Right, unfortunatly no diversication of colour and shields. Even not by wheels (despite the fact, that the Barchetta has 18' inch wheels). Saluti, Jürgen
Clyde- No, she is a 575M. Not sure everybody has seen these photos, stolen from some magazine's site (sorry, Darius). Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Great shots. Isn't that the same site that had the 550 v 599 series? Nice to see sizes are coming down again. I think the F12 is a worthy successor of the Maranellos, 599 not so much in my opinion.
The 550/575 is certainly a very pure, not stylized design. And having just purchased a 599 (also have a 1999 550), while it is indeed larger, it is one heckuva car - very fast, great brakes, exquisite handling. These pictures are terrific -- thanks for posting.
I think you posted those before Terry (or someone else did), great photos and great comparison. That's what I call a hat trick. Clyde
My friend and amateur photographer Mike Mauro took this photo of my 575 last year and I finally had it printed on 60"x40" aluminum plate and hung up in my garage with my other photos. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login

Great photos and good to see a side by side comparison of style and size. As a side note a 599 is very close in size to a 456.
Graeme- The wheelbase on the 599 is actually longer, at 2750 mm, than that of the 456/456M at 2600 mm. That was done to get the engine further back in the chassis for better weight distribution. The 612 has a 2950 mm wheelbase for more room for the engine and more room for rear passengers, so it is really long.
I've never seen a 575 in white before, it looks beautiful! (as does the grey 360 as well, but I've seen those before) Clyde
I stand corrected Terry, A closer look reveals you are right and it is an F430. The darker colour must have thrown me off. Clyde
Martin- Bianco Avus was a standard color for Maranellos. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
