575 Technical Thread

John- In that case, we will just leave it where it is so we always have an updated version. Guess I could always reference that thread.

 

John- I cannot find the dedicated thread after quite a few searches. Can you point it out to me?

 

Taz, having a "senior moment", eh? I know all about those too.....

Here it is, you started it last week: http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/456-550-575/427202-550-575m-differences.html

 

John- Well, crud. Had no trouble finding that one, but I thought you had one where you posted the updated differences sheets. If you post the latest one there, I will post it here and reference that thread.

Do you keep track of changes? I had to do that for my two on SN vs AN and 575 updates or I got lost.

 

I have just purchased a 575m hgtc 2005 in yellow it's rhd and in Thailand the numbers are build 59493 and vin 141692, she has done 14,000kms, Ian

 

Ian- Thanks and will add her to the list tomorrow. I assume she is a "C" in the VIN UK RHD car? Also assume she has an F1 shifter? Would love to see photos, Giallo Modena is my favorite Maranello color.

 

I was wondering how close this is to the last made? Ian

 

Hi Taz, yes she has the F1 shift, I will get you that photo, agree the colour looks great! Ian

 

Ian- Very close to the last one. I only see four so far that are older, with some serial numbers missing. I would estimate she is in the last 10 built, probably less, with the last two being 141817 and possibly 141822.

 

Hi Taz, here she is, I confirm she is a C market. Ian

Loved to see the last ones of the breed with Ian's yellow in Thailand and the ones Bill found in Switzerland.

Question for the super experts team here….I noticed that both Ian's yellow ones and the red one in Switzerland have body colored front spoilers and bottom (in other words the bottom trim line is not flat black like in all the others). Did they delete the flat black trim in the last factory run and painted them all in body color?

By the way, Ian congrats on the car, especially such amazing car in Thailand. I lived in Singapore and was often in BKK. Loved Thailand. Spectacular place and people. I hope your AC works well!!!

Congratulations again.

Hi Matthew,
Thanks, the acu seems fine so far, but it's cool season, only 35C. Looking forward to some long runs, she ran great on her new Pirelli's this morning on the expressway.
Ian

 

Matthew- The late 575Ms were built concurrently with the Superamericas, which have body colored bottom trim instead of black. Photographic evidence indicates some were painted like the Superamericas, some like the early 575Ms, and some even have mixed paint jobs, like 141817, which has the black paint on the sills and rear bumper, but not on the front spoiler. Of course, that front bumper could have been repainted, but the black is usually restored when that is done. Here are photos of 141817, the last 575M I can confirm until I get details on 141822.

I know of at least a couple of 575M owners who have had the bottoms painted body color.

Ian- She is beautiful and that makes the second Giallo Modena HGTC seen in only the last week. The other one has traditional 575M paint (except for the Italian flag racing stripe) as seen below.

Hi Taz,
Thanks for updating the lists, I have to say that I have owned many cars, Porsche, Bentley, Aston and have never experienced such a feeling of involvement, what you do really enhances the whole ownership experience, you can really feel the passion!
Cheers,
Ian

 

Ian- Nothing quite like a V12 Ferrari, so know how you feel.

 

Hi Taz-

Proud new owner of 575: 130629 - 47766 Manual

Bought from Autosport Designs Inc.

Car is stored in Chicago

Thanks,

Derik Oakley

 

Derik- Already have her on the list, but would love to see some photos. The only thing I have on her is the window sticker, and that shows her to be very well equipped for a 3 pedal 575M.

Just confirmed with Carbon that ZFFBV55B450141822 was a red/tan Euro 575M. That makes 141822 the last 575M for which I have information and 141817 the last US 575M. We know 141818 was a Superamerica, so will have to keep checking to confirm there were not any later 575Ms. Updated list including that information attached.

Thanks for that, don't have the sticker

Do you have any more or hi-res you could email?

I don't have many yet but have been trying to post pictures from photobucket but only shows link line and not the actual pic. I've tried all the copy links but obviously I'm doing something wrong…

Congratulations gentlemen!

Gr. Martin

 

I HAVE VIN # 134144 WHERE WOULD I FIND THE ASSEMBLY #?

 

In front of the engine.

Derik- Unfortunately, I got the window sticker off the web when a dealer had her for sale, so only have the low res image I posted. You might ask whoever you bought her from if they still have the sticker or it may be in your owners manual pouch. You can order a window sticker from the dealer who originally sold her if you cannot find the one in the photo. Grigio Titanio with Blu Scuro interior.

Hi Taz,
Is the photo that you attached something specific for the the US market, I notice lots of gas mileage info in addition to OE info etc., I have been trying to get paperwork from local factory importer but no success as yet.
Thanks,
Ian.
