    I'm thinking their offspring would be a 512TR..

    A good successful offspring where parents would be proud would be a 512m

    If a loser offspring and embarrassment to the parents it would be a Testarossa with the mouse belts.

    IL PRIMO above is indeed a curious crossbreed! The owner should paint the engine cover in Rosso Corsa if he wants to complete the illusion of a F512M from behind.

    Saying that, I notice that the Rosso Corsa TR that Chris Harris owns appears to have its engine cover painted in body colour (as opposed to the default black) and whenever I have seen it in one of his periodic reports, I wonder if it left the factory like that or if a previous owner had had it painted.

    Does it need all 6 dampers rebuilt/replaced?

    I note that the car has shields which could cost you a few points at a concours event as they weren't available from the factory from what I have read.

    All dampers being replaced (they were the originals)..front & rear suspension bushes replaced. Shields not factory and not added by me and I wouldn't do so, but I don't particularly mind them as they are already there. New exhaust too, stainless.

    LOL! Although looking at some families, offspring could be anything from a Fiero TR replica to a F50.

    Incidentally I had a 458 Speciale for a week last week. Nice weather in the UK. Looking at the keys for both on Sunday morning for a drive, despite the fact that the 512M is permanent and Speciale temporary, I had to take the M. It's more speciale than the Speciale. (Obviously not nearly as quick.) Worth around the same, too, so thinking of writing this as a semi-serious comparison test in one of the magazines.
