    Anyone in the Bay Area have a FF they could show me and go for a quick drive - Should I sell my 599 for one? They seem like a great car that's very usable and the PTU now has a couple alternatives to fix should it go down. I am in San Francisco, but happy to drive a little.

    Can’t help you with the test drive but the answer to trading your 599 for an FF is Yes.

    I asked my indy (who is an expert on the 599) if we should replace my wife’s Cali with a 599. He told me that when we took the 599 out, we’d always wonder why we hadn’t taken the FF instead…

    FF no worth, Gtc4lusso is better for daily use and design is much better, but make sure it's have air ventilation of seats

    That's a personal taste. My preference is for the FF!

    599 for FF, interesting question but can say that for me the FF is the greatest car ever. Does everything right and still remains a daily driver with no issues. And if something happens you just blame the battery, lol.

    lusso is a great car and much more refined. It's the rawness of the FF that I love.

    599 to F12 seems like the better move

    Thanks for the offer. I ended up buying one this week and kept the 599. I will drive them back to back for a while and see which I prefer. I got a Rubino colored one, what color is yours?

    Can't really afford that. The f12 are so pricey right now.

    I may also venture to say it sounds better. At least mine does with full Novitec exhaust:)

    Rubino is lovely. One of the really classy reds. Mine is Pozzi Blu.

    Now that you’ve bought it, photos are mandatory!
