You must have been blinded by the stunning beauty of my car because it was in the first post. It's a 2000 (first registered 1st August). madFerrariFan - glad you like them, I still love looking at that shape myself. Onno
Wow...Didn't know Smurfs ordered new 550s...Thank goodness Mary K Cosmetics still sticks with Caddies... ketel

In response to the PMs I have been receiving about the pics of my car. Yes, it is lower, as a result of the Fiorano (FHP) package. Before you ask, this is the list of package from the factory, which I hear can also be added to a non FHP 550 from Ricambi.

Sorry I don't have a picture bigger or better than this one, but anyone know what color this is. LOVE IT! I also love the interior. The pic was taken at Texas World Speedway and the car had been driven quite a few sessions on track. Very cool! I would LOVE to find a 456 in this color! It may be hard to tell, but it is more of a dark red and it is non-metallic. Best, James Austin, TX Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Yes, I love the deeper, darker Red also. I think it's Amaranto. On the earlier cars it was called Rosso Rubino. It's a way to have a Red Ferrari without it being "first Ferrari red".....Just kidding!!....Please, no flame mail. ketel
Jsuit - Any chance you could get us pics of the interior parts--especially the new bits and pieces? Also..would you mind telling us what this aftermarket FHP on our 550 set you back--parts and installation? Don't worry, I am already sitting down. ketel
Ketel, Totally agree. I do want a first Ferrari Red (or resale red if you prefer) for my first one though...THEN I want Amaranto 456 GTA! I wonder if any 456's were made in that color? I doubt it...but a guy can dream can't he?! James Austin, TX
