    Well, at least you can say it is probably unique.
    Not too bad actually, for a one-of-a-kind color combo.

    I think black brake calipers would have been the more conservative choice though. :)

    After all it is a Meranello - the special edition of Maranello.

    "Pictures cannot do this car justice."
    "...giving the interior a unique appearance."

    I'll say.

    This is why sometimes allowing your customers to special order what even they want is a bad Idea. As far as the calipers, I think they should be painted green : ) I wonder what the resale hit will be due to this abomination : ) PB

    In Hollywood, if you have the money they will sell it to you.

    at least he drives it. I dont think its that bad.

    Afterall I think I have a love affair with a black bmw 335i coupe with the saddle brown leather interrior. Do you guys think that is just as awkward?

    To each his own I guess, but if you want unique, I bet it's the only 550 in the US with that interior color.

    pics of this car have been posted before. i like it though, its got this old school sartorial style about. sure it might not be for everyone but im really reminded of custom ferraris of the 60's...

    its definitely nowhere close to outlandish when compared to the yellow on yellow 599 or the turquoise on turqouise 599.

    this is cool.

    Wonder what the cost of a re-dye would cost? Black of course.

    I've just bought my own 550, and this one would NOT!! have featured as a possibility.

    The upside is that you wouldn't be able to see if you had vomited in the car, which is a quite likely turn of events.

    It's different, but I wouldn't say it's terrible. There are too many tan interiors out there anyway.

    Probably would look better the other way around. Green w/black interior

    If Red cars with Tan Interior are refered to as Red/Tan then this one is...............Black/Booger.

    I know I am the minority here, but I would take that car over a Red/Tan 550. Black looks stunning on that car, and the green interior is unique, maybe not to everyones taste, but not terrible. Jay-k's Black/Green Enzo is stunning, it just has some more black in the dash to break it up a bit.
