    Boy, am I glad my wife does not know how to get to this site.

    The 360 would be kicked to the curb in a heart beat if she saw this.

    Beautiful car, and well driven. Very tempting! My dream as a longtime Ferrari enthusiast is a 355 Berlinetta (V8) and a 550 Maranello (V12), for the best of both worlds. Halfway there with my 1998 Rosso Fiorano 355 F1 Berlinetta which I've had for 6 years now, but not quite in a position to buy this car.
    GLWS.

    This was my goal as well. I also have a 98 355 F1 and just added a 99 550 this year. :)

    This 550 is a beauty though. I love Rosso Barchetta...one of my favourite colours. Good luck with the sale. :)

    Somebody needs to buy this car. I have one and feel that based on fun factor alone this front engine, V12 with the gated shifter provides one of the purest driving experiences you can have. These 550's mix old school and just enough modern technology to make a GREAT driving automobile!

    It's interesting that people who love the f355 also love the 550. It gets back to the analog driving experience rather than the new, somewhat detached, digital experience. I love this car! Currently driving a gated f355 B and lovin' it also.
