    If its the same one, they've had that car listed for a long time now, it was for sale when I bot mine 6 mos ago. price is way high for a 10k mile car IMO.

    I can't help but, perhaps if you post this in the Florida section you might get a better response. Good Luck!

    I live in Naples and going to Orlando this friday. I am going to the Celebration car show. I imagine Central Florida with have a display with their used cars. I will keep a look out for it and take pictures.

    Greg, i would really appriciate it. Maybe talk up the staff and get the scoop on the car. Wonder why it has been listed for so long? Makes me wonder if there is a story. Thanks for the reply

    I am sorry to say that the 550 was not at the show. FCF had a 575 and some Maserati Qports. That's it. They were also delivering a 599.

    Thanks anyway Greg. Sounds like all you guys had fun in Orlando over the weekend. I guess I may have to hop a US Air flight and go myself. I cannot believe no one seems to have seen this car. It has been listed and apparently in their showroom for almost 6 months. It just helps to get an educated unbiased opinion sometimes.

    I would call FCF and talk to them about the car or get an independent inspection before you fly down. I did meet the owner of FCF at Homestead, FL about a month ago. He seems to be a no nonsense kind of guy. He loves Ferrari's and he gets it. FCF prices look little high, typical of a dealer. See if all the services are done, especially the major and by whom.One thing is certain with used Ferrari's. You pay now or you pay later. It's priceless to get a well sorted car. Trust me I know!!
    Good Luck
    Greg
