    Cheers Paul,

    How long ago did you buy your 599? And which dealer??

    I have only seen one RHD for sale in the UK over the past 6 months.

    So far... It's the voter's choice...

    Red is more popular than most would make out.

    Everyone says "Don't buy a 599 in Red" and yet I really like them in red!

    Got it 3 months ago from Meridien. You are right, not many about, I actively did not want Red, Black or Silverstone (not that there is a problem in those colours) as I wanted to keep the car a long time and I know from experience a rarer colour holds you in good stead.

    Got a red 458 mind !

    Of those listed...anything but red. Rosso is not terrible on the 599, but just doesn't fit the character of the car and it's just much more elegant and beautiful in darker colours.

    The Grigio Titanio cars are striking! That would be my favourite I think, can't go wrong with Nero either.

    Nero may "hide the lines" in pics, but certainly not in person. The 599 is wicked in Nero, IMO. I have seen one in Grigio Nuovolare, which was spectacular.

    nirvana!

    my dream car, and an amazing location where you can actually drive it.
    my problem is i live on the gulf of mexico in florida, and only straight roads, lights every hundred yards, and old half-blind arthritic people in minivans from ontario loaded up on oxycodone!

    i need a mountain home with a ferrari in the stable!

    All of the Grigios seem to work well on the 599....this one is Grigio Ingrid. Very rare on 599s (though quite common on 612s) IMO it's stunningly beautiful. Shows the lines very well and is much more elegant and interesting than plain Argento.

    Great looking 599!!

    I saw a 599GTO in Sweden in Ingrid with matte grey roof. Looked fantastic!

    I love this Avorio 599

    Of the four colors in the poll, Grigio Silverstone gets my vote. If I was ordering my 599 tomorrow I'd have a hard time making the choice between Grigio Ferro and Blu TdF.
