    The 550 finally had the Tubi’s installed and the car finally sounds like an F car.

    What I love is the resonance when you stand behind the car at idle.

    However when I picked up the car the Ferrari garage was closed so I had to walk into the shop to pick up the car.

    Now I love my 550 and think it is one of the best looking Ferraris, however in the corner of the garage was a pearl white and blue car that was some thing I had never seen before in my life.

    It was longer then the Ferrari, lower and wider.

    As I walked up to it became apparent that it was an MC 12.
    The car was in transit but wow, what a car.

    I took some picks of it but am having uploading it to the site.

    Wow, a Masarati MC 12 in the flesh in Vancover BC.

    Glad to here you finally got the tubis on the 550...worth the wait!

    I also saw the MC 12 at my dealership in Toronto, same colouring...very nice I agree!!

    Enjoy the new exhaust, it really adds alot to the 550.

    Yip, Ferrari of Ontario still has their MC12! I wonder, does it belong to Remo? Do all they cars in the Galleria belong to him, or tare they just up there becuase they're "special."

    I'm pretty sure all MC12s came in that same blue/white coloured exterior, except of this rumoured all Grey one.

    Ammz,

    I think the MC12 belongs to Remo, but I can't say whether all the cars belong to him, although I wouldn't doubt it. He has quite the collection based on the cars on the 2nd floor.

    That MC12 in Vancouver belongs to a owner in Beverly Hills, California. Its only staying until they get the customs things worked out.

    Am i the only one who thinks the MC12 is horrifically ugly? It looks like it was designed in the 1980s to look futuristic.

    Is that picture real?
    If so, and if it shows every MC12, then why are so many of the cars being delivered now?
    Or have I got it completely wrong and that was just the first batch

    That's only the first batch, 25 produced in 2004. And another set of 25 in 2005. Making the total Production 50.
