575M FIORANO??

How can you visually tell if you are looking at a 2003 575M Fiorano? Can any one tell by V.I.N.? or just options? How much value may it add to a Maranello?? Thanks so much for all reply's--

 

The vin will tell. If they are moving the brakes squeak like a mofo. Visually, they are a bit lower and they come standard with red calipers but lots of 575's are optioned with them.

 

I do not believe the VIN will tell whether a 575 has the FHP. I think the only way to really tell is to explore the car. Check the springs and the steering ECU. Ricambi has a PDF of what parts are different between a standard and FHP but as far as I know there is no obvious way.

I think you can also tell from the tail pipes. All the cars I have seen with that package appear to have larger tailpipes that almost appear to be two ply. I might be wrong in that all those cars have aftermarket exhaust as well, but every one I have seen in person share this trait.

 

Your referring to the US ('05 only) 575 HGTC Package.

 

That's on the GTC.

 

The VIN will denote all factory installed options. This is not to say that one of the #'s or letters in the VIN is an indication however, Ferrari SpA or FNA can confirm options through the VIN.

True enough.

If the car is on a lift, look on the inside aspect of the shocks and it will say (IIRC ) USA Racing.

Do the wheels have to come off?
