    Hello everyone, I've decided to sell my gated 6 speed manual 599 GTB. Its silver with Black and Red interior and a full carbon fiber package. The car has 5700 miles and just serviced.

    Its my understanding that only 33 of these were made which makes this a somewhat unique car.

    Its been rumored that the manual 599's are difficult to drive. I feel quite the opposite. It was easy to get the hang of it. Its smooth and comfortable to manage in traffic. It certainly doesn't shift as fast as the F1's. However, its a visceral and fun experience.

    I have removed the secondary cats and replaced them with straight pipes from Fabspeed. I additionally removed the the mufflers and installed a muffler delete system. The car sounds unreal and supposedly picked up about 45 Hp.

    Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions. The best way will be to PM me.

    Thanks for looking

    Beautiful car!

    I have a manual 599 GTB with the HGTE package which I purchased in Belgium a couple of years ago. The car is in the UK now.

    I would be interested to know how you get on.

    Dang, and I just purchased my 599 last month. Would have loved to have the manual instead of the F1.

    Beautiful car. GLWS

    I've driven a manual 599, they do drive nicely, the gearbox really changes the car, seems to make it less of a GT more of a sportscar. interested to see how you get on...
