    Congrats on the 16M. You will absolutely love it. I stopped in and looked at the car yesterday and talked to Burk. What a great guy..
    It's good to see another 16m headed to the northwest, but it sure is fun driving one in scottsdale.

    Great job on the car you are going to love it and I doubt you regret the choice.

    Welcome to the elite club of a small few.

    Enjoy and keep the rubber side down.

    If it's the one I've seen pictures of on various sites, the pics you posted do not do the car justice :-(

    Simply gorgeous car -- one of a kind!!! Enjoy...

    Not true. That is the third most beautiful 16M. First prize goes to Russ. The second goes to a full carbon 16M which I've only seen in pictures but can't seem to forget.

    You are most kind, but as each lucky owner knows, every 16M is a truly wonderful car and every drive is an experience to be savoured, they are all beautiful and any attempt at comparison really not valid! :)

    However much I like Russell, his Carbon lower outer Sills spoil the party

    I looked at buying that car but couldnt get what I wanted for my 599 from them..My question which they never really answered, was what happened to the 16M badges under the fender shields.? I know its not a big thing but I have yet to see a picture or in the flesh one without them. Love that color though..........

    That is the catch with Ferrari's, (as you well know), once you go look at them in person, you drool, once you test drive them, you are hooked and especialy the 16M.

    I hate to test drive unless i am ready to buy.

    Congrats

    Goodness I forgot how stunning that car is...I kinda miss being able to drive up the road and drool on it! Of course, its getting wet enough up in the pacific northwest (I type from 75 and sunny in scottsdale today - insert tongue sticking out smiley face here.)
