    Not sure what the deal is but I do know the car has been relisted many many times. Seems that this is the lowest price though.

    Not sure about the interior.

    Sometimes a guy says its time for it to go.

    Read back a few weeks. Something about it being "jumped" or frame stress

    search back in this forum, i believe that is the same car that the owner confessed to "jumping" or getting airborne quite a few times. All i know is what was printed in on this site. some strange 190mph dash to las vegas that included the car leaving the road surface resulting in possible frame damage.

    I was looking at buying it..I can not find the thread..but it is not even worth looking at with any kind of frame issues..

    Can anyone shed any more light on this?

    Look carefully, the front hood does not line up with the front bumper and the rear 3/4 picture shows the rear bumper not lining up correctly with the rear quarter panel. New wheels, new interior....suspicious to me.

    And the rear quarter panel and bumper gaps are off because?....

    And if as you state, "the hood was not shut"...then explain why the gap on the left side when facing the car is a good 3/4 of inch wider than the right side.

    let me guess...

    Is this your car?

    Um, then why not trade it and be done with it?

    I wouldn't come out shouting, it will only add credibility to your critics.

    I'd like to see your answer in one of the many "How did you get your Ferrari" threads.....

    Probably a lot more entertaining than you'd like it to be.

    Here are some pictures of an "un-jumped" 575M. See the difference? By the way, the blue Porsche C4 cab in the background is for sale. AS you see it, it has it's hard top on. PM me if you are interested.

    The worst thing about the silver/blue Ferrari isn't the bent body, maybe it can be re-jigged......but those wheels just make it look cheap. I like the interior though.

    Which is why you're selling it!
    (tongue planted in cheek)



    MVD,
    I thought your new Porsche was green, you showed us the photos of it - do you have duplicates of these
    or
    are you taking the Angelie Jolie adoption attitude of "collecting them all"?
