    boy - that's AWFULLY black!

    did they muck with the rear and side lights too to make them darker? can't tell for sure from the snaps.

    a bit too much for me, but i can understand the draw.

    if you clicked the snaps they'd send you to the full-size pics

    here's a mod list:
    stock black wheels - love them
    blacked out rear taillights - hate
    blacked out rear prancing horse - hate

    not sure the stock color of the lens for the side turn signal but he might have smoked that out too

    The car belongs to one Mr Jean Todt. If you think that is bad taste, you should see his 612 Scaglietti....it defies description it is soooo ugly. Metallic pearlescent mauve, incl the wheels, dash seat frames with blue nubuck leather and yellow shields..........

    Hi Peter ,

    Is that license plate from Imola ?

    Jean Todt has some special Ferraris. They all are unique.
    How many Ferraris does ha have ? I know his Enzo is often in Paris.

    The tail lights are too much. I LOVE how the red is contrasted so sharply by the black on black cars.

    Indeed. You can't see the car. Contrast is good, especially on a shape as smooth as the 575. Black wheels make it look like a big, black, blob. Unfortunate. And it's Jean Todt's? Sacrilege.


    Forza,

    would have been perfect if he left the tail light reverse and indicator lights white instead of tinting the whole lens.

    In my opinion, black wheels look ugly on any car.
