    Too bad there is a guy on the pic because that grey GTo is the absolute perfection for me...

    Too soon to tell but the gearbox in the GTO is something else.

    The sound and gearbox is most definitely it's party piece.

    Based on current facts and figures chances are not small, that this might be the only 599 GTO in the US in genuine 4153GT livery...on a global scale there are also only just 8 other cars (6x LHD + 2x RHD) known painted that proper way!

    Amazing! As I have been collecting data on this exact fact, I too have the exact same numbers. But yes I was told specifically that this is the only U.S. car with this livery.

    My records show - 3 German cars, 2 Swiss, 1 French, and 2 UK. But I'm using license plates not serial numbers. Marcel Massini should know?

    There's a second US spec car in this livery, but it's missing the white rounds.

    License plates can be deceiving unfortunately...here is what I currently know in terms of the original destination:

    LHD
    Germany - later modified by Novitec
    Sweden (carbon side skirts and wheel center caps)
    Germany (black calipers)
    France (carbon side skirts and black rims)
    Great Britain (new to a London resident from the Middle East)
    Switzerland - unknown s/n to date

    RHD
    Great Britain (carbon side skirts and black rims)
    Great Britain

    Would that be the swiss car by chance with the "7" in the white circle...as all other above listed cars do have a different serial number?!

    Thanks

    Correction: 177643 it is (not 177634). Sorry for fat fingers.
