    Guys, just got a F599 HGTE from a local collector with warranty and inspection done by local dealer. As I login to the owner website, the color of the cars says Rosso Scuderia but the sticker under my hood shows Rosso Corsa. From my eye inspection, I think mine is the Rosso Scuderia but I am asking the dealer to confirm now. What’s the chance the sticker was wrong? I am very surprised. I have done inspection and the paint looks perfect. What do you guys think? Image Unavailable, Please Login

    Your car is Rosso Corsa compared to the F12 in the back - I would suggest.

    By the way beautiful color and painting!

    You can buy these color sticker for eg at Eurospares - but I dont think that someone made a joke.

    You really can't go by the owners web site. According to it my F355 had black carpets. The build sheet says tan. The window sticker says tan. The car say tan.

    If it looks like rosso corsa, it is. Rosso Scuderia is more orange (right below).

    Thanks guys. So in my case looks the the website is wrong and the sticker is right. Does it matter? Should I get (if that’s even possible) Ferrari to change the record? Not sure if that might cause confusion down the road.


    Yes I love the color and the precious collector kept it in very good condition :) putting on some ppf over th bumper and hood as I got a few stone chip already over first run;) plan to drive it whenever I can ;)

    Thx guys. Dealer confirmed the color indeed is RC332. Very happy with the color and condition! I guess not much I can do about the owner website info

    Very nice car and spec! Was this the 0 hand one sold at carcity last month? My friend and I saw a very well maintained one there and apparently we were the last to see it before it went to a lucky new owner

    Yes indeed. Very well maintained with most key items replaced already; the HGTE package was lovely to help with handling for a car this size. Had put on almost 800 km since then :)

    These collector cars only come up once every few years, congrats again on the great purchase!

    Even with 800km you are still well below 10000km
