RTB thank you for such a great thread! I have a few questions myself if you don't mind. Are any of the FXX modified, basically aside from drivers are some of the FXX different? Is there only one Nero FXX? Has an FXX ever been sold, and if so was it given back to Ferrari to sell or was it "illegally" sold? Thank you in advance. I would love to see more pictures!!!
I believe there are 3 Black FXX's, 1 with a white stripe belonging to Manuma (F-Chatter), the Solid Black belonging to Schumi, and the Carbon Black belonging to Jean Todt. (?) 1 Canadian FXX is currently shared by 2 drivers/owners.
All the FXXs are basically the same, although MS's has a custom MS interior. The only black cars that I am aware of are MS's and the "regular" FXX with the stripe........ Not sure whether any have been sold by either Ferrari or anyone else, but all the guys that normally drive when I drive have been involved since the start.
my questions did you actually buy the FXX or just invested into the program? is it normally stored at your own garage or do Ferrari keep it on your behalf,if so then where as i want to see pics!!!! will you ever take the car out in the UK somewhere apart from a ferrari event? i'm off to Silverstone on the 27th August on a track day with the GTROC (Skyline's) and if you do take it to a track,would there EVER be a chance of a passenger ride? thanks
Yes, we buy the cars! Ferrari keep my car at Maranello when it is not being driven, but we can keep the car where we want to whenever we want to. But it's best to do it all through Ferrari - it is a development programme, after all! May take her out in the UK again sometime, but not until next year now.
Not part of the world tour, but still an FXX http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i140/Cozmic_Kid/Random_pics/IMG_0818.jpg

Wow, what a nice thread. This must be nice to fly around the world, and drive your FXX on all this nice circuits! Thanks for the pics an the backstage informations. I hope to see the FXX next year, somewhere here in Europe. But i will be at Spa this weekend for the Le Mans Series. Wil you be there yourself with your team? Hope to see a nice race!!!

FXXs will be at Paul Ricard and Mugello this year, so no need to wait until next year. And yes, I'll be at Spa for the Le Mans Series!
Thanks for the pics - Spa was the first European round for the FXX Programme. I have driven my car on circuits at Fiorano, Mugello, Spa, Nurburgring, Monza, Barcelona, Bahrain, Silverstone, Shanghai and Suzuka. It has been on display and "driven" at Le Mans and Goodwood. I think that she has done around 2500km.
From what I hear locally, Toronto FXX owner Lorne Leibel is credited as having the most km's on his car so far.
