    As a new owner of a 2002 575M as of Sept 2013, I naturally have searched for some historical and reading material on the car. Most articles seem to focus more on the 550 but not the 575M, and though I like the 550, I want to read about the 575M. There doesn't seem to be much out there. Amazon lists 3 books which may have some material and I'm wondering if anyone has read either of these or can recommend another?:

    Ferrari All the Cars: A Complete Guide by Leonardo Acerbi (Mar 1 2012)

    Ferrari by Larry Edsall and Dennis Adler (July 17 2011)

    The Road Ferraris: A Complete Story by Anthony Pritchard (Oct 1 2013)

    No I haven't, do you know where I can get those? Is it something I might find on eBay?

    Hi Taz,

    I just received the soft back brochure for the 575M and happy you advised me about it. Its in Italian throughout with a translation to English and French at the back. Well worth the price except for the shipping fee, but I'm happy I bought it all the same. I wonder if I should consider getting the hardback original on the 550, even though its not my car?

    Clyde- The chassis and body on the 550 are very similar to the 575M and the development process was for both cars since the 575M is an update of the 550. Worth having, even though I have not gotten around to it yet.
