    Wow... that's weird looking. At least they are neutral colors and not something crazy like yellow or green.

    No mention of services. I can't imagine however that it would be too expensive to replace the leather on the seats. I really like that blue!

    Pretty weird. If the rear shelf wasn't in the same color I'd think that somebody found the Sport seats and put them in later on.

    IF that leather color combo is factory, it's got to be rare. Funny, I normally really do NOT like that kind of deviation, but I could get used to that. I bet if you saw it 'all at once' instead of bits in the photos, it probably coordinates nicely. But that's a personal call. For the price, seems to be an excellent car with good options too.

    you could always just re-dye the leather - it's white, so it's a great place to start from! matching it perfectly would be unlikely, you could go for a dark brown and the deviation wouldn't be so radical. that won't cost a whole lot.

    GREAT deal for a 575 imo assuming the services are up to date. the fact that people freak out over a car that's gotten 5K miles per year on it is crazy.

    The auction isn't over yet. The owner will have someone pop in a bid in the high 140's (at least) before it is, watch.

    It is an M? Arent all 575's 575M's? I thought the M was for Modificata - in other words the 550 was modified into a 575 (or something to that effect).

    I assumed the M he was referring to meant Manual.

    As noted above all 575's are 575M's but not all are stick shifted Manuals.

    Just a thought.

    The "M" is for Maranello. The 550 was also an "M."

    I will disagree.

    The 550 was a "550 Maranello" while a 575 is a "575M Maranello" with the M being the Modification tag.

    Please get a grip on yourselves. You are out of your league. If you don't even know what the car is, how can you know what it is worth. This is a scam. Know this. I would not even let you photograph my '03 575M with intention to buy, for less than $160K.

    You own one? And you don't know what it is! Repeat after me - M = Modificato.
    the 575M Maranello should be removed from your possession immediately while you go to the "Remedial Ferrari Names and Models for Dummies" course at Hot Wheels Community College :)

    I like this color combo. I would bet in the sun and in person the colors would come to gether just fine. An hour left with no bids. I wonder if it is the color, miles or the 575 in general or a combo of all three. For 117 if the car checks out you can't go wrong.

    oh man - you have no idea how boring it is when you're always right.

    darth - time to change that lame-ass .sig of yours, sucka! :) :)

    might i suggest:

    I was wrong twice and that is (1) when I thought I was wrong but I wasn't and (2) when Doody was in da house.

    ;-) ;-)

    doody!
