speedo in km/h... Just thought it would be too twisted to build a US spec car with dash dials in metric units.

    white/red isn't bad. My favorite is white/black. Black/red is nice also.

    It's good to see I wasnt the only one with this choice on a 911TT, although til this day I still get ribbed for that colour choice. And like you when it came time to sell, it was clearly an acquired taste. I do know from that experience though that the colour does appear more RED in photos, so that may be the case with this 599. I do love it though!
