    The switch takes 2 people about two hours to do. You have to be very careful not to scratch the roll hoops when the rear engine quarter cover goes back on.

    Summer heat is only a problem when you are sitting. With a bit of speed and the AC on, I have never been uncomfortable (not that you notice much other than the horizon fast approaching and the beast howling right behind your cranium).

    I'm sure you'll enjoy the magnificient F50, I got the chance to have a passenger ride last summer and it was mindblowing.

    The F50 is easily the best looking super-Ferrari IMO.

    Remember first seeing one as a kid in Puerto Banus/Marbella, Spain (anyone around here know the history of that car, or have any pictures?)

    Great garage you've got there, have fun. =]

    Thanks guys, had it out for some fun today....insane sound above 4k rpms, and wonderfully responsive ! Shifts quite easily even when cold and the 6th gear is a nice bonus :)

    Got to spend some time exercising OCD cleaning today, and snapped some pics :)

    Jas, wonderful pics!

    How would you compare the F50 to the CGT so far?

    When do you plan to do the Tubi & straight pipes?! :D

    Congrats again!

    Jas, those shots are simply amazing man!

    You have quite the collection! Are you done now? Or do you still have something you want to add to the stable?

    The F50 may be the most underrated super Ferrari but I think anyone who has seen one close up will agree it's breathtaking. Congrats Jas.

    Now take her her top off!!! :D
