    Hi! Small update from France. Got my newly resprayed bags for the shelf. They were normal beige and now something reminicent of Crema and what I would say is a 100% match on the color... Very happy with that! I saw another 550 today too outside a local workshop in Cap d’Ail. Probably Blu Nart met. Like new... A good day start with a 15 min drive to the local bakery in Cap d’Ail which is 5 mins from Monaco. Today I had a warm quiche lorraine. Very very good. Lots of calories. :)

    Enzo was a bit unhappy not to get any...

    Enzo is absolutely wasting away. Look at that face! A wastrel, malnourished (just ask him). I agree with Enzo, that quiche looks mighty tasty!!

    Beautiful car. Still keeps it looks, especially from the rear. With that said, personal for eating in the car. Luckily, you posted some beautiful pictures of the coast that it has even made me forget that you were eating in your car and that you were using your phone while apparently driving! What a view! If I had that opportunity, I would be driving through every day!

    Thanks! I don’t eat inside the car. As you can see the lever is in first and the engine is off, so just for the picture. Dogs get all the nutrition and energy from good dry food and it is more practical too, but is must be super boring to do the same food every day. So when something good is around, they wake up instantly... But to feed a dog with our great food is not very smart, because then they will never eat the dry food and the dry food is what gives them what they need. Enzo knows that he can’t get what he wants and that makes him a bit sad as you kan see from his eyes.. a bit envious!

    That last picture is for me by far the view on the 550 that I enjoy most - that VERY sexy rear end with the gearbox oil cooler air intake in the rear view mirror. Just love looking at it at every speed.

    I agree with you. The fact that the whooop (rear wing curve) is not ending at the end of the wing but rather at the last bit of the door is quite interesting. It is like when you open the door, a 1/10 of the wing comes with it. I enjoy very much driving this thing. Just a small trip to the grocery store in Beaulieu is quite fun. The ladies from eastern Europe or Russia living the lazy life at Saint-Jean Cap Ferrat are struggling to get their Rolls Royces or Bentleys out of the garage is quite fun. The parking ticket needs to be scanned at the cashier in the store to be validated in order to make the gate to open. They seem to forget that they are not able to get out. I hit the Italian horn a bit violently to make them get even more panic.:):)

    "Hi! Small update from France. Got my newly resprayed bags for the shelf..."

    Oh...how nice is the 550 in full continental GT mood? With its luggage it looks 100% the granturimso of bygone era, when GT were not too showy, didn't wear ridiculously big wheels and...had 3 pedals...:p

    Manual transmission on a 575 is rare.

    And while I say that… GTO engineering in Southern California still has not returned my email inquiry about doing a 575 F1 to 6MT swap.... I had reached out to them on Instagram, then they told me where explicitly to email, and yet no response… Therefore I’m guessing parts availability and/or interest on another conversion is very low.

    Pretty much in line with everything else that's inflated in value out there right now. At least this is something you can enjoy. :D

    Many 3 pedal 575Ms had minimal options. 141041 pretty much checked every box on the option list except HGTC.
