Test driving on Monday

Hello all,
I'm taking this one for a test drive on Monday. I'm not sold on the colour,but it's a very pretty car. I do think a bit pricey though.
I would do a ppi of course.
Any thoughts?
All advice is appriciated.

Thanks,
Bill

Beautiful car - I think most would find it one of the most desirable colors, actually. What color would you prefer? I really wanted blue or black, ended up with red. I'm sure once you drive it, you won't care as much about the color anyway. Let us know what you think.

 

It may just be the poor lighting, but I'm almost positive that is Pozzi Blu and not TDF blue, I do however prefer pozzi blu. A friend has a pozzi 550 with navy/dark tan interior and it is one of the most beautiful cars I've ever seen. If it were mine I'd paint the caliper black on that one.

 

Bill- Looks nice and 136606 should have most of the late model updates. Some info. You can interpolate the Assembly Number.

yes.... I also think the car is Pozzi, Pozzi almost look like black in certain lightconditions

 

Mudflaps on a Ferrari!!!!!!!!!!
They also have a 6 speed gated one.

 

That's my favorite color combination on a Maranello. That's also top dollar. For that price, I would want every conceivable option and every possible maintenance item, including fresh wiper fluid, to have been done yesterday. Oh, and the condition would need to be concours platinum +.

 

I think it actually is TdF with imaging done on a really gloomy day. The interior appears to be Crema instead of Beige, beloved in the UK, Australia, and, apparently, Canada. The blue interior trim brightens up the interior.

 

I agree Taz. In that light, Pozzi should look black. Under "Comments" section says it is TdF. I have a Crema interior on a BMW and it looks like that.

Very pricey $$$! for no modular wheels and no HGTC.

Personally, I'd prefer the Pozzi Blue 6-speed 575M with modular wheels that they are asking $15K less for. The 6-speed 456M looks pretty nice, too.

 

The 6 speed is more of a non metallic "navy" blue. not a lot of depth to it. I love the stick,but I don't think I could live with that blue interior.

I think the other is a BEAUTIFUL car. The metalic paint is incredible. Interior is impeccable. I'm just a sucker for these cars in argento or titanio.

who knows...If it stops raining here in hog town by tomorrow morning blue just might be my new favourite colour!

Regardless of what color you try I bet you will get out of the car with a smile on your face.

 

Taz,

The colour is tdf as you can see the metallic. Pozzi as you would be aware does not have metallic in it.

Regarding the leather this is much harder to pick. I think that it could in fact be Sabbia....

My interior is sabbia and that looks pretty close.

Could be. That image looks familiar.

 

Am I showing off too much?

 

Allan- No, your hard drive just looks like mine. Save all useful information and images.

 

I just realized you were probably referring to the leather sample case in the first place; not my posting of my car's interior

 

Affirmative.

 

Looks like a great car. Love TDF and Crema. You won't be able to resist once you drive that beauty. Good luck!

 

What a car! It wouldn't take to long to love the F1 transmition.
I love to TDB ,but the blue / tan interior just isn't for me. I know it's a minor complaint,but at that price I need to love evey aspect of the car.
The search continues.

 

Bill- Better luck on the next one.

 

Thanks, I have my eye on a couple of good ones! The search is half the fun though!
