    I’ve owned mine for almost 8 years now. It’s a great car. Perfect to use as a daily driver. I dont think I will ever sell her. It has more than enough horsepower, the F1 transmission is great (F1 superfast = very fast shifting). Great seats/interior as well. In other words: I love my 599 :)

    You will not regret getting a 599. Can be driven in a docile manner or wild if the mood takes you. Interior is still classy and luxurious to this day. Love mine.

    LOVE LOVE LOVE my 599. Doubt I'll ever sell it. For me it is the best of all worlds.....elegant when I want it, or blisteringly fast when I need it and the sound is intoxicating! (I just installed a Fabspeed secondary cat delete set of pipes on it and WOW does it sound great.

    There's a ton of great info in the 599 section. Spend some time there researching old threads.

    I have always regretted selling mine. It was an amazing car, and for me, a perfect start to Ferrari ownership. I used it to travel from Spain to the UK and back regularly and it was comfortable in the long journeys and easy to drive. Mine had a couple of electrical problems early on but those were sorted under warranty. It's still a beautiful car to see.

    I liken the 599 to an Enzo in a tailored suit. One moment it can be docile and calm, the next it becomes an angry supercar. The reach of the V12 is simply amazing.
