    Very nice. I really like the color scheme on the SA. Any more pics of the "cracked" 599? Is it paint or a wrap, looks pretty interesting.

    I believe the 599 was a very limited edition for China from memory only 5 and it was painted. There were some very old Chinese Characters near the front air vent but alas it was ancient Chinese so even with our local friends none of them could read it! The 458 is to celebrate 20 years of Ferrari in China, and as it is year of the Dragon....

    there is only one of the car painted in the cracked porcelain. it was hand painted by the chinese contemporary artist lu hao for ferrari who then auctioned the car for a charity to send chinese automotive engineers to design school in italy and then apprentice at ferrari. there were 10 599 china editions also designed by lu hao which had some of the features of the one off such as the jade starter button, instruments with chinese characters (only ferraris ever made with instruments not in english numbers), map of maro polo route in boot, special wheels, etc. the 10 cars are red with grey roof

    Wow that is interesting, so it is the only one, it was all a bit of a rush taking pictures as it was about to rain, and boy did it rain!
